New Nation

(Kasa!)
This song is for a strong Africa (ɛwieɛ)
The Africa that rejects bad leaders (ɛwieɛ)
Bad western influence, bad traditional beliefs (ɛwieɛ)
Believes in change, believes in the uprising of the African youth (Rap Doctor)
And it's for you

I know you cannot wait 'til the storm is over (over)
The light at the end of the tunnel is getting closer (closer)
The war is over now, so put your armour down and
Celebrate, and jubilate, yeah

A new nation (Ghana), a new nation (Naija)
Let the world gather around for the nation
A new nation (SA), a new nation (Kenya)
Let the world gather around and see the vision
A new nation (Egypt), a new nation (Libya)
Let the world (Africa) gather around and (Africa)
Celebrate (oh, yeah, yeah), and jubilate (yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah

Bless the teach, and curse the learn
Here to peach, I can't pretend
From overseas to the local lands
Come on the streets and hold your hands
Close your eyes and understand that
Together, we rise above the standards
The sky is the limit and the limit's the sky
The type of contribution that will limit your mind, so

Forget your stomach and feed your brain first
Dawg your abs, let's see the brain flex
Separatin' ourselves from our separateness
It's the preparation itself for the greatness
Women growing in empowerment
Children growing into great men
With Luther's dream, Obama's faith, Nkrumah's scream
Mandela's faith, and now I scream, "Yeah!"

I know you cannot wait 'til the storm is over (over)
The light at the end of the tunnel is getting closer (closer)
The war is over now, so put your armor down and celebrate
And jubilate, yeah

A new nation (Ghana), a new nation (Naija)
Let the world gather around for the nation
A new nation (SA), a new nation (Kenya)
Let the world gather around and see the vision
A new nation (Egypt), a new nation (Libya)
Let the world (Africa) gather around and (Africa)
Celebrate (oh, yeah, yeah), and jubilate (yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah

It's a new 'day', no fears, put down the new cares
No tears, we're blessed, we cheer to no stress
The more dares we made, more bread, more fed
No rest, eye red, 'til the peace stays here, huh
I'm trying but I don't buy it
White man selling his guns, so hit the buses
Fight, so the kids cannot buy it
"I am willing", spirit of Bob Marley

Akwasi Buroni na awia yi rebɔ ne kurom' gidigidi sei a nka petrol nhia no o
Hey! Kwadwo Bibinii deɛ ahye no ama no ayɛ tumm
Ɔwɔ gold, nso still ahia no o
Amammerɛ nti amammerɛ sesa a, yɛnsesa
Abibirem', yɛpɛ nsesa a, yɛnsesa
Stone o, na nnɛ on the 1st of April
Our motherland shall be fooled no more, come on

I know you cannot wait 'til the storm is over (over)
The light at the end of the tunnel is getting closer (closer)
The war is over now, so put your armor down and
Celebrate (oh, yeah, yeah), and jubilate (yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah

Celebrate (yeah), and jubilate (yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah
Bring them out, bring them out, bring them out now
Let the world come around, see the outcome (bring them out)
Let the lips ask around, "Man, how come?"
Now the world recognise we're the power now
Leave the aid, kill the AIDS, stand proud now
Share the gain, kill the pain
Celebrate (oh, yeah, yeah), and jubilate (yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah
Haha
