How do unite a nation? Not only a nation How do unite a nation? Not only a nation But a whole continent - after colonisation But a whole continent - after colonisation (Ujamaa!) How do you make separate tribes a Pan African Federation? (Ujamaa!) Can we work as a team? Form African socialism? (Ujamaa!) To help every person join in unification? (Ujamaa!) Nyerere almost did it, Arusha Declaration (Ujamaa!) (Ujamaa!) (Ujamaa!) (Ujamaa!) Nationalisation…Nyerere Father of the Nation… Ujamaaaah! One nation! When can we join into one celebration? Without unity, there is no future… for Africa Without unity, there is no future… Ujamaa! Without unity, there is no future… for Africa Without unity, there is no future… Ujamaa! Godless men would make the colour of a man's skin The measure of his rights Godless men would make the colour of a man's skin The measure of his rights Democracy and socialism are rooted in our culture Democracy and socialism are rooted in our culture Democracy is not an imported bottle of Coca-cola Democracy is more than a bottle of American Coca-cola Unity will not make us rich, but it makes it harder For the African people to be humiliated and disregarded My people slave on hands and knees So the owners can hog a banquet My people slave on hands and knees To lick the crumbs off the carpet We don't need white man to teach us democracy It is the beating heart of our community Education is not a key to let us flee from penury It is the weapon to fight the plight of poverty Education will not let us magically escape poverty Education is the weapon we'll use to fight relentlessly Time is now! - Give us corn to eat Time is now! - Give us bread and meat Time is now! - Give us back our voice Time is now! - Give us our vote Time is now! - Give us fire Time is now! - Give us fuel for our ire Time is now! – Let us work together Time is now! – Sister and brother Time is now! – Africans must help one another Time is now! – Africa as one together We spoke as if we'd make utopias Given opportunity Instead self-government gives us tools To create injustice, even tyranny
