“This Old World is a friend of mine” – Robert Larrabee (Modern Folk/Rock) | Lyrics + Lyric Video
“This Old World Is a Friend of Mine” is a Modern Folk/Rock single from Robert Larrabee, releasing January 9, 2026. The song treats the planet like an old friend—steady beneath the noise—and lands on a simple reminder:
“This old world’s looking for a sign, So she can take a breath and unwind.
She just wants some peace of mind—This old world is a friend of mine.”
The bridge brings it home with a grounded message of respect and responsibility:
“But you have to treat her right—don’t want her to get up tight.
She’s got her ways to fight back, if you go down the wrong track.”

About the Song
Robert Larrabee delivers a stirring anthem for America — and the world — with “Nothing Great Comes From Hate.”
Driven by a gritty hip hop groove and laced with a bluesy electric guitar riff, this track bridges musical worlds to send one powerful message: unity beats division every time.
Snappy percussion, thick bass, and chant-driven hooks set the stage for verses that mix rhythmic rap flow with blues harmonica breaks and soulful backing vocals. The result is a song that moves both the heart and the body — part rally cry, part redemption song.
Larrabee’s lyrics challenge the listener to rise above anger and pride, to reconnect with compassion, and to remember that greatness is built on respect, not hate.
Quote from Robert Larrabee
“Music has always been about bringing people together. This song is a reminder that hate never built anything lasting — love and understanding did.”
Key Lyric

Robert Larrabee "Warrior Will Survive
🎖️ “Warrior Will Survive” — Robert Larrabee Written August 3rd, 2014 – Slave Lake, Alberta Released for Remembrance Day, Canada In 2014, at a Wounded Warrior Weekend in Slave Lake, Alberta, I met a woman named Jo “Gunny from Portugal Cove, Newfoundland” — a true warrior in every sense of the word. She had served as a Weapons technician and could fix everything from a pistol to a tank. Tough as steel, but with a heart full of honour and pain. That day, she shared with me stories of PTS, of Beechwood Military Cemetery, and of the soldiers who came home — and those who never did. Her words stayed with me. That night, I wrote “Warrior Will Survive.” This song is dedicated to every soldier who carries the weight of service, and to the memory of those who live on in our hearts, our monuments, and our gatherings each Remembrance Day. The warriors we’ve lost — and those still fighting within — remind us that courage isn’t just found on the battlefield; it’s found in survival, in brotherhood, and in remembrance. So as we pause to honour them, may we never forget that through our unity, our gratitude, and our remembrance…The Warrior Will Survive. — Robert Larrabee, Songwriter This video was added this site on November 10'th 9:07 MST
