Thinking I would drown but I'm a good swimmer, ooh

When the river didn't drown me, they throwed me in the fire

But the fire just cooled, I could never burn, ooh

Cause I'm a believer, I'm a believer

I'm a believer, I'm a believer

River, everybody!

Freetown is my family

(My family)

Whole caribbean follow we

(Follow we)

Evergreen like the forest be

Terrible they can't manage me

Afrika no apology

When they couldn't hold me, they throwed me in the river

Thinking I would drown but I'm a good swimmer, ooh

They say we enter the battle then we dance when we conquer

It's been forever, it won't need much longer

Stand firm, you will be much stronger, ooh

I'm a believer, I'm a believer

I'm a believer, I'm a believer

Freetown is my family

Rough sea never bother me

Whole carribbean follow we

Root deeper than a forestry

Evergreen like the forest be

Terrible they can't manage me

Afrika no apology

Hold up, pull up

Never fall down yet, don't digress

Put us against any test, yea, no stress
