Lyrics:

African roots
Just call me African roots
Please call me African roots
Just call me African roots

I was born and raise in the ghetto
With the blood of African roots
So you can always call me
Call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Please call me African roots
Just call me African roots

Weôe been taken away from Africa
More than five hundred years ago
But one thing they didn't take
Is the roots out of my mind
So call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Please call me African roots

Said it doesn matter to me
If they call me African roots
Here I am as an African
Born and raise in the ghetto

I was born and raise in the ghetto
With the blood of African roots
So you can always call me
Call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Please call me African roots
Just call me African roots

African roots
Just call me African roots
Please call me African roots
Just call me African roots

Said it does matter to me
If they call me African roots
Said here I am as an African
Born and raise in the ghetto

Said I was born and raise in the ghetto
With the blood of African roots
So you can always call me
Call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Just call me African roots
Please call me African roots

Just call me African roots
Please call me African roots
Just call me African roots
