    Intro:
    This is Kibera and as the sun sets behind the silhouette of the city there is a side of Nairobi, Kenya that tourists never see. An ocean of people living in abject poverty with no running water, sewage or electricity. It's been documented as the largest slum in Africa...

    There is a place in the heart of the Motherland (Africa)
    So many livin' in poverty that I just can't understand
    They used to live like kings but now they're slaves to the system
    They used to rule as warriors but now they're the victims

    Chorus:
    Woe Nairobi
    Woe Nairobi
    We're calling the warriors who are fighting for justice
    Calling emancipators
    Come on and help us
    Woe ya ya

    Oh ya ya ya

    Make shift zinc houses that is where they sleep
    Full up of diseases and the stench of the rubbish heap
    Civilized people just fighting for the dollar
    Surrounded by evil living in a squalor--Nairobi

    (Chorus)

    Bridge:
    So what you gonna do?
    What you gonna do to make a difference?
    Utafanya nini?
    Utafanya nini? (What will you do?)
    For the situation?
    (Repeat)
    ...to solve this problem

    ooh wele...
    It starts with you and me...

    (Chorus)

    We're calling the warriors
    We're calling emancipators
    Oh yes we're calling the freedom fighters
    Just come on and help us oh yeah

    (Bridge)

    Mola wangu nisaidie (My God, help me!)
    Maisha huku Kibich ni magumu (Life in Kibera is hard!)
    Tafadhali nisaidie (Please help me!)
    Nitafanya nini (What can I do?)
