Africain
Ne jugez pas, chaque humain est comme il est
Je n'suis qu'un africain
J'veux marcher sur la lune mais l'avouer c'est m'humilier
Et tous les jours, mes frères meurent par centaines et par milliers
J'ai les cheveux crépus, j'pourrais pas les gominer
Ils nous ont divisé pour mieux nous dominer
Ils nous ont séparé de nos frères les antillais
Africain
[Couplet 1: Barack Adama]
J'viens d'ici et j'suis sénégalais
J'viens de France, mon enfance, moi j'vais pas t'l'étaler
J'repense souvent à l'Afrique, j'aimerais la voir décoller
Mais c'qui compte c'est la santé, ouais c'est la santé
J'voulais rentrer au G8 mais je n'suis qu'un africain
Construire des bolides mais je n'suis qu'un africain
Donner mon avis mais du poids j'en ai aucun
Ils m'ont vidé d'mon sang, faut comprendre c'est des requins
Mon bout d'pain... j'ai dû donner
J'l'ai senti de loin... étant donné qu'j'ai un gros nez
Pourtant on est plein... partager ça nous connait
Trop généreux, résultat : toutes nos terres sont volées
[Couplet 2: Lefa]
J'vais t'montrer mes papiers ok mais déstresse
Me parle pas comme si j'étais d'une autre espèce
Pour tous les Africains d'Europe aux States
Qui rêvent de rouler dans des grosses caisses
J'veux voir un africain dans l'espace
J'veux plus voir l'Afrique à genoux
En attendant que les problèmes s'tassent
Si y'a un mafé appellez-nous
[Refrain: Barack Adama & Maître Gims]
[Couplet 3: Maitre Gims]
Dernier l'échelle mondiale les mecs c'est quoi les bails ?
L'Africain Déterminé m'a dit "Gims open your eyes"
Quand ils parlent de l'Afrique, c'est pour citer le nom de plats
J'suis victime d'un faux départ ouais...
Nombreux n'ont pas les loves, il manque tellement de choses
Ils te dirons l'Afrique c'est dangereux mais tout ça c'est des mots
En attendant moi j'veux du boulot cette semaine
J'veux du taf toute la semaine
J'en veux tellement quitte à bousiller mes sapes, mes semelles
Moi j'veux du job cette semaine... Ah !
Et j'en veux beaucoup oh
[Couplet 4: Black M]
J'ai pas d'crampons mais je rêve de soulever la coupe
J'garde le sourire malgré que j'avance dans l'doute
J'ai vu toute sorte d'épreuves venir se poser sur ma route
C'est sûr que j'vais t'en vouloir si j'te vois cracher dans la soupe
J'suis africain, m'en veux pas d'être un peu trop rêveur
Prisonnier d'la hass forever
Oui j'suis un solide souvent je n'tiens qu'avec du maro
Et si Néné a faim j'y mettrais l'prix quel que soit le tarot
J'te laisserai pas m'mettre K.O
Comme le dit Petro, "C'est ça oh !"
[Couplet 5: Doumams]
J'm'appelle Mamadou... y'a pas plus cramé
Pour venir manger chez moi pas besoin d'programmer
Où est le drame mec ?
Sais-tu seulement que c'est le neuveu d'AbdelRahman
On a évolué, tout ça grâce à
Tout c'qu'on a appris dans la madrasah
Quand est-ce qu'on portera le brassard ?
Le jour où la paix nous embrassera
[Refrain: Barack Adama & Maitre Gims] x2
[Outro: Lefa, Barack Adama, Black M & Maitre Gims] x4
J'voulais marcher sur la lune mais je n'suis qu'un africain
Jouir d'avoir des biens mais je n'suis qu'un africain
