lyrics

The Great Africa was created for us all
The African mind loves the short and the tall
But I wonder why some of my people
Out of greed and selfishness have a stern zeal to cripple
The vulnerable souls they were mandated to protect
Eagle-eyed experts in conspiring
They easily detect those with whose views they differ
I shall defend my own Africa and rights
If need be with peaceful fights
We shall scale heights
And set far our sights
We struggle armed with literature
To be a new creature
We need to stand tall
Never accept downfall
Oh Oh Africa
