Lyrics { Sing Along }

[Everyone]
When I get older,
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom,
Just like a wavin' flag

[K'naan]
Born from a throne,
Older than Rome
But violent prone,
Poor people zone

[Nelly Furtado]
But it's my home,
All I have known

[Sam Roberts]
Where I got grown,
but now it's gone

[Avril Lavigne]
Out of the darkness,
in came the carnage
threatening my very survival

[Pierre Bouvier of Simple Plan]
Fractured my streets,
and broke all my dreams

[Tyler Connolly of Theory of a Deadman]
Feels like defeat to wretched retreat

[All]
So we strugglin'

[Kardinal Offishall]
Fighting to eat

[All]
And we wonderin'

[Kardinal Offishall]
If well be free

[Jully Black]
We cannot wait for some faithful day,
it's too far away so right now I say

[Everyone - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Ahh ohh..

[Lights]
So many wars, settling scores
[Deryck Whibley of Sum 41]
All that we've been through
And now there is more
[Serena Ryder]
I hear them say love is the way
[Jacob Hoggard of Hedley]
Love is the answer that's what they say
[Emily Haines]
But we're not just dreamers
of broken down grievers
[Hawsley Workman]
Our hand will reach us
and (si buenos dias?)
[Drake]
This can't control us
no it can't hold us down
[Chin Injeti]
We gon' pick it up even though we still strugglin'
[Pierre Lapointe]
Au nom de la survie (In the name of survival)
[Everyone]
and we wonderin'
[Pierre Lapointe]
Battant pour nos vie (Fighting for our lives)

[Everyone]
We patiently wait,
for some other day
[Fefe Dobson and Esthero]
that's too far away so right now we say

[Everyone - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Ahh ohh..

When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Ahh ohh..

[Drake - Rapping]
Uhh well alright
How come when the media stops covering
and there's a little help from the government
we forget about the people still strugglin'
and assume that it's really all love again, nahh
See we don't have to wait for things to break apart
if you weren't involved before it's never too late to start
you probably think that it's too far to even have to care
well take a look at where you live what if it happened there?
you have to know the urge to make a change lies within
and we can be the reason that they see their flag rise again

[Nikki Yanofsky]
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
[Nikki Yanofsky & Drake]
Just like a wavin flag

[Matt Mays]
and then it goes back
[Justin Nozuka]
and then it goes back
[Nikki Yanofsky]
then it goes back

[Everyone - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Ahh ohh..

When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Ahh ohh..

[Justin Bieber]
When I get older
When I get older
I will be stronger
just like a waving flag.

  • @lindayanes95 your right!! also there is kids in the hospitle too!

  • if i get 100 thumbs up i will give 100 dollars to hati and i will say it is from youtube!!!

  • Drake's part is awesome ekkkkkkk!

  • Nice[=

  • @maxified1 i dont think somalia is in haiti

  • @lindayanes95 Yes but remember, at the time, Haiti was the #1 thing on the news due to the fact that the earthquake and everything else that happened, killed hundreds of people. They did the same thing for Hurricane Katrina. They not only made a big deal about it, but I believe they made a song or a cover of a song for the people who survived the hurricane. Those are peeks in the world that they believe need to get more attention then the other. They made things for other states too.

  • K'naan was born in Haiti

  • @lindayanes95 i feel like truly you could put this to anything.

  • i lov this song.

    it has a gud beat and gr8 lyrics

    awesome

  • though I know some people don't like justin bieber's part, I think it really fits the lyrics. He's the youngest, he's still a teenager, so it's very meaningful to have him be the one to say the final "When I get older.."
