Generate meaning
1
Africa, Africa, She was our mother
2
But her sons came back to rediscover
3
Instead took her children and bound them in chains
4
Tortured and forced them to live life in pain
5
We made them slaves
6
We made them whores
7
Made them crawl on all fours
8
And live like animals in rooms with no doors
9
They'd harvest the field while the pale hands would dine
10
And pretend to be civilized while drinking their wine
11
And the blood keeps flowing
12
And the corn aint growing
13
And the mothers are crying
14
And their children are dying
15
Then Africa, Africa, Bled from the mouth
16
With AIDS in the North, Apartheid in the South
17
Limbs are hacked off to subdue with fear
18
Civil War in the Congo, blood diamonds in Niger
19
And the people are all too afraid and hungry to fight back
20
While the USA is dropping down bombs on Iraq
21
One and four people there contract HIV
22
But we don't care here in the land of the free
