Lyrics

How wonder why you and me fight each other, don't you see the similarities between us? Take a minute to see yourself in the mirror, you look like me, those eyes that you can't deny. Have you thought about why we look the same, why we feel the same? Don't tell me it's by chance. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, just one big family. It doesn't matter, you live far away from me, you feel I feel, you bleed I bleed, you cry and I cry. You sleep and dream, sometimes we're sad, sometimes we're happy, you breathe I breathe, we love one talking, we smile. Have you thought about why we look the same, why we feel the same? Don't tell me it's by chance. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Sing it loud, come on! Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. I care about you and I wish you could realize there's no difference between us two, we're part of one family. No matter how far you are and even if we don't know each other, oh, you and me, me and you, we are one. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Sing it loud, come on! Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Oh, you're my brother, you're my sister, we're one big family. Just one big family, just one big family. I love you so, I love you so. Assalamualaikum everyone. For the rest of my life, I'll be with you. I love you, I love you, oh Lord. And with the name of our religion, our eyes were filled with longing. In the name of Allah, the most merciful, the most merciful. You are the number one for me. Allah, our Lord, the most merciful, the most merciful. Blessed be Allah, the most merciful, the most merciful. Are you ready to keep it low? Come on! The happiness in my eyes, the love in my heart. Ma'sha'Allah, ma'sha'Allah. O Prophet, peace be upon you. O Messenger, peace be upon you. Yeah! Ma'sha'Allah, I want to see everyone, come on! kutani
