Wake up Your Mind by Joni Haastrup

Wake up Your Mind Lyrics

Wake up your mind!
Wake up, wake up, wake up your mind
Wake up, wake up, wake up your mind

Yeah, yeah!
Oh, yeah!
Oh, yeah!
Yeah!

Brother Africans, wake up your minds
Sister Africans, wake up your souls
So fellow Africans, wake up your minds
My brother Africans, wake up your soul
It is the only way to find out what we have to do
It is the only way to get back everything we've lost

'Cause we have gold, we have silver, we have oil
So we've got everything
We have to open our eyes so we can see where we are going
We should open up our minds so we can get back our land

We don't have to wait for no one to tell us what we're gonna do
We don't have to beg nobody to stop the wars in Africa
We don't have to wait for no one to tell us what we're gonna do
And we don't have to beg nobody to stop the wars in Africa

It's about time, yeah, to wake up our minds
It's about time, yeah, so wake up, brothers
It's about time, yeah, so wake up, Africans!

Wake up, wake up, wake up your minds
Wake up, wake up, wake up your minds
Wake up, wake up, wake up your minds
Wake up, wake up, wake up your minds

What are we looking at, Africans?
Say, what are we looking at, people?
We should let them respect our land
It is time to project our culture
We should let them respect our leaders
It is time to project our way of life

Wake up, wake up your minds!
Wake up, wake up your minds
Wake up, wake up your minds
Oh yeah, wake up, wake up, brothers
Wake up, wake up your minds

The African in America
The black man in Australia
The African in Jamaica
It's time to wake up and protect our land

You love to preach Judaism
I love to preach Mohammedanism
We even preach Christianity
But why can't we preach Africanism?
Why can't we preach our way of life?

So wake up, wake up, brothers
So wake up, wake up, sisters
Wake up, wake up, wake up, brothers
Wake up, wake up, wake up, sisters
Wake up, wake up, wake up, Africans
So wake up, wake up, everybody wake up, wake up!
