Can't you see what's going on "POWER"

Une seul unitй, une seul penser,
Un seul monde et pourtant
Je vois des gens se dйchirer,
Faire la guerre pour rien d important
Y a rien de censer
J allume la tele et je ferme les yeux
Je vois trop de mиre qui pleure,
Les gens ont peur, et trop de peuple armй
(Brahim:)I take my sword "Waterman"
Et mon bouclier feuille de papier
Je pars en guerre contre la haine,
Au nom paix et de l unitй
Plus j avance et je me rends compte,
Que le combat et loing d etre fini
Mais pour l amour du peuple humain,
Au quotidien c est toute une vie

Wake up, wake up it's time
To open up those eyes of yours
Think about the waste of time
They put in battling endless wars!
We got the right to stand up and fight
For the sake of the innocent children who cry
Seeking divine guidance, I
Raise my eyes up to the sky

Brahim et Rtbang

Soyons pour une fois tous unies
Car pour nous 1+1 fait 1
Et sa pour toute la vie

The best song in this year´s preselection

Spinningwheel07

There was much talent available to send to Eurovision, but unfortunately Belgium got to send someone else. Brahim could have made it though. I feel sorry for him.

kimmeke89

SVDC

Pride Option World Equal Respect

LordRefugeMindhunter

ik denk dat het gewoon komt omdat het een andere genre is. nu is hij meer bezig met de soul inplaats van r&b. dus beide hebben brahim erin gewoon andere stijl. khad dit liedje wel liever gehad verleden jaar naar het eurosong. grtz

chakirovitch

Dit echt wel tien keer beter dan kate ryan!! hij had veel beter gescoord met deze hit !!

Fatima Neeman

Ja duh! Mss omdat hij turks is. Typisch België
