Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it

Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
If you look around
The whole world's coming together now (yeah)

Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it

Feel it in the air
The wind is taking it everywhere (yeah)

Can you feel it (yeah yeah)
Can you feel it (yeah yeah)
Can you feel it (yeah)

All the brothers of the world should be
Loving each other whole heartidly
Yes its alright
Take my mentor? to your borthers and tell him twice (uh huh)

Spread the word and try to teach the man
Who's hating his brother when hate won't do
'Cause we're all the same
Yes the blood inside of me is inside of you (come on now tell me)

Can you feel it (help me)
Can you feel it (come on)
Can you feel it

(Can you see what's going down)Can you feel it
(Can you feel it in your bones)Can you feel it
Can you feel it

Every breath you take
Is some ones death in another place (yeah)

Every healthy smile
Is hunger and strife to another child (yeah)

But the stars to shine
In promise and salvation is near the time (yeah yeah)





Can you feel it now
So brothers and sisters should we know how
