Why are we not proud of who we are? We are Africans,
descendants of Sunjata Keita, the emperor of the people.
We have our own and civilisation, which we must be proud of.
Instead, we to look like Westerners, Chinese, Asians,
and Arabs by bleaching our skin, off our land and resources,
and their fashions. As a result,
we are and our traditions escape us.
So who will come to defend our African in our place?

Let's not our back on our traditions
embrace them, be proud of them

Let's not our traditions
We need to welcome them, a miracle
Let's not turn our on them

They to destroy our traditional values
Because we are
We have all our cultural references
Because see us as slaves
Our ancestors have us
want to kill our traditions
Because we are
Our human warmth is

I bow our ancestral traditions, mother
I pray to the spirits of our
I bow before our traditions

Why are we not proud of who we
We try to like Europeans, by bleaching our skin
We try to look like the Chinese and off our resources to them
We think that being Muslim means to cover ourselves top to toe
We want to look like Indians by their bindi to our forehead
Who will on Sunjata's heritage?
I, Diawara proudly stand up and
vow to carry on the ancestral
Who will Africa for us?
Who will live the life in our stead?
We have lost all our references to western culture
If we do not ourselves, no one will ever respect us

Why are we not of who we are?
