Aswad - African Children Part 2

African children you just keep on growing, wooh-yeah
Your brothers sisters have set the foundations
It's up to you now to do the rest
Know who you are as a people, one people, Jah people
Know who we are as a people, one people, Jah people
United by our African ancestors
We are united now in the conditions in which we live
We are united now in the knowledge
Africa cannot be free until all means for full human development
Are available to all Africans
African children you just keep on growing, wooh-yes
You eat what your mother give to you,
'Cause it will make you big and strong
And don't you screw, don't you screw, like no real baddy boo
It's him who play with the gun one day the trigger he'll pull it, I say
Now that violence covers the whole wide world
And tears that are shed are just like the seas in this world
We've often talked about it
No longer can we joke about it
Time to let Jah be, the guide for every African
African children you just keep on growing, wooh-yeah

(..)

Now I don't want you with no slave mentality
Can't you see little ones that is just oppressor ideology
Cast all thoughts of revenge from your mind
This little struggle that we're fighting in
Is the liberation of all Africans

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Jah know we'll win
Saying the truth it is never a sin
Just show love, mankind must win
Must win, must win, must win, through the day
