Funeral For Justice Lyrics

Dear African leaders, hear my burning question
Why does your ear only heed France and America?
They misled you into giving up your lands
They delightfully watch you in your fraternal feud
They possess the power to help out but chose not to
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Dear African leaders, hear my burning question
Why solely invest in your own kin’s learning?
While other children suffer on your watch?
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
I boldly proclaim, whether you agree or oppose
Occupiers are carving up your lands while watch
Gallantly marching all over your resources
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Dear African leaders, hear my suggestion
If you do this we will all win
Retake control of your resource rich countries
Build them and quit sleeping
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Dear African leaders, hear my burning question
Why does your ear only heed France and America?
They misled you into giving up your lands
They watch with delight, your fraternal feud
They possess the power to help out but chose not to
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
