Song Lyrics

Let's not forget this place
Let's not neglect our race
Let unity become
Life on earth be one
So let me take your hand
We are but grains of sand
Born through the winds of time
Given a special sign

So let's take a stand
And look around us now people
Let's take a stand
And look around us now people

[Chorus:]
Hey yeah oh hey yeah oh hey yeah oh by yeah
To a different beat
Hey yeah oh hey yeah oh hey yeah oh by yeah

Humanity's lost face
Let's understand its grace
Each day one at a time
Each life, including mine

Let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
So let's take a stand
And look around us now,
People oh people, oh people

[Chorus]

I've seen the rain fall in Africa
I've touched the snow of Alaska
I've felt the mist of Niagara
Now I believe in you

[Chorus]

To a different beat

How far we've come
And how far to go
Rain does not fall
On one roof alone
To a different beat
