[Afrika Bambaataa:]

Why do you (you) (you) (you)

come to di land (di land) (di land)

Zulu (Zulu) (Zulu) (Zulu) (Zulu) (Zulu)



[Brother Jay:]

Brother Jay speaks, silly mortals take heed

Protected by the red, black, green with a key

Slaves from the Motherland, boy, what a drag

Especially when royalty's chained by a caveman

A vanglorious way by the colors

Free South Africa and free our Mother



[Professor X:]

Mandela, protected by the red, the black and the green

With a key

Sissyyyyyyyy-ah



Ndodemnyama Mr. Botha

Ndodemnyama South Africa



[Lakim Shabazz:]

We're black by popular demand, let's take a stand

Break the Klan and join hands

We got to struggle and fight for what's right

Cause this government got a got grip and they hold it tight

I know your grip will slip, that's if we strive for perfection

In the right direction

Freedom, justice and equality

For you and me, it's plain to see

What we need is black unity



[Afrika Baby Bam of Jungle Brothers]

Yeah

(Alright)

Ah-ha

(Alright)

Yeah

(Alright)

I give it to brothers in the north, south, west and east

Grandfather Bambaataa said I could speak my piece

Grab a few bars and what I say is that

Crush that African Apartheid bullcrap

Poppa had this before you

I got my rifle to your dome, now what you wanna do?



[Mike G of Jungle Brothers:]

Think about a brother never havin a say so

When they say come you come, when they say go you go

Eat what you're given and not what you wanted

Limitations on your livin and you still gettin taunted

If the Father of Creation was to come at you down

You'd find a very pleasant home six feet under the ground

Poppa was here before you

I got my rifle to your head, now what you gonna do?



Ndodemnyama Mr. Botha

Ndodemnyama South Africa



[UTFO:]

Dr. Martin Luther King died for the people

Because society wouldn't treat us equal

Racism existed, it dawn on ya?

How would you feel if your home was taken away from ya?

Murdered, beaten, hung, that's a sin

That's in the past - my man, it's still happenin

The three of us, psst, we ain't chokin

UTFO have spoken



Ndodemnyama Mr. Botha

Ndodemnyama South Africa



[Master Rob of Ultimate Force:]

The plan was a scam and those who concocted the plan

Rose up and took over the Motherland

Since it's bloodshed and violence

And those who dare speak out like Mandela were silenced

But it takes but a spark

In the heart and the soul for a man to embark

On his quest for freedom

And if they stand as one, then no one can beat em

Always told when to live or die

But as our babies cry we say down with apartheid

Master Rob and Diamond D

We'll keep on fightin till South Africa's free



(We need it)



Ndodemnyama Mr. Botha

Ndodemnyama South Africa



[Grand Puba of Brand Nubian:]

Free South Africa - well ah

Mandela locked in a cellar

What's the reason? Caucasians say it's treason

Don't front on me cause it's not the type of season

Less than a sec to give some brothers direc'

I add the words and my beat will connect

Causin a trauma more than a bullshit drama

Coma, Brand Nubian suited and armored

Raise the flag, the color's green, black and red

You make a fist and put it over your head

You see, we only came here to pull a rug out

Step to the place, slam it out, back to the dug out



[Kings Of Swing:]

Stand up, put your hand up, help a brother

Wave the peace sign, yo, word to the mother

We are the Kings Of Swing rock shockin the rhyme

Yo, to help free the black man in all mankind

I'm glad to get together because the move is strong

To free South Africa in a hip-hop song

You need freedom and justice to correct your sin

Yo Mike, what's the true colors? Red, black and green



[????]

Treat people like people and animals like animals

You eatin people's freedom, you worse than cannibals

There's something I think you should know

Fuck you and let my people go

You don't like us? So what, we don't like you

They say we're racist, ah-ah, it's not true

Look in the mirror, can you see the light?

I know you could cause your ass is white



[Queen Latifah]

Praise me not as a queen of a queendom

Who took a few slaves for they were weak and I seen them

I'm an advocate of positivity

I wrote this rhyme to show the blind creativity

We demand our freedom, you promise ifs, ands or maybes

Cut us no slack and still kill our babies

The time to tolerate apartheid is over and done

So watch the world say the black man won



[SOLO:]

Noir ou blanc, il n'y a pas de couleur POUR ETRE  dans le temps

Mais en Afrique Du Sud, L'HOMME BLANC MARCHE A CONTRE COURANT

Et certains gouvernements, pour se donner bonne conscience

Prennent des sanctions - bidons pour appaiser une tension

Qui ne cessera qu'avec la libération de Mandela

Et quand Peter Botha et sa clique de FACE DE RATS

Libéront de toute oppression et sans condition

Tous mes frères



[Revolucien:]

Afrique, specialement dans le sud

Là où la violence est la plus rude

Retour dans le passé, l'emblème (A CROIX GAMME)

Pour eux c'était une (SEULE IDEE CELLE D'ELIMINER) éliminé

Ku-Klux Klan et l'apartheid

Ont le même problème, toujours la même histoire de dingue

La race arienne - de toute façon

En attendant la suite

Ecoute-moi ce beat



[raggamuffin segment]



[Lin Que:]

Apartheid - white supremacy

Nelson Mandela - damn, let us be

Segregation degrading to the black man

It's not only the problem of South Africans

My attitude towards whites turns sour

We must join hands and get with the black power

Lumumba, Professor X, The Overseer

The Blackwatch is protected by the leader



[Professor X:]

Vanglorious, protected by the red, the black and the green

With a key

Sissyyyy-ah



[Lin Que:]

Buried all my bones in the sands of the Motherland

Our fate in the hands of the white man

This involves more than separation

The white population occupies supremacy

Stripped us of our dignity and our identity

And our humanity, why such insanity?

What kind of world are we livin in?

Jugding one's worth by the color of a skin



[Professor X:]

Zoom

Zoom

Zoom

[Arthur X:]

Well, I'm Arthur X from the Nation of Islam

Preparin to drop another big bomb

I know what time it is, I see the picture

And you will too if you understand scriptues

Botha, you walk the wrong path

The time has come for you to feel the wrath

Can't sleep, can't wait, no time to rest

Cause Allah has always been on the side of the oppressed
