The lyrics of Collectif Youssoumba's "Effort de paix" are a powerful statement against censorship and attempts to silence certain voices. The song begins by referencing the Ivory Coast and the importance of hearing the voices of the people. The line "C'est ça qui est probleme" highlights the problem of those in power attempting to control the narrative and silence those who speak out.
The chorus of the song urges listeners to continue making and listening to music and to resist the attempts of those in power to silence them. The line "Arrêtez vos visila eh" serves as a call to arms for those who refuse to be silenced.
The verse "Est-ce naturale de dis la verité oh mama eh" asks a powerful question about the nature of truth and whether it is natural to speak it. The following lines mention "la pere" (the father), "la vie" (life), and "joueur en cote D′ivoire" (players in the Ivory Coast), indicating that the struggles faced by the people of the Ivory Coast are deeply ingrained in their daily lives.
Overall, "Effort de paix" is a powerful protest song that speaks to the importance of speaking truth to power and resisting attempts at censorship.
