[Verse 1: Stormzy]

Yeah, I don't know where to begin

So I'll start by saying I refuse to forget you

I refuse to be silenced

I refuse to neglect you

That's for every last soul up in Grenfell

Even though I've never even met you

Cuh that could've been my mum's house

Or that could've been my nephew

Now, that could've been me up there

Waving my white plain tee up there

With my friends on the ground tryna see up there

I just hope that you rest and you're free up there

I can't feel your pain but it's still what it is

Went to the block just to chill with the kids

Troubled waters come running past

I'ma be right there just to build you a bridge, yo

[Verse 2]

When you're weary [Robbie Williams]

And feeling small [James Blunt]

When tears are in [Rita Ora]

Your eyes [Craig David]

I will dry them all [Dan Smith]

I'm on your side [Liam Payne]

Oh, when times get rough [Emeli Sandé]

And friends just can't be found [Kelly Jones][Chorus]

Like a bridge over troubled water [Paloma Faith]

I will lay me down [Louis Tomlinson]

Like a bridge over troubled water [Labrinth]

I will lay me down [Jorja Smith]

[Break: Louis Rei]

So much pain in my heart

My community's moving me

Choose to gleam as we're facing the dark

[Verse 3]

When you're down and out [Leona Lewis]

When you're on the street [Jessie J]

When evening falls so hard [James Arthur]

I will comfort you [Roger Daltrey]

Yes, I will [Paloma Faith]

I'll take your part [Ella Eyre]

When darkness comes [Anne-Marie & Ella Henderson]

And pain is all around [Louisa Johnson]

[Chorus]

Like a bridge over troubled water [Robbie Williams, all voices]

I will lay, I will lay me down [James Arthur]

Like a bridge over troubled water [Choirs]

I will lay me down [Rita Ora]
