Mother-Land

Childrens of mother land! Citizens of mother land! I call upon you my fellow neighbours! Hear my concern my fellow neighbours! We heard reports about your Africans around the globe Citizens of the world yell like monkeys when they see them They are likened to mandrill and shown bananas Africa you portrayed yourself as beggars and inept Africa! Your children are scatted all over In pursuit of greener pastures My brothers let us turn Guns into plowshares Africa unite to fight against ailments and poverty Poverty is claiming lives of your people AIDS is robbing lives of our brothers and sisters Crime is stealing our dignity and our pride Citizens of the world have a distorted view of us Why unite only when there is a feast Mother land is bigger than world cup Mother land is bigger than Africa Day Africa is a home to all who dwell in Africa How long shall we blaze with anger against each other How long it will take us to unite as one nation How long before we combat prejudice How long before we combat xenophobia Who are we fighting people? Who is our enemy? Blood is not an ink to paint our mother land's portrait Africa Unite! We are bigger than civil wars
