They said: "Many are called and few are chosen"
But I wish some wasn't chosen
For the blood spilling of Rwanda

They said: "Meshach Eshach and Abednego
Thrown in the fire but you never get burned"
But I wish some didn't get burned in Rwanda

They said: "The man is judged according to his works"

There's no money, no diamonds, no fortunes
On this planet that can replace Rwanda
Rwanda, Rwanda
