Azania Calls

Take me !
Take me to rivers and oceans,
Take me to the Nile,
So I may fill my belly
and rinse my body in African waters.

Lead me!
Lead me to mountains and hills,
Lead me to Kilimanjaro,
So I may feed my eyes
On the vast riches of Africa.

Take me!
Take me to deserts,
Take me to Sahara,
So, that my feet may dance to the beat of the burning African soil.

Lead me!
Lead me to Soweto and Alexandria,
Lead me to Azania,
Lead me to where our captured land and stolen gold and enslaved brethren wait for me,

Lead me!
For I have swam in whale-eating oceans,
I have climbed sky-kissing mountains,
I have walked on fire-burning deserts,
Take me ! lead me !
Azania calls

Brain Wetin?

Weder na pain or na gain
Abi na drain or train

But answer me!
Before I give you pain:
You don see somebody

You no love your contri.
But wetin man pickin go do
Afta oga saboteur
Don spoil contri finis?

Becos you tire for chain of
Waka waka unemploy.

Brain wetin?
Dat one na foul!
Make you lef de people
Wey get chance
Make dem go service dem brain
For place where
respect dey for brain.
