Every day I wake up here's a win (Here’s a win)
'Cause I got here on a dream (Oh yeah)
I still hear my mother praying every day
I'm an African in New York
You dey see am from my pride and energy
When I dey waka down the street (Waka waka)
You can hear it in my accent when I talk
I’m an African in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an African in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an African in New York
I'm gonna make it
I’m going to get it
I’m gonna make it, oh
Gonna get it
I'm gonna make it
I’m gonna make it, oh
Nothing go stop me from green paper that I need (There's nothing, no)
Mandem go hustle 'til we're free (Hustle, hustle, oh)
I’m even hotter out here when it's getting cold
'Cause back home, I promised not to fold, ayy
When I see my brothers and sisters on the train
We say a lot with just our eyes
We're gonna make it through the rain
'Cause in the end we only got one life (One life)
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an African in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an African in New York
I'm gonna make it
I'm going to get it
I'm gonna make it, oh
Gonna get it
I'm gonna make it
I'm gonna make it, oh
African man in New York
You can hear it when I talk
You can see it when I walk
Ayy, ayy, ayy
African man in New York
You can hear it when I talk, oh
You can see it when I walk, oh
