[Intro: Samory I]

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse: Samory I]

Easy on the eyes

Heavy on the heart

The land from which we rise

Been taken all apart

Selfishness and greed

Leading our choices

Take more than we need

While the land is left to bleed

[Chorus: Samory I]

Tears of my continent

Won′t fall forever

There'll come a time

When we′ll all draw the line

Tears, but my continent

Won't break, no, never

Know that the best is yet to come

When wе move as one (uh, uh, uh)

When wе move as one (uh, uh, uh)

[Verse: Jesse Royal]

We went from literally being first

To who they deliberately treat the worst (yea)

Keeping my people stuck in reverse

So, how Africa bleeds just to quench your thirst?

How could the richest place on Earth

Be confused 'bout what we′re worth?

Uh, I wonder when you a-go stop it

Use your privilege fi pillage, I man village just to profit

But, I man a-di longest liver

Fertile soil and resilient rivers

Human resource, significant figures

Earth cornerstone, backbone and pillars

No more gold diggers

Dry mi tears before dem reach mi cheek, uh-ha

Stand up and nuh fraid fi speak, uh-ha

As we fight for equality

The only way forward is unity (yea)

[Chorus: Samory I]

Tears of my continent

Won′t fall forever

There'll come a time

When we′ll all draw the line

Tears, but my continent

Won't break, no, never

Know that the best is yet to come

When we move as one

When we move as one

[Verse: Samory I]

The darkest of deeds will be brought to the light

From the lowest of depths to the highest of heights

When the ones who mislead take a stand and unite

And your system will be brought to its knees (brought to its knees)

[Chorus: Samory I]

Tears of my continent

Won′t fall forever

There'll come a time

When we′ll all draw the line

Tears, but my continent

Won't break, no, never

Know that the best is yet to come

When we move as one

When we move as one, hey-yea
