(Chorus: African Children)
(Verse 1: The 'U')
(Uh) Here's another installment, to the greatest story prolly never told
(Uh) They say the good die young well that sounds like a song that never gets old
Lemme turn up my headphones, hear those drums
Words sound smart but the ba** go dumb
(Huh) I mean borderline stupid
Love life no cupid
Waited for my whole life for a sound like this
And my team all Black all we missing is the fist
Might've heard like that, but never like this
Take heed to the words from my lips
(Yeah) In case you ain't heard ain't no stoppin' it
This the voice of the entire continent
Better turn me up, I said turn me up
Ayo lemme hear those African Drums
(Chorus: African Children)
(Verse 2: The 'U')
Ma ma se, ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Bout to park my Phantom at the opera
It goes Black, Red, Green
I'm thinkn' bout King or maybe that's a dream
I'm somewhere in between
Are you seein' what I'm seein'
Better yet are you hearin' what I'm hearin'
Yall hear drums, I hear voices
The soul of the people inside these noises
(Yeah) Being trapped in the Matrix
No different being trapped on a slave ship
(Uh) That's why we off the chain
You gonna have to Indian dance to feel my rain
From Naija to the Congo
South Africa to Morocco
Better turn me up, I said turn me up
Ayo lemme hear those African Drums
(Chorus: African Children)
