Love
Junior X Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why don't we live in love?
Cherish life the greatest gift
From the most high up above
A Nation that stands divided shall fall,
United in defeat in defeat
The message is, give love and receive
The world is so tense "every man-a-hold-him side-
Yes, everyone is against each other when,
We should be each others keeper
The distance between us we must fill that space
with love
The lyrics of Junior X's song "Love" explore the theme of unity and love. The opening line "If love is the answer my question is, why don't we live in love?" suggests that love is the solution to many of the problems faced by society. The next line "Cherish life the greatest gift from the most high up above" refers to the importance of valuing the gift of life and recognizing that it comes from a higher power.
The third line "A Nation that stands divided shall fall, united in defeat in defeat" points towards the dangers of division and disunity within a nation. The following message is to give love, and in return, receive it. The world is filled with tension, and people are divided, but we should be each other's keepers instead of holding fences to keep people out.

Whenever i listen to this song memories of 2007 election of our beloved kenya lingers my mind. Love had died and every was against each other. Innocent children, mothers, fathers were killed and over 500000 people were displaced.
But to Almighty we give thanks and praise that we healed and the gap between us we filled it we love❤❤❤
what a song.... surely it was meant for us Kenyan during 2007 post elections
