Текст песни: I Free Ka + перевод

Let it be known, so many things have been hidden from the screen

Tu deviens fort, tu deviens rêves, tu deviens prince, tu deviens king!

Gad jan li bèl, gad jan lap maché, sé pou toute pitit Dessalines

So many forces down the street, seducing the brains of beautiful beings

They haven’t told us, we be the most dangerous people on the planet

They don’t even see us as people as long as we keep it quiet

They like when we fantasize about the size of a bank account

But what about when we strategize on sankarizing spiritual mountains

Let’s be the ones, let’s the two’s, let’s be the three’s that we waited for

Let’s be beyond Lebron, let’s skywalk like Jackson Michael Jordan

We got some politics to take care of, cause we’re been robbed for a while

Let no man tell you tthat you’re too inexperienced cause you be a child

Get up and smile, Charlie Chaplin style, some folks are gonna get burned

This life is borrowed from the stripes that our ancestors earned

Much independance spiritually taken from the mighty chants of pain

No pain no gain, your life is a dream, and dreams are really not vain

(Second verse)

We never been cursed, never been doomed, never were born for deception

Get up and rehearse, and just re-burst through the hall of real independance

Ne doute pas du don que t’as, fonce dans le tas, fais des dégâts

Garde la foi, en cette voix, au fond de toi, qui te dit crois

Ou pa ka dim sé mwen ki gin madichon suspann palé-m mal

Map mété toute espwa mwin an lè an nan zetwal

Dare to change the things, that are broken

Don’t let them treat you like token

Blessed like a reverend, why should you ever fucking doubt your heaven

You’re african, even if you gotta funny name like Kevin

Look at your thoughts, look at your tone, no Indiana Jones

Elders be the one that left a gift more precious than stones (of Sierra Leone)

Whether you’re torn of complete with your sense of identity

Know that you’re never alone, even in chains, you’re free

The war so irrational, ripping through the capital of the soul

Yearning for the remnants of gold, they’re digging deep in the bones

Call for action brethren and sisters, in the name of the law and love,

in the name of believers

(Outro)

Bay kou bliye, pote mak sonje

Listoua yap rakonte son listoua tête anba

Si yo te konnin kijan nap soufri de toute bagay sa

Poutoutepitite Henri Christophe, Patrice Lumumba

Bay kou bliye, pote mak sonje

Listoua yap rakonte son listoua tête anba

Si yo te konnen kijan nap soufri de toute bagay sa

Pou toute pitite Toussaint Louverture, Thomas Sankara

Bay kou bliye, pote mak sonje

Listoua yap rakonte son listoua tête anba

Si yo te konnen kijan nap soufri de toute bagay sa

Pou toute pitite Malcolm X, Kwame Nkruma

(some of them try to kill us but we still exist)
