They say Africa is a dark dark continent

It’s true

We produce one of the darkest crisp coffee

They say we live in the bush

It’s true

We love the rose bush

They say Africa is just one country

That’s right

The unity makes us one

They say we love violence

Absolutely

We just can’t wait for the violins to lead the violent thumbing of the African drums

They say Africa is an uncivilized continent

That’s right

Our civilization is above western imagination’s classification

They say Africans live with monkeys

That’s right

We’re lovable by nature

They say Africa is a filthy continent

That’s right

Thy continent is filled with the different races of all the world

They say we were slaves

That’s right

We overcame slavery

But they are still enslaved by their brains

They say Africa is worthless

Well it’s because they are milking our minerals

So it’s true

They say these and that

We say we are who we are

We are the Africa that some of the Europeans run to in order to escape their unjust countries

We are the Africa that developed all the countries in the world

We are the Africa that holds the highest wealth underground

We are the Africa that every European country wants to get for themselves

We are the Africa that gave birth to all the different continents

We are who we are

We love who we are
