Africa nouveau western, j'braque
les dignitaires en diligence
J'suis même pas expert, j'suis ni
militaire ni militant
Quand le peuple espère pouvoir
diriger ses dirigeants
Les colons sectaires reviennent
diviser nos dividendes
En forme [timide bande ?], à qui
profite le trafic ?
Les Noirs se tirent dessus, pourtant
les armes ne viennent pas d'Afrique
Graphique, les paradoxes, on
connaît, on peut être richesEt mourir de pauvreté, va
l'demander au peuple Congolais
Et j'porte ma colère comme un faux
coupable en garde à v'
On reviendra beaucoup plus
redoutables après ce carnage
J'entends les bruits d'balles, on
s'tait pendant qu'le fric parle
Mais nan, ma sœur, ne flippe pas,
et lève ton poing en l'air, refrain

On m'a dit : "La France : tu l'aimes
ou tu la quittes."
J'répondrai à cette offense quand
vous nous rendrez l'Afrique

C'est pour les princesses et les fils
fiers, ceux qui font des sacrifices,
frère
Ceux qui répandent la paix, qui
répondent à l'appel, qui vont
prendre des risques, frère
Décalage de nos hémisphères, mon
continent et ses mystères
Tremblement des peurs,
tremblements des cœurs vus sur
l'échelle de Richter
Combien de langues de vipères ?
Combien de lendemains qui
s'perdent ?
Combien de camps ? Combien de
gangs ? Combien de gens qui se
dispersent ?
J'peux pas répondre à leurs
critères, j'ai entendu tous les cris
d'guerre
Fatalité est le berceau de
l'humanité, en deviendrait le
cimetière
Nique les escrocs d'la dissidence,
j'combats ceux qui m'agressent
Négrophobie en Occident, pire
encore au Maghreb
Et l'ignorance reste la pire des
soumissions
J'suis pas issu d'l'immigration, moi,
j'suis issu d'la colonisation
J'prie pour la mobilisation, l'espoir
après les crises
J'veux pas être victime de
l'Histoire, j'veux qu'mes enfants
l'écrivent
Parce que je crois en leur avenir,
aux fruits de leur effort
Or, pétrole, terre, écoles, espoir,
jeunesse, rêve, refrain
