[Verse One: Akrobatik]

Little Helena feels the weight of the world on her shoulders

Mentally and in addition to the weight of the boulders

And the rubble

That's crushing her frame

She's in a lot of trouble

Her auntie's nearby whispering "I love you"

But the situation's bleak

Zoom out

This tragedy took more than one room out

Destruction and mayhem throughout

The Nation of Haiti was rocked by an earthquake

Brittle houses collapsed after the first shakes

One of the worst places this could happen

Because the country is poor even though the people are full of passion

Hurts to see the first free Black state wait for food Sir

But they've gotta see Anderson Cooper

See when they liberated from France

They set a standard for all Black people to advance

Little Helena didn't make it

But her will to live is what inspired me to write this

For Haiti we ignite this

Chorus

[Verse Two: Mr. Lif]

Devastation of another Nation

Folks in dire situations trying to be patient

Help is coming but the looters through the streets

Wanna flee, but the blood is leaking through your feet

It's looking bleak

Body crushed, but your soul is strong

Holding on, cause your memories are never gone

Life's glory

Add this to your life's story

I was there

I survived

I'm alive

We'll rebuild again

So don't worry

But for now, bodies in the streets

People dying over water and food

Fighting to eat

Fighting sleep cause I might slip

Into God's arms

Reaching for an angel's palm

But I'm not gone

Then my body got strong

Let my voice ring

Blacked out then woke up

To people hoisting

Me from my death bed

To get fed

These are people from my neighborhood

So this is what I said...

Chorus
