From the recording WAKE UP WARRIOR (2026)
“One Heart, One Drum” by Quin C. Dey is a powerful affirmation of the Rastafari vow to remain faithful, conscious, and true. Rooted in spiritual devotion and collective purpose, the song calls for unity beyond borders, cultures, and divisions.
Lyrics
Keep it beating
Hmm yeah
Jah hear meh
Keep it beating
One heart beat
Yuh hear meh
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the love
We rise together
One heart one drum
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the love
We rise together
One heart one drum
Light of the world
Shine on me
Grief in your eyes
Set I free
No hate no fight
Just you and me
Under the sun
One family
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the love
We rise together
One heart one drum
When the wind blows
A gentle song
Reminds the soul
Where we belong
No rich no poor
No high no low
Just hearts in time
Let the healing flow
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the love
We rise together
One heart one drum
Hold on to the truth
Hold on to the sound
Lift up your spirit the world is spinning round
Hmm
One breathe
One soul
One riddim take control
Let the love unfold
Pure and whole
We rise together
We stand as one
Rising forever
Till kingdom come
One heartbeat
One melody
One pure love for you and me
One heart one drum
Keep it beating
Won't you
Won't you
Keep it beating everyone yeah
