Many african children live
Living in a concrete situation
Are living in a concrete situation
They don't know a where ya comin' from
Right here in a mean, wild world
All of the nations are living in these tenements
A crying and applying to the council for us a stance
Now the tribulation it's so sad
Now the environment it is so bad
I rise concrete no backyard for the children to play
Are living in a concrete situation
They don't know where ya comin' a from
All the people are living in these tenements, bring it down
Africa stone wall concrete cubical
The rent increasing every other day
Sure sure rebels a system never done
Lived out of the action on the 27th floor
And when they think world
Don't you know it smell now
They are there in the carnival
They must know a where we're coming from
They don't know a where ya comin' from
They don't know a where ya comin' from
See, some living in a high rise
Some living in a low rise
The children can't go out to play
Some living in a high rise
Some living in a low rise
The children can't go out to play
