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 Sela**ie I, "Power of the Trinity" Soul made in naija, my vice 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!
