[Couplet 1 - Soprano]
J’ai la peau couleur pétrole
Donc tu connais ma richesse
Beaucoup trop loin sont mes Comores
Donc tu connais ma tristesse
Même, si j’ai poussé loin de la terre de mes ancêtres
Dis-toi bien que mon archipel, c’est la racine de mon être
Yes, j’suis français et fier de l’être
Mais quand je reçois ces lettres
J’ai le tsunami sur mes pommettes
Dans ma tête, des images refont surface
Le visage de mon grand-père, les mariages au village
Sache que je n’peux oublier
L’odeur du poisson grillé
Quand j’allais me promener avec ma mère sur le marché
Pour me réveiller, l’appel pour aller prier
Puis sur un champ on trouvait des cannes à sucre à mâcher
Comment éviter, toute cette pauvreté
Que leur humilité essaie sans cesse de cacher
Je te vois encore pleurer les douleurs du passé
Pour te soigner, écoute tes enfants chanter
[Refrain]
Afrika (aaaaa), gravée dans ma peau et dans mon cœur à tout jamais. (REDK : à tout jamais)
Afrika (aaaaa), malgré les apparences, t’es présent dans mes pensées. (REDK : à tout jamais)
Afrika (aaaaa) (REDK : met en feu de détresse les mots que t’as pas compris)
Afrika (aaaaa) (REDK : tes atouts sont tes faiblesses, tes richesses t’ont appauvri)
[Couplet 2 - Redk]
J’ai le cœur et la tête remplis de souvenirs, après chaque passage au bled
J’m’enrichis grâce à nos terres, j'me le dois de vous le dire
Tout n’est pas si facile ici, mais les gens sont cleans
J’en conclus que la vie n’est pas difficile, On se la complique, Tristesse et peur, et des visages renfrognés, richesse des cœurs et les sourires de la pauvreté
Je vois des cicatrices, des plaies dans tous les domaines, j’comprends que mes petits caprices sont la solution à leurs problèmes
A l’abri dès mon retour, recommencent les vas et viens
Et la vie de tous les jours reprend ses droits en me volant les miens
J’accorde aux miens que des coups de fils les jours de fêtes
Et mes souvenirs les plus précieux sont tous punis dans un coin de ma tête
Comment t’expliquer, je me sens là pas comme ici
Pas de regard inférieur, je suis à l’extérieur comme à domicile
C’est ça la … des fois la vie nous piège, Francçais ou Comorien, j’ai le coccyx entre deux sièges
[Refrain]
[Couplet 3 - Soprano]
Je suis le résultat des sacrifices de mes parents
J’me dois de réussir pour que leurs larmes n’aient pas coulées pour rien
Je vis le rêve africain, et je me dois de l’honorer
Africa est une reine et je suis là pour la couronner
L’Histoire ne t’as pas fait de cadeaux mais chacun de nos succès ramène ta fierté au plus haut
[REDK]
Malgré les pires coups, les darons nous sommes restés polis, Marseillais pure souche (…..)
Ma voix a les mêmes origines que la voix d’Imani, Parait que les nazes et fachos sous-estiment …
Je m’exprime et tu vois les images, ya rien de bizarre, il faut qu’on soit ensemble (……)
Une ambiance cool rien de radical, Je finirai par One Love ...
[Soprano]
Comoria (aaaa) gravée dans ma peau et dans mon cœur à tout jamais
Comoria (aaaa) malgré les apparences, t’es présent dans mes pensées
