I′m not gonna give it up
I'm not goin′
I'm not gonna give it up
I'm not goin′
I will be fighting
I′ve got to be fighting
I will be fighting
Til Africa
And Africans are free
I said that I been up there
And I've seen poverty beyond compare
I know slave drivers just don′t care
They just don't care
Africa′s the richest place
But it has the poorest race
And to me it's just a disgrace
Just a disgrace
Africans don′t wait too long
We gotta fight 'cause it's not wrong
Won′t you join in and sing this song
Sing this song
To be poor it′s a hurtful pain
Livin inna poverty it's a burning shame
Help yourself ′cause man you're not lame
You are not lame
