Rise Up Africa
A song made by God'slove Obueh
Intro
Africa, Africa, stand strong
Verse 1
They came with chains and broken dreams
Stole the gold and the dignity
Centuries of pain and suffering
But the spirit cannot be buried, no
We built the world with our own hands
Yet they still try to hold us down
But Jah see everything we do
The truth will rise, yes it's overdue
Chorus
Rise up Africa, rise up today
Shake off the shackles, find your own way
The power within you will never fade
Rise up Africa, come what may
One love, one heart, we're here to stay
Big up the children of the ancient days
Verse 2
They write the history, twist the truth
But we remember our roots, yah mon
From the great kingdoms to now
We never lost our crown
Forward, forward is the only way
Build our nation, make it strong
Education is the key
Bless up the youth who will be free
Chorus
Rise up Africa, rise up today
Shake off the shackles, find your own way
The power within you will never fade
Rise up Africa, come what may
One love, one heart, we're here to stay
Big up the children of the ancient days
Outro
Africa, Africa, irie
One love forever
