Lucky Dube - Different Colours, One People Lyrics

Breaking those barriers
All over the world (Was not an easy thing)
Yesterday your mouth was shut
Couldn't make a sound eh boy
But it's such a good feeling today
When I can hear them from across the ocean (Singing this song)
That the whole world should be singing
All the time

Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)

Hey you government
Never try to separate the people
Hey you politician
Never try to separate the people here

They were created in the image of God
And who are you to separate them
Bible says He made man in his image (But it didn't say black or white)
Look at me (You see black)
I look at you (I see White)
Now is the time to kick that away
Join me (In my song)

Different colours (One people)
Different colours (We are one people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (We are one people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours

Hey you government
Never separate the people
You politician
Never try to separate the people here

Some were from America (We were from South Africa)
Some were from Japan (We were from China)
Some were from Australia (We were from the UK)
Some were from Zimbabwe (We were from Ghana)
Some were from Jamaica (We were from Russia)
You are from Uganda

Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)
Different colours (One people)

One people
