Wake up Africa

Stand up Africa can't you see, Your children are dying hear their plea, Merciless leaders sell you for gold, Leaving your sons to die in the cold, Africa can't you feel your daughters tears, Look at them as evil men have wasted their years, Africa why are you begging for your money, Don't you know you're the land of milk and honey, Strangers from a different land, Come here and feed your children sand, Africa can't you smell the stench of war, Wicked men filling lands with gore, You're leaders are now cowards, Afraid of the hungry foreign powers, Africa can't you sense the dangers, You acted hospitable and let in the strangers, They enslaved your children once now their doing it again, Forcing them to work unpaid to maximize their own gain, Africa please wake up and fight your battles, Or else you will forever live in shackles,
