[Verse 1]
A F#m D G
We all came from Africa, we were all once black
A F#m D G
we left for America, Europe and Asia and now we're trying to find our way back
[Chorus]
F#m C#m Dm A
We all used to be tribal people but we're not allowed to be tribal anymore
F#m C#m Dm A
we all used to be naked people but we're not allowed to be naked anymore
[Verse 2]
A F#m D G
Now that we are conditioned and confined we find it hard to understand each others minds
A F#m D G
we are all just trying to survive while we kid ourselves that we were ever civilised
[Chorus]
F#m C#m Dm A
We all used to be tribal people but we're not allowed to be tribal anymore
F#m C#m Dm A
we all used to be naked people but we're not allowed to be naked anymore
[Verse 3]
A F#m
If you take a look around the world and see the wars
D G
you will see that it never is the tribal people that we are fighting for
A F#m
whatever native people that are left around the world
D G
we try to destroy them with our bibles and our swords
[Chorus]
F#m C#m Dm A
We all used to be tribal people but we're not allowed to be tribal anymore
F#m C#m Dm A
we all used to be naked people but we're not allowed to be naked anymore
