We are the LIFTers

February 11, 2008 - 22:08 — Pedro Custodio

LIFT is a gathering of a bunch of special people, so special, that a crazy bunch of them went on and wrote a lyric for the LIFTsong contest. We managed to decide upon the band's name: 'The Trouble Makers' but we unfortunately didn't managed to gather everyone at the same time for the recording... It won't be the last time you've read about this bunch of people I assure you, but before we actually lost it... here's the lyrics for prosperity:

There comes a time when we need a certain call
When the lifters must come together as one
There are people speaking
Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to change
The greatest event of all

We can't go on pretending day by day
That someone, somehow will soon make a change
We're all a part of LIFT great big family
And the truth - you know lift is all we need

(CHORUS)
We are the world, we are the lifters
We are the ones who make a brighter day
Through our revolution
Theres a choice were making
We’re opening up innovation
Its true we make a better day
Just you and me

Well, send'em your heart
So they know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us
By turning stone to bread
And so we all must lend a helping hand

(REPEAT CHORUS AND FADE )

The TroubleMakers:
Henriette Weber, Francesca Birks, Dannie Jost, Kushrim Xhakli, Tom Purves, Simone Cortesi, Mark Kuznicki and me, Pedro Custódio
A special thanks to all the supporters (but toooo afraid to sing troublemakers): Michele Perras and Colin Schlueter
