"We are Africans".

We are the wisest living among the wise,
We are the dangers liv'ng among lice',
We are the biggest living with the biggest;
We are the biggest living like smallest.

We are the goodest' in the baddest:
We are the finest in the finest
And also the ugly in the finest,
We are the oldest and the newest.

Africans, we are the realest,
Africans we are the fittest,
We are the dreamer seeming like a pretender;
We are the pretender seeming like a dreamer.

Our skin is alluring,
Our eyes look seem naivety
But our scream is scary;
Our colour is soft black and shining.
 
We get all we want when we say we want it:
We averse what we abhor and stand against it,
We are the cognizance that uses it against our selves;
And the ignorance that stands against our selves.

We are the originals':
We are the vary signals:
We are the comfort in danger:
We are Africans!
