We Are All One
Jimmy Cliff Lyrics

Oh, we all are one, we are the same person
No matter who we are or where we come from, we are all connected and share the same humanity.

I'll be you, you'll be me (Oh, yeah)
We should strive to understand and empathize with each other by imagining ourselves in other people's shoes.

We all are one, same universal world
Despite our cultural differences and unique experiences, we are all part of the same universal human family.

No matter where we are born, we are human beings
Our place of birth does not define us, but rather our shared human experience and ability to feel emotions and connect with others.

The same chemistry where emotions and feelings
We share a universal chemistry in our bodies and brains that allows us to experience a range of emotions and connect with others.

All corresponding in love compatible
Our capacity for love and connection makes us all compatible with one another, regardless of our differences.

You can't get around it, no matter how hard you try
No matter how much we may try to deny or ignore our shared humanity and connection to others, it remains true and cannot be avoided.

And if you should find out that you are no different than I
If we take the time to truly understand and connect with each other, we may come to realize that we are more similar than different.

The only difference I can see is in the conscience
While we share a common humanity, our differences may lie in our beliefs, values, and morals.

And the shade of our skin doesn't matter
The color of our skin should not define us or dictate how we are treated, as we are all equal in our shared humanity.

We laugh, we chatter, we smile, we all live for
We all share basic human experiences such as joy, conversation, and the desire to live life to the fullest.

And the feelings that make all those faces always renew
Our emotions and experiences are constantly evolving and renewing, but at the core we all share the same human experience.

And would you believe that I have all those same feelings too
We should strive to connect with others by recognizing our shared emotions and experiences, as we are all more similar than different.

Look at the children, they're having fun with no regards to why
Children have the ability to see past differences and connect with others through play and joy, without questioning why they should or should not connect.

They all look different but deep inside
While children may physically appear different from one another, they are all similar in their capacity for joy and connection with others.

Their feelings of love they don't hide
Children openly express their feelings of love and connection with others, and this is something we should strive to emulate as adults.

We all are one (You know, I know)
We are all aware, on some level, of our shared humanity and connection to others.

We are the same person (We all know, oh, yeah)
Despite our differences, we share a common humanity that makes us all part of the same human family.

I'll be you, you'll be me (Oh, yeah)
We should strive to understand and empathize with each other by imagining ourselves in other people's shoes.

Same universal (Same person)
Our shared universal experience connects us all and makes us part of the same human story.

I'll be you, you'll be me
We should strive to understand and empathize with each other by imagining ourselves in other people's shoes.

We all are one (Emotions and feelings)
Despite our differences, we are all united through our shared capacity for experiencing emotions and feelings.

Same universal (All corresponding to love)
Love is a universal language that connects us all, and it is something we should strive to cultivate in our relationships with others.
