Song Lyrics

I don't need a passport
To walk on this earth,
Anywhere I go cause I was made of this earth
I'm born of this earth,
I breathe of this earth,
And even with the pain I believe in this earth, so
I wake up every mornin' and I'm steppin' on the floor,
I wake up every mornin' and I'm stepping out the door

I got faith in the sky,
Faith in the one,
Faith in the people rockin' underneath the sun
'Cause every bit of land is a holy land and
Every drop of water is a holy water and
Every single child is a son or a daughter of the one
Earth mama and the one Earth papa, so
Don't tell a man that he cant come here cause he got
Brown eyes and a wavy kind of hair, and
Don't tell a woman that she cant go there because she
Prays a little different to a God up there
You say you're a Christian
'Cause God made you
You say you're a Muslim
'Cause god made you
You say you're a Hindu and the next man a Jew
Then we all kill each other
'Cause God told us to nah!

Hello, hello!
Bonjour, bonjour!

So dance to the rhythm
Bounce to the rhythm
Shake to the rhythm

Stickie on percussion and we mashin' up the place

Givin' you a sound you can shake your soul to so
