Africa is indeed a dark continent
We have talents but we don't see them
We have a fertile land but we don't see it
We have oil but we don't see it
...

The poor have no choice
Poverty denies them the right to choose
It makes decisions for them
like a dictator makes decisions for a country
...

Poverty makes the poor voiceless
It muffles their mouths
like a kidnapper muffles
the mouth of his victim
...

We are not civil servants
We are civil slaves
Servants work
and get paid
...

Iam an eagle among chickens
No matter what you do to me
I will always fly high up in the sky
Even if you pluck my feathers off
...

Unemployment is a deadly disease
caused by the virus called poverty
Once it infects you
It keeps you poor
...

Bail me out
Bail me out
I am sinking in a quicksand of debts
Bail me out
...

Wake up rastaman
The enemy is no longer the white man
It is the nations who practice protectionism
Wake up rastaman
...

Going back, going back
Africa you going back
Going back to ancient times
Slavery was abolished but now it is alive
...

If you do not want
to get sexually transmitted infections
condomize correctly and consistantly
If you do not want
...

Be faithful to one sexual partner
Do not change partners
like a wild animal changes partners
Even a mouse
...

From mother to child
From mother to child
the virus moves
like a hereditary disease
...

Love safely
Think about the effects of sexually transmitted infections
Think about the aids counselling
Think positively
...

Step by step
I am reaching there
Step by step
I am reaching there
...

All my proposals of love to you
are just madtalk
They don't even enter your mind
nor your heart
...

The leaders stole the money
The economy collapsed
like a mite eaten tree
Inflation went higher and higher
...

Coke and fanta
Coke and fanta
Her face is as light as fanta
and her arms are as black as coca cola
...

The brutality of poverty
forces the poor
to work
day in and day out
...

My love, my love, my love
Your answer to my proposal
has exploded my soul
Its now I realise
...

You bloody deforester
You slash down trees
like a slasher slashes grass
stripping mother earth naked
...
