lyrics
This is a song for everyone’s soul
who fights for a change
under the same sky
send you some love
in these words of thanks
for giving me (hope)
the hope that is gonna last
yeah
while this world goes around n’ round round
with inequality, injustice and many wars
tell me, tell me tell me
how many times ...you’ve said to yourself
not in my name, not in your name
this is a song, for everyone’s hope
united for a change, under the same sun
sending you my trust, in the name of the almighty
because after all, we’re sailing the same boat…..yeah ..hey wait a minute
for how long these killings , repression and false dreams
when we forget the important things
tell me tell me , tell me now
how long , do we have to wait saying
not in my name, not in your name...
ooohh uuuhh it must come a time
it must come a time
for each and every one yeah
so strong as i feel what i am sayin’
for better times, until these nights become days...
say it again, not in my name,
say it, not in my name
it’s time for a change.
not in my name
it’s time for change
not in my (our, your) name
come on say it again ….
