From the recording Weather The Storm
“Try your best to forgive the past. What’s done is gone, we’ll see at last, what’s going on right now.” Clearly inspired by reggae pioneers such as Steel Pulse, Andru Branch delivers a powerful and timely message of Love and unity. The title track off the album is intended to offer hope in a time of desperation, as we collectively “Weather The Storm”.

Lyrics
Weather The Storm
Words and music by Andru Branch © 2016
What’s going on?
Can you tell me what’s going on?
What’s going on?
Can you tell me what’s going on?
What’s going on?
Can you tell me what’s going on?
What’s going on?
Why don’t we try to Love each other?
The best we can do is help one another
Overstand
The fate of the World is in our hands
The fate of the World is in our hands
This is the calm before the storm
Better get some Love to keep you warm
Can you find the road that leads you home?
To weather the storm
Weather the storm
Weather the storm
We only live to learn to Love
And we’re only here for long enough
The time has come for all of us
To weather the storm
Weather the storm
Weather the storm
Try your best to forgive the past
What’s done is gone we’ll see at last
What’s going on right now!
What’s going on?
Can you tell me what’s going on?
What’s going on?
Can you tell me what’s going on?
What’s going on?
Can you tell me what’s going on?
What’s going on?
