Lyrics:

All:
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll 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 its my home
All I have known

[Sam Roberts]
Where I got grown
but now its gone

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

[Pierre Bouvier of Simple]
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
its too far away so right Ill say

[All - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
(And then it goes back x3)

Ahhho ahhho ahhho

[Lights]
So many wars settling scores
[Deryck Whibley of Sum 41]
All that weve 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 thats what they say
[Emily Haines]
But were not just dreamers
of broken down grievers
[Hawsley Workman]
Our hand will reach us
and we will not see ya
[Drake]
This cant control us
no it cant hold us down
[Chin Injeti]
We gon pick it up even though we still struggling
[Pierre Lapointe]
Au nom de la survie (In the name of survival)
[all]
and we wondering
[Pierre Lapointe]
Battant pour nos vie (Fighting for our lives)

[All]
We patiently wait
for some other day
[Fefe Dobson and Esthero]
thats too far away so right now we say

[All - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
(And then it goes back x3)

Ahhho ahhho ahhho

[Drake - Rapping]
Uhh well alright
How come when the media stops covering
and theres a little help from the government
we forget about the people still struggling
and assume that its really all love again nahh
see we dont have to wait for things to break apart
if you werent involved before its never too late to start
you probably think that its 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 we see the flag rise again

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

[15]
and then it goes back
[Justin Nozuka]
and then it goes back
[Nikki Yanofsky]
Then it goes back

All - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
Theyll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
(And then it goes back x3)

Ahhho ahhho ahhho

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