Lyrics
Yo, yo
Be here now
Rally round the flag
Rally round the red, gold, black and green
Rally round the
Rally round the red, gold, black and green
Marcus say, Sir Marcus say
Red for the blood
That flowed like the river
Marcus say, Sir Marcus say
Green for the land, Africa
Marcus say
Yellow for the gold
That they stole
Sir Marcus say
Sir Marcus say
Black for the people
It looted from
They took us away
Captivity, captivity
Required from us a song
Right now man say repatriate, repatriate
I and I patience have now long time gone
Fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, everyone (ooh)
Four hundred (ooh)
Four hundred million strong
Ethiopia stretch forth her hands
Closer to God, we Africans
Closer to God, we Africans
Closer to God, we can
In our hearts is Mount Zion
Now you know seek the lion
Our hearts is Mount Zion
Now you know, now you know
Ayy, how can we sing in a strange land?
(Sing in a strange land)
Don't want to sing in a strange land
(Sing in a strange land)
Liberation
True democracy
One God, one aim
One destiny
Rally round the
Rally round the
Red for the blood
That flowed like the river
Rally round the
Rally round the
Green for the land, Africa
Rally round the
Rally round the
Yellow for the gold
That they stole
Rally round the
Rally round the
A we the black people
Remember when we used to dress like kings
Conqueror of land
Conqueror of seas
Civilization far moved from caves
