WE ARE ONE is an original gospel song about peace, love, and hope performed by the Robert Ross Band. It is available on Band Camp for download. It was written to remind people that war is not the answer and that there is more that we have in common than what keeps us apart. It is absolutely necessary for a country to defend itself from a military attack by another nation, but it is never okay to attack another nation without provocation.
We hear a lot of ugly and vicious lies lately about the war in Ukraine. Some politicians, and you know who they are, are turning the facts and the truth on their head and trying to make Americans believe Ukraine started the war, Zelenskyy is the dictator and that Putin is the second coming of George Washington and that Russia is the innocent victim here. The politicians who say those thing lie all the time, I know it, and you know it, and they are lying about that. How do I know? There lips are moving.
Ukraine was viciously and brutally attacked by Putin's Russia without provocation a few years ago and hundreds of thousands of people have been killed on both sides as a result. Many more have been injured or refugeed. Ukraine is fighting the largest and one of the most powerful nations on Earth. Zelenskyy is a great patriot and a great hero not just in Ukraine, but all over the world.
Getting back to the song, WE ARE ONE was originally released on Fountainbleu Records in 2004 along with 3 other songs on an EP entitled What Are We Fighting For?
