Lyrics

Queen Ifrica:
Tell dem Shuga!
Verse 1:
Took me from my roots
Tried to destroy my stem
They try to cut down my branches
Say dem wah fi see mi life end
But my strength increased
The more that they multiply
The trunk and the root hold firm to the ground
Chorus:
I am Ebony
Ebony is strong
Ebony survives
Ebony is free
I am Ebony
Ebony is strong
Ebony survives
Ebony is free, free
Verse 2:
From Kenya, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Uganda
To the greater and the lesser Antilles
They took us from the motherland in shackles and chains to be slaves in the caribbean
Whoa, weeping my endure for a night
Rejoicing comes in the morning soon we'll be free
We are Ebony
Chorus:
I am Ebony
Ebony is strong
Ebony survives
Ebony is free
I am Ebony
Ebony is strong
Ebony survives
Ebony is free, free
Interlude
Verse 3:
Took me from my roots
Tried to destroy my stem
They try to cut down my branches
Say dem wah fi see mi life end
But my strength increased
The more that they multiply
The trunk and the root hold firm to the ground
Chorus:
I am Ebony
Ebony is strong
Ebony survives
Ebony is free
I am Ebony
Ebony is strong
Ebony survives
Ebony is free, free
