THE GREAT DIVIDE
Stone & Sparrow
[Intro]
RAVEN:
Who drew the lines?
JUNE:
Who built the walls?
SCARLETT:
Who planted fear?
ALL THREE:
Between us all…
⸻
[Verse 1]
RAVEN:
They split the nations into colors and tribes
JUNE:
Turned brothers and sisters to opposite sides
SCARLETT:
Neighbors stop talking, families break apart
ALL THREE:
While someone keeps drawing new lines through our hearts
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
JUNE:
Different languages
SCARLETT:
Same tears fall
RAVEN:
Different stories
ALL THREE:
Same hopes for us all
⸻
[CHORUS - ALL THREE]
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
(The Great Divide!)
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
(The Great Divide!)
Who profits from walls in our minds?
Who wins when trust is left behind?
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
We’re more alike
Than we’ve been told
⸻
[Verse 2]
SCARLETT:
A church bell rings
JUNE:
A prayer is spoken
RAVEN:
A candle burns in the dark
SCARLETT:
A temple stands
JUNE:
A mosque is open
RAVEN:
Searching for the same spark
⸻
[Build]
ALL THREE:
When faith brings hope
It lifts us higher
When faith brings love
It lights the fire
But when faith divides
And teaches fear
The light grows dim
The truth disappears
⸻
[CHORUS - ALL THREE]
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
(The Great Divide!)
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
(The Great Divide!)
Who taught us to fear each other?
Who told us we were not brothers?
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
We’re more than
Their borders and names
⸻
[Bridge]
RAVEN:
Queensland…
JUNE:
Tennessee…
SCARLETT:
Mississippi…
ALL THREE:
Still standing here…
RAVEN:
Different roads…
JUNE:
Different dreams…
SCARLETT:
Different stories…
ALL THREE:
Same human needs…
⸻
[Breakdown]
JUNE (soft):
Maybe peace begins…
SCARLETT (soft):
Not between governments…
RAVEN (soft):
Not between religions…
ALL THREE:
But between people…
⸻
[Guitar Solo]
(Lead Guitar + Banjo)
⸻
[Final Chorus]
ALL THREE (powerful):
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
(The Great Divide!)
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
(The Great Divide!)
No more walls
No more enemies
No more fear
Between you and me
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
Let’s ask who built it
THE GREAT DIVIDE!
And if we still need it
⸻
[Outro]
RAVEN:
One sky…
JUNE:
One earth…
SCARLETT:
One hope…
ALL THREE:
One Human Family…
One Human Family…
One Human Family…
