(+) Africa (feat. K'NAAN)



Morning to you man
Morning to you love
Hey, I say, I said
Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May a better day come
Yesterday we were kings
Can you tell me young ones
Who are we today? Yeah now
Well, Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May a better day come
Yesterday we were kings
Can you tell me young ones
Who are we today? Yeah now
The Black Oasis, Ancient
Africa the sacred
Awaken the sleeping giant
Science, art is your creation
I dreamt that we could visit Old Kemet
Your history is too complex and rigid
For some Western critics
They want the whole subject diminished
But Africa's the origin of all the world's religions
We praise bridges that carried us over
The battlefronts of Sudanic soldiers
The task put before us
You hear me out
Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May a better day come
Yesterday we were kings
Can you tell me young ones
Who are we today? Yeah now
Well, Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May a better day come
Yesterday we were kings
Can you tell me young ones
Who are we today?
Who are we today?
The slums, diseases, AIDS
We need that all to fade
We cannot be afraid
So who are we today?
We are the morning after
The makeshift youth, the slave ship captured
Our Diaspora is the final chapter
The ancestral lineage built pyramids
America's first emigrant
The King's son and daughters
From Nile waters
The first architect, the first philosophers
Astronomers, the first prophets
And the doctors was us
Hey, now can we all pray
Each in his own way
Teaching and learning
We can work it out
We'll have a warm bed
We'll have some warm bread
And shelter from the storm Dread
And we can work it out
Mother Nature feeds all
In famine and drought
Tell those selfish in ways
Not to share us out
What's a tree without root?
Lion without tooth
A lie without truth
You hear me out
Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May a better day come
Yesterday we were kings
Can you tell me young ones
Who are we today? Yeah, Lord
Well, Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May some more love come
Yesterday we were kings
I tell you young blood
This world is yours today
Dadyahow daali waayey
Nabada diideen
Oo ninkii doortay diinta
Waadinka dillee
Oo dal markii ladhiso
Waadinka dunshee
Oo daacad ninkii damcay
Waadinka dooxee
Dadyahow daali waayey
Nabada diideen
Oo ninkii doortay diinta
Waadinka dillee
Oo dal markii ladhiso
Waadinka dunshee
Oo daacad ninkii damcay
Waadinka dooxee (Translation) Oh ye people, restless in the refusal of peace And when a man chooses religion, aren't you the ones to kill him? And when a country is built, aren't you the ones to tear it down? And when one attempts to tell the truth, aren't you the ones to cut him down?
We want to thank y'all, everybody out there
This is Nas, Damian Marley, Distant Relatives
We're all distant relatives, no matter where you from
Where you live, how near, how far
Africa, China, Japan, Afghanistan, Israel
We're all fam, we're all distant relatives
So that's why we came together
One of the reasons myself and Damian came together
'Cause we all come from one place, and that's Africa
That's right, you too, and you, the whole world
We're all family, we just spread out all over the place
So to all my distant relatives, let's take it back home!
I say, well Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May a better day come
Yesterday we were kings
Can you tell me young ones
Who are we today? Yeah now
Well, Africa must wake up
You sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring
May a better day come
Yesterday we were kings
Can you tell the young ones
Who are we today?
Who are we today?
Morning to you
Morning to you, man
Morning to you, love
