Michael Franti & Spearhead 11:59


It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you
It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you

It was eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine clicks.
The whole world's watching but the clock just ticks,
over and over, every single day.
Some people steal while other people pray,
to God, to man, machines or whatever.
Some of us just lost faith altogether.
"No way," they say, "we can't live this way."
That's why so many people stand up and say.

One love, one blood, one heart, one soul
and one drum and only one rhythm.
One child and all of them singin'.

It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you
It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you

It was eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine clicks.
Life's a cord plugged in, the whole world's sick.
Got diseases excited, they crawled up inside us.
Superstupiditis, philosophies that divide us.
Keep us in fear from one another
so we can't seem to recognize a brother from another mother.
No way, we can't live this way,
that's why so many people stand up and say.

One love, one blood, one heart, one soul
and one drum and only one rhythm.
One child and all of them singin'.

It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you
It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you

It was eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine clicks.
The whole world burning, the clock just ticks,
Some people [?]

One love, one blood, one heart, one soul
and one drum and only one rhythm.
One child and all of them singin'.

It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you
It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you
It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you
It's eleven fifty-nine and fifty-nine seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight I'm goin' to heaven, ay, ay, with you
