Listen in & hear a sample of the anthem.
In We are the World, Thomas and his all-stars belt out a beautiful, harmonic rendition which transitions into The Time with a hip hop beat from LA, followed by amazing Brazilian beat, Arabic rap and Mandarin. Click below.
The lyrics:
Ma
Ma - we see you far and near.
Ma - in every heart and breath and tear.
From summits high to deltas low,
we see your love and heavenly glow.
Ma - in forest, desert, farm and field,
your splendor ever stands revealed.
You Feed Us Fairy Stories
You feed us fairy stories,
But what do you do?
Destroying the planet - How dare you?
You say you hear us, but we don't believe.
You say you understand us, but you deceive.
How dare you! How dare you!
We're watching you!
How dare you! How dare you!
We're onto you!
We Are The World
We are the world. We are the future.
We are the ones to feed, to teach, to nurture.
Earth is our Home. And She is hurting.
This is not time, there is no time for shirking.
The Time
Now is the time we've been waiting for.
To ferry across to the farther shore.
Now is the time to give up blame.
These times will never be the same.
Now is the time to leave behind
The stuffy strictures of a closet mind.
Now is to do what's never been done,
To share our wisdom and freedom and fun.
All the wonder and all delight
Await the one who comes to light.
Now is the time.
