INTRO
I and I God and king satta pon the throne of Ithiopia
Through Dabre Marcus, Baha Dhar to Axum
Salam Nachu! Greetings!
Blakk Rasta alongside Jah Amber
VERSE 1 (Jah Amber)
For 400 hundred years, hundred millions and many more
We were packed like fish in a can and shipped off the Guinea shore
They took black magic and Ashanti Golden stool
Oh yes, we worked the plantations and never get no pay
Yeah, it is full time now we settle the score
Yes, it is full time now black people should know
CHORUS
Africa yen ara yedzi (Africa belongs to us) 4x
VERSE 2 (Jah Amber)
You see nation without a mystery is like a tree without roots
That kind of tree can never bear no fruits (Mama Africa)
Before you dance abroad we got to learn to dance a yard
Divide and rule could only tear us apart
The time has come for I and I to inite
Hakuna Matata make we stop all the fight
Been through the struggle and wash down the drain
So much agony and so much pain
(Oh children sing)
CHORUS
STANZA 1 (Blakk Rasta)
As a people, we once lived in peace and harmony
The wicked pale-faced man ransacked the rank and file with anarchy
Papa was slaughtered like a goat in butchery
Mama was raped like a whore in total misery
Boomaye Boomaya! 2x
Chase them out cause them too filthy
Mebrak! Mebrak! 2x
Strike them out like them cause a blasphemy
Them desecrated the lands at Timbuktu, Lalibella, Duri Gaga..Gaga Duri
Chase them out.. out of Duri Gaga, Gaga Duri….
CHORUS
STANZA 2 (Blakk Rasta)
Yao! Rasta, now they are back again
Uncle, me se won gwan oo na w‘aba biom ooo (I say uncle let’s run for cover, cause there here again oo)
In a Africa, we sit on gold yet we never gain
We sit on diamond yet we go through pain
Dutty Chineyman thief we diamond, gold an’ ting
And ongle laugh and drink champagne
Our mis-leaders who sey dem wi leaders
Ongle betray we and feel no shame
African people are eating
More Chinese food now than Tuobodom plantain
Chineyman gun down wi indegenes just like them gone insane
Everywhere you go now
Black people patronize cheap Chinese imitations like sugar cane
No wonder now, the churches in a Africa
Sing Chinese hymns on a higher octave
HOOK (In Chinese)
Tai mii mi chang tso
Pisi yai shifoo
Foo wa shifoo foo wa
Foowa foowa shifoo foowa 2x
2x
CHORUS AND AD LIBS TO FADE
