Senegal lyrics

Yow
In case u aint know I go by the name of akon and im from(afrika afrika) home of the goree island im from senegal westside(afrika afrika)
so im gonna share with you on where
I'm from an how i was comin up(afrika afrika.

So what you know about the strugles that my people went trough so you can live the way you live now
Say what you know about seeing that brand new mother giving away her newborn child
what u know about mr amadu ndiaij that the senegalis cops shot down say what u know about how people love to perceive us when we are comin to a bran new town now what u know about goree island were all the slaves were shiped from
what u know about beeing born in america to avoid the imigration

Still from the ghettos of senegal(afrika afrika)
Comin from the ghettos of senegal(afrika afrika)
comin from the ghettos of senegal (afrika afrika)comin from the ghettos of senegal(afrika afrika)

What you know about schebujcen yassa Schene and mafe my favorite foods
Say what you know about niggas trowing rocks buseshats at the military invatin my hood
So what you know about kids whit automatic machins waiting
for the war to get on their side

So what you know about how god comes first in their lives everything that we do is for allah
So what you know about
that holy place called tuba where prophets are born and what you know about comin here gettin money investin it
back home

Afrika, we own that land, we own those diamonds,
they can be ours if we want to, Afrika, Afrika,
we kings man, we don't take orders, we give em, think about it
