Music Video
The music video is mainly set in a refugee camp. At the beginning of the video, Wyclef Jean is given the mission to prevent the video's lead female from being deported back to her home country, which is said to be hostile. Akon and Lil' Wayne are also featured as they also seemingly are waiting for possible deportation. After a short wait, the lead female is informed that she will be deported. Soon after, you see her set the camp on fire and Jean, in an effort to reach her, takes out a guard and succeeds in rescuing the lead female. Both leap off camera as the camp erupts in flame. The video for the remix premiered on November 27, 2007 on Wyclef Jean's YouTube account. The video was directed by Chris Robinson.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“For I have learned
To look on nature, not as in the hour
Of thoughtless youth, but hearing oftentimes
The still, sad music of humanity.”
