They took away our singers
But they could not take away our songs

They took away our dancers
But they could not take away our dances

They took away our land keepers
But they could not take away our land

They took away our ancestors
But they could not take away our ancestry

So, be [you] reminded that;

Just as we are, just as we are,
We are who we are
Not because they are—
That, we are
Because like they are, we are
Who we are!

We are Africans
And we are capable & more
When we are together!

Amaaaaaaaaandla!
