- Born In Africa Lyrics / with translationsThe past has gone
The future is yet to come
Hear this
Going back to my roots
Born in Africa
'cause I'm born in Africa
Born in Africa
True born Africa I true
Cause I'm a born African
Jah know!
Say mi come from Nigeria land of oil
Land of diamond, gold and sugarcane
We plant cossawa & sweet potatoes
We have a lot of thing but no discipline
Discipline!
That's what we got from colonialism
All this was Babylon business
White man never give up Africa
White man never give up the business business
Why this division in Africa
Why this division in the system
It doesn't have no moral and no self conscious
Some of them went to America
Some of them went to the Caribbean
Some of them died over the Atlantic
South Africa Egypt
Lybia Algeria
Zimbabwe Mozambique
Angola Rwanda
Nigeria Morocco
Tunisia and Ghana
The future is yet to come
Hear this
Going back to my roots
Born in Africa
'cause I'm born in Africa
Born in Africa
True born Africa I true
Cause I'm a born African
Jah know!
Say mi come from Nigeria land of oil
Land of diamond, gold and sugarcane
We plant cossawa & sweet potatoes
We have a lot of thing but no discipline
Discipline!
That's what we got from colonialism
All this was Babylon business
White man never give up the business business
Why this division in Africa
Why this division in the system
It doesn't have no moral and no self conscious
Some of them went to America
Some of them went to the Caribbean
Some of them died over the Atlantic
South Africa Egypt
Lybia Algeria
Zimbabwe Mozambique
Angola Rwanda
Nigeria Morocco
Tunisia and Ghana
