[Chorus - x2] Africa must wake up, the 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
[Bridge - Damian Marley] 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, Shelter from the storm dread, And we can work it out Mother nature feeds all, In farming and drought And though selfish in ways, not to share is out What's a tree without root? Lion without tooth? A lie without truth? You hear me out?
[Chorus - x2] Africa must wake up, The sleeping sons of Jacob, What tomorrow may bring, May some more love come, Yesterday we were kings, I tell ya young bloods, The world is yours today...]
