Yes I!
Yes Afrikan people.
Yes my Black people.
You can’t forget your birthplace.
You can’t forget where you’re coming from.
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind].
Mi keep Afrika on my mind.
Cah Afrika so divine
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind].
Keep Afrika on my mind. Oh oh.
Children of the Diaspora.
You are an extension of Mama Afrika. Yeah.
When She cry, we cry.
[Tell me who] Who is gonna stand by her side.
Fi real Iyah
Hands and hearts must join together.
Messenjah Selah
To ease the pressure.
Alongside Queen Omega
Afrika needs her children.
And her children do, need her just the same.
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind]. Afrika pon my mind
Keep Afrika on my mind. She is so divine
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind].
Keep Afrika on my mind.
Afrika is the place for me.
The Motherland, Shashamane.
Ethiopia, the Holy city, that is my destiny.
Repatriation! Liberation!
Unification! Must build the foundation.
Can’t forget my brothers and sisters on the continent all over.
As long as you’re Black, you’re an Afrikan, so lets work together.
We were separated, stolen, lacerated.
Because of slavery.
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind].
Afrika!
Keep Afrika on my mind. Yeah yea yeah
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind].
Keep Afrika on my mind.
The Motherland!
Whites in Afrika still enslaving.
Shame!
Blacks in Afrika still enslave.
Whatta shame!
Tribal war still fighting.
Can’t forget the disease and famine.
For much too long we’ve been the victim.
That’s why we put the fyah pon the system.
Mama Afrika! Your children is calling.
To you we’ll be running with the singing and drumming.
Right now, She’s not doing fine.
You cannot leave her behind.
Can’t leave her behind!
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind].
Mi keep Afrika on my mind.
Cause she is so divine.
Keep Africa on your mind [Afrika on my mind].
Keep Afrika on my mind.
Messenjah Selah, for real!
Afrika pon my mind, she is so divine.
This song for the world and Afrika is like the spine.
The Motherland is the best, I must confess.
So we a truck through the East, forget about the west.
Beginning of creation.
She is the foundation.
As an Afrikan you must be proud and strong!
Full of royalness!
And yes, we are blessed.
Mama Afrika, She is the highest!
Yea yeah yes!
Afrika you’re always ON MY MIND.
Keep Afrika always on your MIND.
She is so sweet
Yes you are, Mama Afrika.
She is, so sweet.
Yea yea yea yeah. . .
