TERAANGA (feat. B.LIN)

Change is all that's promised
You ain't keep your promise

This is Goree island
Fresh from off the ferry
The heaviness in air
Is a lot to carry
Allow me to be your tour guide
If there was a college for picking cotton
This where niggas would've got a full ride
On scholarships, our brightest and strongest went
Teachers, healers and artist went
Scientist, astrologers
Carpenters
Botanist
Business men
Economist
Fondly missed
This is how the states grew such prominence
A reflection of Africa's opulence
Senegal's still got the Franc in circulation
Now use your common sense

We need more to change
We need more than change
We can start with reparations
But we got more to gain
We need more to change
We need more than change
We can start with reparations
But we got more to gain
Change is all that's promised
You ain't keep your promise
Can't expect you to be honest
Can't respect you to be honest
We need more to change
We need more than change
We can start with reparations
But we got more to gain
Can't expect you to be honest
Can't respect you to be honest
Change is all that's promised
You ain't keep your promise
Can't expect you to be honest
Can't respect you to be honest
Change is all that's promised
You ain't keep your promise
Can't expect you to be honest
Can't respect you to be honest

If you're looking at the world
Everybody running for African resources
Whether it's the Chinese, the Europeans, The Americans
That's just what it is
Because it's still Virgin

What happened is
Africa has put backward
Kicked down
Everything
So Africa was put down
Africa can't do but to get up
Arica can't do but to grow
