Rhythm of the Motherland

In the streets of Lagos We rise with the sun Corruption in the air But our spirit won't run From the villages to the sea light so bright We dance through the struggle holding on tight Dance for the motherland Be the rhythm in your soul, in your soul Unity strong, unity strong Let the horns blow Afro beat fire, burning through the night Through the night I say we fight they say we fight Together we ignite Politicians talking but their words are just smoke We beat the talking drum let the truth be spoke From failure's legacy, to the youth on the rise No more chains, open up your eyes Dance for the mausoleum, feel the rhythm in your soul Unity strong, unity strong, let the horns blow Afro be fire burnin' through the night I said we fight they said we fight Together we ignite In the quiet before the storm we find our voice from pain to power we make our choice a major lift hearts beating as one hope in the groove the battle's just begun Dance for the muscle feel the rhythm in your soul in your soul higher unity strong unity strong let the horns blow Afro beat fire burning through the night through the night eternal I say we fight they say we fight we ignite forever Generations calling, the rhythm never dies In every step, every sway, our pride multiplies No surrender to the dark, we light the way Afrobeat forever Come what may Bye.
