LYRICS

Yo, in case you ain’t know

I go by the name of Akon, and I’m from (Africa, Africa)

Home of the Goree Island

I’m from Senegal, Westside (Africa, Africa)

So I’ma share with you and where I’m from

And how I was comin’ up in (Africa, Africa)

So what you know about the struggles

That my people went through so you can live the way you live now?

Say what you know about

Seeing that brand new mother giving away her newborn child?

Say what you know about

Mr. Amadou Diallo, a Senegalese cops shot down?

Said what you know about how people love to perceive us

When we come into a brand new town?

Now what you know about Goree Island

Where all the slaves were shipped from?

What you know about

Being born in America to avoid immigration?

Still from the ghettos of Senegal (Africa, Africa)

Comin’ from the ghettos of Senegal (Africa, Africa)

Comin’ from the ghettos of Senegal (Africa, Africa)

Yes, I’m comin’ from the ghettos of Senegal (Africa, Africa)

So what you know about

Thiéboudieune, yassa, thiéré and maafé, my favorite foods?

So what you know about niggas throwin’ rocks

Bustin’ shots at the military invadin’ my hood?

So what you know about kids with automatic machines

Waiting for the war to get on that side?

So what you know about how God comes first in our lives?

Everything that we do is for Allah

So what you know about

That Holy place called Touba where Prophets were born?

So what you know about

Comin here, gettin money, investing it back home?

Right in the ghettos of Senegal (Africa, Africa)

Give it to the ghettos of Senegal (Africa, Africa!)

Take it to the ghettos of Senegal (Africa! Africa!)

Send it right to the ghettos of Senegal (Africa! Africa!)

Now see that’s just a little piece of how it is (Africa, Africa)

See but we can come together

And make it ‘lot better back home (Africa, Africa)

So don’t complain about how they treating you here

Take your millions of dollars there, back to (Africa, Africa)

We own that land, we own those diamonds

… our lives if we want to (Africa, Africa)

We kings man, we don’t take orders, we give ’em

Think about it
