▶️ Watch on 3Speak

Hello brothers and sisters, We are Indonesia Bersatu, a Punk Rock band from Medan, Indonesia. We are here again to entertain you and also share the music video we played in the Hive #OpenMic community which has entered its 123rd week. So, this week's theme is "A Better World for All" which has been chosen by spotlight artist @daniky. In our opinion, this week's theme is so great and awesome.

A better world is everyone's hope. But, is everyone making the world a better place? I do not think so! When I went out of the house, there were still a lot of poor and hungry people. There was still a lot of discrimination going on, there was still a lot of oppression going on, and there was still a lot of corruption going on. When I watch television, the war is not over, terrorism still exists, forests are burned, and crops are spent for personal gain. The world is not doing well right now.

If we hope for a better world, then we must together create it. Throw away all the hatred and grudges that are within us and hold on to love firmly. Only unity and togetherness can create peace. Peaceful life is the desire of the majority of people. Every religion also directs its adherents to live in peace. You can contribute to creating a better world, a world of peace, free from the souls of hostility, preventing riots. Everything starts with yourself.

We must be more serious in realizing the spirit of brotherhood and peace for a better world. We will be able to achieve peace if all can take care of each other and respect each other. Tolerance should be everyone's culture. No more discriminatory actions against differences in countries, nations, ethnicities, religions, and races. We can make this peace.

With this theme, we performed a cover song from a band from Bali, namely Superman Is Dead, entitled Strong We Shine which in English is strong we shine. this is one of the popular songs by superman is dead. This song invites us all to realize "The Beauty of Living in Difference". JRX is the drummer for the band Superman Is Dead who wrote the song. JRX gave a message in a song to invite us together to build a world in the beauty of differences, JRX is concerned about the current condition of the world, he is sad to see hatred and war everywhere just because of a difference.

Original song lyrics

“Kutatap dunia, terasa perih luka di dada
Pertempuran manusia yang buta indahnya perbedaan
Oh, indahnya

Kubisa, engkau pun bisa melupakan kebencian yang ada
Bersama kita terluka, bersama kita bisa tertawa
Dan tertawa

Ayo bangun dunia di dalam perbedaan
Jika satu tetap kuat kita bersinar
Harus percaya tak ada yang sempurna
Dan dunia kembali tertawa

Bayangkan dan senyumlah
Mahkota emas tiada artinya
Ketika raja dan ratu memimpin dunia, semua bersatu
Dan bersatu

Ayo bangun dunia di dalam perbedaan
Jika satu tetap kuat kita bersinar
Harus percaya tak ada yang sempurna
Dan dunia kembali tertawa

Jabat erat tanganku kawan
Kau tak akan pernah sendiri
Hancurkan dendam dengan cinta di dada
Untuk semua manusia

Ayo bangun dunia di dalam perbedaan
Jika satu tetap kuat kita bersinar
Harus percaya tak ada yang sempurna
Dan dunia kembali tertawa”

Translated song lyrics into English;

"I look at the world, I feel a pain in the chest"
The battle of humans who are blind, the beauty of difference
Oh, how beautiful

I can, you can forget the hatred that exists
Together we hurt, together we can laugh
And laugh

Let's build a world in difference
If one stays strong we shine
Must believe nothing is perfect
And the world laughs again

Imagine and smile
A gold crown is meaningless
When kings and queens rule the world, all unite
And unite

Let's build a world in difference
If one stays strong we shine
Must believe nothing is perfect
And the world laughs again

Hold my hand, my friend
You will never be alone
Destroy revenge with love in the chest
For all humans

Let's build a world in difference
If one stays strong we shine
Must believe nothing is perfect
And the world laughs again"

The place where we recorded this video is behind my friend's house who was selling coffee at that time. We recorded it using a Cannon brand mirrorless camera. For the sound produced, I edited using Adobe Audition CC to reduce noise in the sound recording, and the final process of editing the video was using Adobe Premiere Pro CC software. That's all we can say, hope you like it and thank you. Peace to all of us.
