I am an African Child
I am not an African because of my skin colour.
I am not an African because I was born in Africa
by African Parents
I am an African because Mama Africa was born
in me.
I am limitless because I have great gifts and
talents
Africa is my home and I'm proud of my root.
Africa is not a country
Africa is a continent just like Asia, Europe and
America
Mama Africa is blessed with a youthful
population -vibrant youth who are willing to risk
everything to have a decent shot of life.
Mama Africa is not poor
We need foreign trade instead of foreign aids
Mama Africa needs strong and working
institutions instead of strong men.
As an African child, I believe that I'm not too
young to run.
As an African Child, I believe in Africa!
I envision an Africa which will be a beacon of
hope and opportunities
I see an Africa where everyone will live in
harmony regardless of tribe, religion or colour.
Sometimes, as an African child, I cry every
dawn because of the way our leaders are running
affairs.
Corruption is the chronic disease of Africa
As an African child, I will do my best to cure the
disease of corruption.
Oneday, Africa will be borderless
There will be free movement in Africa .
I don't see myself as a Ghanaian or South
African,
I see myself as an African.
So call me the African Child.
Give the African Child an opportunity and they
will deliver.
I believe in Mama Africa
Africa arise!
Whether you are from the East, West, South or
North.
We are one people with one common goal.
God bless the African Child.
