They said: "Many are called and few are chosen,"
But I wish some wasn't chosen
for the blood spilling of Rwanda
They said: "Meshach, Shadrack and Abednego,
Thrown in the fire but you never get burned,"
but I wish that I didn't get burned in Rwanda
They said: "The man is judged according to his works,"
so tell me Africa, what's your worth?
There's no money, no diamonds, no fortunes
On this planet that can replace Rwanda

If America, is the United States of America,
Then why can't Africa, be the United States of Africa?
And if England, is the United Kingdom,
Then why can't Africa unite all the kingdoms and become United Kingdom of Africa?
Then why can't Africa unite all the kingdoms
