CHORUS
African children you live now forever
You must make a new start with your roots education
African children get ready for revolution
You must build new homes and erase this suffocation
VERSE 1
We all understand the background of creation
But we have to realize that we’re close to extermination
Before we cultivate our identity and our culture
Conjure up di core and di base of the problem
Smoke on the water and blood on di ground
Tears of a baby wit a nostalgic sound
The rising of the sun, the shadow of the moon
The brunches of a tree, the flower on the bloom
CHORUS
VERSE 2
Nature has been warning us that life is so simple
That when you love di life yo, then people love the people
But humans can become snobs and ironic, and want to feel di power like we feel di cronic
So they take off the mask of chastity
Dem forget every existence of morality
Dem become oppressors of our destiny
And navigate innocent souls every century
CHORUS
OUTRO
African children you live now forever
You must make a new start with your roots education
African children get ready for revolution
You must build new homes and erase this suffocation
African children awakening shall be
African children I'n'I must be free
Realize that dem been taken your peace away
Stand up now yo, stand up now yo, you know the game so play
This one goes out to the African Children..
