Barack Obama, son of Africa A new hope for this era A change for the better You courted the world And won their hearts So filled with passion To achieve your mission You forged through the maze To bring a world of change
Barack Obama Many are they that thought ‘How can it be?’ Many are they that sought But could not see This soulful dream Of hope and beam You have now become An inspiration for some
Yea, Martin Luther King Dreamt of such a day Where Men will not be judged per say By the colour of their skin Or by empty words of flatter But by the content of their character But I wish to know this one thing By this choice of a leader Does this mean racism is over?
It was said by the prophets of old ‘Africa will rule the world’ Come to pass it has Yea, we will forever rejoice For this victory of choice In the season of strong tides Our prayers will ride Away the great wave And bring forth the mighty to save
Son of Africa This is a victory sure We urge you on Fight the good fight Though there may be plight There will always be hope To climb on the ropes To that place of harmony
