Keep your heads up high

Eeeeyh
AmGF
Our history that they stole, Africa
AmGF
Is written in our souls, Africa
Dm
Oldest nation on this earth
Em
Know just what you worth
Well well
Am
Ships that sail to distant places
GF
Robbed us of our rising worlds
Am
History says that you've betrayed us
GF
Talking of the Gods you serve
Am
Hear the rambling in the sky
GF
Tears that our fore fathers cry
Am
And today we're still in chains
GF
Take the shackle from our minds
Dm
You're the corner stone
Em
The king upon the throne
AmGF
How beautiful are thou, Africa
AmGF
Our nation have to bow, Africa
Dm
Don't you fall from grace
Em
You're that sacred place
Aye! Aye-ah-aye!
[Verse 2: Wale]
Power to the people, Motherland representa
I'm on trial with the man she my co-defendant
And I demand her attention, can you focus women?
I'm getting closer to the sky errytime I hit it
Haile Selassie I, "Power of the Trinity"
Soul made in naija, my voice made in Italy
White mans world that I'm livin' in, some say
But it was Africa the continent we all came from
Can't nothing come between me and you
So before I have seeds gotta understand my roots
Gotta understand the truth. We is all king's 'round here
Lifes not all fair, work till we fall dead
Paul goin' hard 'till I urn like a Pall-Bearer
Although my body's in the U.S my heart's there
I can never be ashamed of her, I got my features and my name from her
Mama Africa
Verse 3:
Dm
The richest place on earth

They infiltrate our homes, Africa
AmGF
They claim it as their own, Africa
Dm
Now we must stand tall

To break down all these wall-alls
Well well

Our children must be taught, of Africa
AmGF
The science and the art, Africa
DmEm
Nah Nah Nah Nah Nah Nahhh!
