When are we going to wakeup
Real fast like cheetah and smell the coffin
That things aren't the way it was before
Day in day out we rely on God to do it all for us
Our nation is dying and God cannot come down
And we expect Him to do
One miracle like that
But our fate is placed right in our hands
Moses was used to setting the Egyptians
Off from the hook of their oppressors and Pharaoh
Just one man brought redemption to Israelites
Just like Bob Marley sang many years ago
That hit track Redemption Song
Likewise in our day today, we need men
Not mere men just like that song by Pita titled One Man
Africa has been a scar on the heart of the world
For so long we have watched our sovereignty tramped upon
Walked upon with dignity as we lost our say among nations of the world
Our leaders sell us out administration after administration
Going to beg for grants and borrowing to enslave
The unborn generation into slavery
For how long we continue in this circle
Chasing what is never lost
While we have all that can make us great
Our greed and food for the belle
Won't allow us to see these great treasure we have with us
The greatest problem of Africa
Is not a tsunami not an earthquake
Is never a natural disaster
But a man-made disaster
The day we realize all these
Africa, we are great again
Our problem is bad leadership
Full of themselves exhuming selfish policy
For the betterment of themselves alone
Defrauding the state resources
Left in the hands of a selected few ones
African for Africa
Africa must arise
From the shackles of this bad leadership
Of tyranny and editorship kinds of self-centered and selfish leadership.
