Yes I do welcome, this generation
With vast education, steadfast for the nation
You might be thinking while you're in the situation
“Life have opportunity”? Congratulations.
Show love and unity, you give inspiration
And answers, with the necessary information
About to live among ourselves in this civilization
Knowledge, woah, remove the frustration
Building a new way, for the foundation
To the college, provide all His accommodations
Thanks for all your achievements, you made
me strong, I sing my song

All your life you're going to fight the fightest
Can't see the slightest change for brightest – woah!

Preserving African motherland for us

Oh let me observe, mmm, I'm sailing like a bird. You heard?
Jah protect and guide and keep us all preserved
You neglect us, reject us, and say we are dirt
Now we are surviving, you can't say a word
Give them a shield and armor, all properly gird, you little nerd
We got the whole of the them just a turn
Blue for boys, pink for girls, girls to boys, boys to girls
Red, gold and green rule the world!

Chorus
Boy move up! The youths them prospering –
