歌词
Scholars and scientists now conceive that
Africa is the first place of mankind
Africans were the first builders of civilization
They discovered mathematics, invented writing, developed sciences
Engineering, medicine, religion, fine arts, and built the
Great Pyramids
An architectural achievement which still baffles modern scientists' [INTRO VOICE 2]
The 225th
Emperor [echo] direct descent from
Solomon and
The Queen of
Sheba [echo]
He is the "King of Kings, The Lion of Judah [echo]"
The name Haile
Selassie I means "Power of the Trinity" [Verse 1: Stephen Marley]
Educate yourselves, of
Africa To liberate yourself,
Africa Keep your heads up high
No more will we cry
Eeeeyh Our history that they stole,
Africa Is written in our souls,
Africa Oldest nation on this earth
Know just what you worth
Well well
Ships that sail to distant places
Robbed us of our rising worlds
History says that you've betrayed us
Talking of the
Gods you serve
Hear the rambling in the sky
Tears that our fore fathers cry
And today we're still in chains
Take the shackle from our minds
You're the corner stone
The king upon the throne
How beautiful are thou,
Africa Our nation have to bow,
Africa Don't you fall from grace
You're that secret place
Aye! Aye-ah-aye! [Verse 2: Wale]
Power to the people,
Motherland representa
I'm on trial with the man she my co-defendant
And I demand her attention, can you focus women?
I'm getting closer to the sky errytime
I hit it Haile
Selassie I, "Power of the Trinity"
Soul made in naija, my voice made in
Italy White mans world that
I'm livin' in, some say
But it was
Africa the continent we all came from
Can't nothing come between me and you
So before
I have seeds gotta understand my roots
Gotta understand the truth.
We is all king's 'round here
Lifes not all fair, work till we fall dead
Paul goin' hard 'till
I urn like a
Pall-Bearer
Although my body's in the
U.S my heart's there
I can never be ashamed of her,
I got my features and my name from her
Mama Africa [Verse 3: Stephen Marley]
The richest place on earth
Know just what your worth [HARMONIZING WITH MUSIC]
Talking about the
God you serve [HARMONIZING WITH MUSIC]
Keep your heads up high
No more will we cry
They infiltrate our homes,
Africa They claim it as their own,
Africa Now we must stand tall
To break down all these wall-alls
Well well
Our children must be taught, of
Africa The science and the art,
Africa Nah
Nah Nah Nah
Nah Nahhh!
Educate yourself,
Africa To liberate yourselves,
Africa Keep your heads up high
No more will we cry
Beautiful are thou,
Africa A legend have to bow,
Africa Oh
Oh! Made in
Africa, We share
Africa (We share Africa)
Made in Africa,
We share Africa (We share Africa)
Made in Africa,
We share Africa (We share Africa)
Made in Africa,
We share Africa (We share Africa)
Made in Africa,
We share Africa (We share Africa)
Made in Africa,
We share Africa (We share Africa)
Made in Africa,
We share Africa (We share Africa)
