This is week 114 and the theme is catchy as usual. For those who want to jump in on this too, here is your chance: [馃幍 Hive Open Mic 114 - Worldwide Live Music Event]
There are some things that are more than words and those things are the exposures we have had in life, the background we have been subjected to, the reality we have come to embrace, the life we have chosen to lead and the trail of kindness we leave on our path. We can be seated next to a broken person and we wouldn't know it which is why we must be kind to one another.
We all have stories, the problem is telling it just as we all have dreams and the problem is selling it. It's pointless to sit at the base of the mountain and cry when we can muster the strength to at least climb. In this world, one thing I've come to understand is that no one can make it out here all alone.
We all need one another and in line with the theme and goal of Hive Open Mic which is unity, I decided to go with this song as it speaks about our experiences in life and the need for us to remember that we are one, regardless of our religion, regardless of our race, colour of our skin and even where we live.
Artist: Angelique Kidjo
Title of song: We Are One
Lyrics:
As you go through life you'll see
There is so much that we don't understand
And the only thing we know
Is things don't always go
The way we planned
Ayiho nan hon b么 nan toun
D么 gbeme do sousou lo
When it seems all your dreams come undone
Akon kpikpan d茅a doh么
Z茅w茅 sou gb锚w锚 bi么mon
We are more than we are, we are one
Family, family, we are one
If there's so much I must be
Can I still just be me
The way I am
Can I trust in my own heart
Or am I just one part
Of some big plan
Mantint么 l猫 do kp么
Ha mi do gb锚min fi la
Your journey has only begun
Akon kpikpan d茅a doh么
Z茅w茅 sou gb锚w锚 bi么mon
Is our pride, deep inside
We are one
Family, family, we are one
Gnin kpo hw锚 kpo do kp么
Nou d茅 man nan hin mi gbl茅
One family under the sun
Akon kpikpan d茅a doh么
Z茅w茅 sou gb锚w锚 bi么mon
You will find when you see
We are one
Family, family, we are one
