Intro:
Brothers and sisters ladies and gentlemen
Agbèròs international, outernational
Afropunks and Afropolitans
Wafunkateers
Time to connect to the Bantu vibe
Show the world you’re alive baby

Afropolitan, sho l’ọ́rọ̀ wọ́ mi
Àwọn t’Olúyọ̀lé, Ìsàlẹ̀ Èkó, Ìsàlẹ̀ Ọ̀fin
Bàbá Alayé, ọ̀gá ìwọ lo wàḿbẹ̀
Bantu ọ̀gá mi bàbá
Gbójú fún ọ̀gá ni, fragbo fílẹ̀
Ẹ sanwó ọmọ ìgboro
To bá ti sanwó ọmọ ìgboro ìwọ lo ní, ìwọ lo ní
Ìwọ lo n’Ìbàdàn tó fi d’Ógbòmọ̀shọ́

Verse 1:
Mr Style-Police why you meddling in my biz
Trying to pigeon hole my vibe and get me on my knees
Your musical apartheid I ain’t gonna bow to
Listen up Mr Sabi-All my name na Bantu
Student, Apprentice of life is what I am
Grenzgaenger, wanderer who don’t fear no man
I stand on the pillars of Paul Robeson and Jack Johnson
Music’s a continuum for the children of the Sun
The cycle of creation is abundant everlasting
As long as you’re open and your soul is willing
We’re The Bad Brains, Fishbone, Living Color Coalition
Brothers with an attitude on a worldwide mission

Chorus:
Na so o o, garri geti as e be upside down inside o
Na so o o, Afropunk, Afrowiz, Afropolitani o
Na so o o, garri geti as e be upside down inside o
Na so o o, Afropunk, Afrowiz, Afropolitani o

Bridge:
Bantu, washere, alayé mo rí ẹ mo yọ̀
Ó kéré kò kéré jẹ́ kí wọ́n fún mi
Àwọn olówó tó m’àwa rèé, àwọn ọ̀gá tó ṣe bí ọ̀gá f’áwa rèé
Bàbá o, alayé ni ẹ́
Kú-kúro l’ọ́nà Bantu ḿbọ̀
Bàbá o, double twale
Ẹ jẹ́ k’álayé kọjá
Àwọn alayé ti wá

Verse 2:
I pledge allegiance to the Brotherhood of Freedom
Got to breath my air free, connect to the great one
Just like Hafiz there’s beauty in our midst
Why try to complicate the facts, and give it all a bad twist
The complexity of my multiple identity
Means you’ve got to consult with me if you want to understand me
Chimurenga attitude, that’s the way I roll
Afropolitan baby, ain’t stretching no bowl
Take your shock therapy, and your Friedman policy
Had enough of you experimenting with me
Take your dog feed, feed ‘em to your dogs
Feed ‘em to your cats cause we don’t play like that
Bwateeee...

Chorus:
Na so o o, garri geti as e be upside down inside o
Na so o o, Afropunk, Afrowiz, Afropolitani o
Na so o o, garri geti as e be upside down inside o
Na so o o, Afropunk, Afrowiz, Afropolitani o
