We Are One
Jennifer Lopez Pitbull Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Put your flags up in the sky (put them in the sky)
And wave them side to side (side to side)
Show the world where you're from
(Show 'em where you're from)
Show the world we are one (one, love, life)

Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola

When the going gets tough
The tough get going
One love, one life, one world
One fight, whole world, one night, one place
Brazil, everybody put your flags
In the sky and do what you feel

It's your world, my world, our world today
And we invite the whole world, whole world to play
It's your world, my world, our world today
And we invite the whole world, whole world to play

Es mi mundo, tu mundo, el mundo de nosotros
Invitamos a todo el mundo a jugar con nosotros

Put your flags up in the sky (put 'em in the sky)
And wave them side to side (side to side)
Show the world where you're from (show them where you're from)
Show the world we are one (one love, life)

Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola

(Jenny) one night watch the world unite
Two sides, one fight and a million eyes
Full heart's gonna work so hard
Shoot, fall, the stars fists raised up towards the sky
Tonight watch the world unite, world unite, world unite
For the fight, fight, fight, one night
Watch the world unite
Two sides, one fight and a million eyes

Hey, hey, hey, forza forza come and sing with me
Hey, hey, hey, ole ola come shout it out with me
Hey, hey, hey, come on now
Hey, hey, hey, come on now
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Put your flags up in the sky (put 'em in the sky)
And wave them side to side (side to side)
Show the world where you're from (show them where you're from)
Show the world we are one (one love, life)

Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola
Ole ole ole ola

Claudia Leitte, obrigado

É meu, é seu
Hoje é tudo nosso
Quando chega o mundo inteiro pra jogar é pra mostrar que eu posso
Torcer, chorar, sorrir, gritar
Não importar o resultado, vamos extravasar

Put your flags up in the sky (put 'em in the sky)
And wave them side to side (side to side)
Show the world where you're from (show them where you're from)
Show the world we are one (one love, life)

Ole ole ole ola

Overall Meaning

The song "We Are One" by Jennifer Lopez, Claudia Leitte, and Pitbull is an anthem celebrating unity and global diversity. The lyrics encourage listeners to put their flags up in the sky and show the world where they're from, while also recognizing that ultimately we are all one.

The song opens by encouraging listeners to proudly display their flags and wave them side to side to show where they come from. However, it goes on to emphasize that despite our differences, we are all part of the same world and should join together in unity. The section that follows describes the difficulty of fighting for what you believe in, but emphasizes that ultimately it's a fight that the whole world is in together. The chorus repeats the call to put our flags up and show the world we are one, while the bridge features Claudia Leitte singing in Portuguese, celebrating the inclusivity of the song and the global community it represents.

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

@Listtall

I don't think any world cup will hit as deep and fill me with as much joy as the 2010 and 2014 ones. The first being in an African country where there is so much culture and meaning to hosting, then the second being in arguably the home of football. Now we have them in deserts where stadiums are built on the bodies of workers :(
