Tell me how do you feel Oh when you see your people die How do you feel When you hear hungry babies cry You say you don’t know why But have you been asking once ? How can you close your eyes ? Isn’t your heart beating like mine ? Isn’t your heart beating like mine ? My friend i beg you to look twice Oh can’t you see they have no choice ? Tell me tell me how many times They will have to pay the price ? Brothers and sisters open your mind Does life worst so much sacrifice ? Isn’t your heart beating like mine ? Isn’t your heart beating like mine ? Like mine, like mine Isn’t your heart Isn’t like mine And flesh and bones Like all human beings Tell me how do you feel Those who cross seas for better life Why must dem pay it the cost of their life ? Isn’t your heart beating like mine ? Isn’t your heart beating like mine ? Like mine, like mine Isn’t your heart Isn’t like mine
