Proud African
A song made by Frank Simbeye
Yebo, yebo... Africa to the world!
From the deserts to the oceans, sharp sharp
We rise together, asambe!
I was born beneath the African sun, eish
Where the rivers flow and the children run
My roots are deep in the ancient ground
A thousand stories in every sound
From east to west, from north to south
Wisdom and courage in every mouth
Our drums keep beating, our spirits strong
Africa's heartbeat carries us on, sho
I'm proud to be African
Proud of my black skin color
Proud of my heritage
Proud of my motherland, aweh
Raise your hands and sing it loud
Stand together, make us proud
From generation to generation
Africa is our foundation, let's go!
My skin is gold, my skin is strong, yebo
A living history all along
No matter where this journey goes
The African spirit always shows
From Kilimanjaro touching the sky
To savannahs where eagles fly
Our culture shines for all to see
A symbol of strength and unity, sharp sharp
I'm proud to be African
Proud of my black skin color
Proud of my heritage
Proud of my motherland, aweh
Raise your hands and sing it loud
Stand together, make us proud
From generation to generation
Africa is our foundation, let's go!
Oh Africa, beautiful and free
Your future shines for all to see
Brothers and sisters hand in hand
Building together across the land
One people, one heart, one dream
Stronger than we've ever been, eish
Africa to the world, yebo
Black and proud, forever African!
