Lyrics:
Get Up and Do Something (ft. Fannie Lou Hamer) - Elikya Ngoma
Verse (Fannie Lou Hamer)
You can pray until you faint
But if you don't get up and try to do something
God is not going to put it in your lap
And it's no need of running and no need of saying
"Honey, I'm not gon get in the mess."
Because, if you were born in America with a black face,
You were born in the mess!
Give Ngoma Some
(Elikya Ngoma - music)

Lyrics:
Make the Struggle (ft. Ella Baker) - Elikya Ngoma
Verse 1 (Ella Baker)
A little boy on the streets of Norfolk called me a nigger,
I struck him back!
I struck him back!
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Verse 2 (Ella Baker)
I had to learn that hitting,
Back with my fists,
One individual, was not enough
It takes organization,
It takes dedication
It takes the willingness to stand by
And do what has to be done
When it has to be done
Give Ngoma Some
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Bridge (Ella Baker)
You have to go back and reach out to your neighbors
Who don't speak to you
And you have to reach out to your friends
Who think they are making it good
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Verse 3 (Ella Baker)
Until we can get people to recognize
That they themselves
Have to make the struggle
And have to make the fight for freedom
Every day
In the year
Every year
Until they win it
Thank you!
(Elikya Ngoma - music)

Lyrics:
Liberate the Minds (ft. Marcus Garvey) - Elikya Ngoma
Verse 1 (Marcus Garvey)
Today, Africa's walking around not only on her feet, but on her brains.
You can enslave, as was done for 300 years, the bodies of men,
You can shackle the hands of men,
You can shackle the feet of men,
You can imprison the bodies of men,
BUT YOU CANNOT SHACKLE OR IMPRISON THE MINDS OF MEN!
Give Ngoma Some
(Elikya Ngoma - Music)
Verse 2 (Marcus Garvey)
So give us credit for being able to use our minds.
And with people becoming conscious of themselves,
Determined to use their minds,
You do not know to what extent they can go.
Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
(Elikya Ngoma - Music)
Vamp (Marcus Garvey)
Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Animasyon (Elikya Ngoma)
Now everybody say (liberate the minds...)
All my African people (liberate the minds...)
At home and abroad (liberate the minds...)
Black people, my people! (liberate the minds...)
Okay! (liberate the minds...)
Whether you're down on the Continent (liberate the minds...)
Or in the Caribbean (liberate the minds...)

Lift your voices and say (liberate the minds...)
Outro (Elikya Ngoma)

Liberate, liberate!
(Repeat)

Lyrics:
Lanmou Pou Ayiti (ft. Gessica Généus) - Elikya Ngoma
Intro (Gessica Généus)
Ki kalite lanmou nou genyen pou Ayiti?
Elikya Ngoma - music)
Give Ngoma Some
Verse 1 (Gessica Généus)
Èske n vreman
Renmen peyi sa
Nan yon espwa ke yon jou l ap,
L ap vin gen structure?
Paske gen anpil moun
K ap mande
Pou...dictature tounnen
G'anpil moun k ap di Ayiti
Se dictature li bezwen
Verse 2 (Gessica Généus)
Actuellement la nou bezwen
Lanmou!
Lanmou ke nou pa t janm jwenn nan, an Ayiti a
Lanmou ke tout timoun sa yo, k ap grandi nan la rue sa pa janm jwenn nan,
Sa vle di
Aksè, pou yon moun ap pran swèn yo
Assure yo ke yo lekòl
Assure yo ke yo manje
Assure yo ke yo g'on structure,
Ankadreman ke gen paran ki an mesures pou
Pran responsablite yo
Se sa k lanmou an wi
Aussure yo ke moun nan gen aksè, ke tout moun gen aksè
Avèk...tout sa ki ka permèt yo genyen yon vi meilleur
Ke tout moun gen aksè sa a, a menm nivo
San diskriminasyon, se sa k lanmou an
Actuellement la, se sa nou bezwen
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Bridge (Gessica Généus)
Nou bezwen lanmou, nou pa bezwen anyen lòt ankò
Nou bezwen yon moun pran swen peyi sa, pran swen pèp la
Refleksyòn an pou mwen, pou ou, pou nou tout se
"Ki kalite lanmou nou genyen pou peyi sa?"
Ki kalite lanmou nou gen pou li?
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Verse 3 (Gessica Généus)
Li ènpòtan pou n defini,
Lè nou di nou renmen l
Kisa k vin nan tèt nou?
E m konnèn li dure, pou w renmen yon peyi, pou w re--
Nan yon anviwònman
Pou w renmen yon anviwònman, ke w grandi ladan
Ki plus fè w mal ke byen
Men, fò w konprann ke anviwònman sa pa egziste pou kont li,
S'on sistèm ki kreye l, e se sistèm nan pou w goumen
Se pa kont chak moun èndividyèlman, se kont sistèm nan...pou w goumen
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Outro (Gessica Généus)
Refleksyon m avè nou jodia a se
"Ki lanmou nou genyen pou peyi sa?"
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Ngoma Li Ye!

Lyrics:
Pa Di m Ayiti Pòv! (ft. Elikya Ngoma) - Elikya Ngoma
Verse 1 (Elikya Ngoma)
Isi...
Nenpòt lè y ap pale de Ayiti
Yo di "Haiti! The poorest country in the Western Hemisphere"
"Ayiti!..
Peyi ki pi pòv...nan l'Amériques."
Sa se yon lòt jan yo konn di l tou, right?
"The poorest country in the Americas."
Give Ngoma Some
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Verse 2 (Elikya Ngoma)
Lè y ap bay rapò de yon siklonn, oubyen yon--
Yon tranbleman de tè ki pase Ayiti
Fò yo di: oh nou pèdi tèl konbyen moun paske se "peyi ki pi pòv nan l'Amériques." Right?
Men fò w panse: poukisa yo di sa chak fwa?
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Bridge (Elikya Ngoma)
Kisa ki enpòtan a fwaz sa, ki fè yo paka pa di l,
Yo pa janm manke di l
Gen yon plan, se yon ide y ap mete nan ou,
Nan moun ka p resevwa enfòmasyon sa
Verse 3 (Elikya Ngoma)
E se nou menm, ki pou reyalize sa,
E pou nou di: ey, si w ap bay rapò de Ayiti, m pa vle tande fwaz sa
Oubyen, si w ap bay fwaz sa, fò w bay verite a
Pa di m ke Ayiti pòv, si w pa di m poukisa Ayiti pòv
Pa di m Ayiti pòv, si w pa di m ke se tout peyi blan yo
Ki toujou gen men nan richès Ayiti, k ap vòlè Ayiti
Pa di m Ayiti pòv, si w pa p di m sa
Pa di m Ayiti pòv, si w pa p di m ke menm gouvènman sa yo,
Yo gen moun k ap travay pou yo andan gouvènman Ayisyen an,
K ap pran tout richès peyi a, k ap bay yo
Pa di m Ayiti pòv, si w pa di m tout sa, e yo pa p di w tout sa
Paske pou yo di tout sa, fò yo admet ki wòl yo jwe ladan
Men y ap di w "Ayiti pòv!"
Sa vle di, s'on bagay ki just leve konsa, li egziste
On jou nou te rich, boum!
San anyen rive, nou pòv
Se sa yo vle nou konprann
Se ide sa yo vle mete nan tèt nou
Pa gen anyen ki san plan
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
Outro (Elikya Ngoma)
Yo di l paske yo vle projeté yon imaj, yon ide de Ayiti e kısa Ayisyen ye
(Elikya Ngoma - music)
