letra de athens of west africa - jasper sembie

i’m from the athens of west africa, you can check our pedigree
whatever your needs for diamonds we’ve got the remedy
freetown’s cotton tree is not just an effigy
land of the slaves set free, check your history
the culture is incredible the people are sucker-free
peace, love, unity. greatness is our destiny
cassava leaves potato leaves in our recipe
spectacular vernacular – krio, mende temne
landscape unique, lion mountains you need to see
jasper – truth in the booth, this is liturgy
natural scenery. wildlife – an epitome
slaves sites in bothe island – still a mystery
listen me – you need to see the beaches
the natural harbor – i’m sure will leave you speechless
come see the island, a place called lungi
cereal called funday drums called gumbay
peaceful, no f
fiasco….. no lupe
but ormorlay is ‘food and liquor’ so – lupe
look hey, the media is feeding you lies
pic of slums and kids infested with flies
the truth they disguise, bright side they despise
whether you like it or not africa will rise!
land of innovation, talents we bestow
the prosthetics of david sengeh you should know
davidson nicol – insulin – go tell the globe
the youth are avant garde, watch, the young shall grow
but, they never show the beauty on the other hand
the unique selling points of the mother hand
the hospitality, here we’re all brothers man
but good news is no news brother man
freetown city the streets never sleep
december there are carnivals everyday of the week
get a panoramic view from leicester peak
or watch the sunset standing on burreh beach
hear freetong players charlie haffner when they speak
rich salone culture acapela when they teach
they say beauty fades i say ‘ask when’
we’re the best now, was the best then!
beauty galore, grace extends
peace love unity, spread it to the next man
