    Ode to Debtera (My Djembe)

     BOOM BAP
    BOOM BAP
    BOOM BOOM BOOM  BAP

    Hand slap Debtera tone
    Bass responds right back

    BOOM BAP
    BOOM BAP
    (PAUSE)
    BOOM BOOM BOOM BAP

    Ghana Mama
    Sun tightened hide
    Retains a culture

    BOOM BAP
    BOOM BAP
    (PAUSE)
    BOOM BOOM BOOM  BAP

    Melanin
    Rebelin in
    A time for Rebelin in

    BOOM BAP
    BOOM BAP
    BOOM BOOM BOOM BAP

    Life Beat
    Sounds sweet
    With the tempo increase

    BOOM BAP BAP BA BAP
    BOOM BAP BAP
    BOOM BAP BAP BA BAP
    BOOM BAP BAP

    Fire flames dance
    With the sistren and Bredrin
    Hands to the heavens
    Feet Beat to the core

    BOOM BAP BAP BA BAP
    BOOM BAP BAP

    Ocean sounds
    roar upon the shore
    calling us home

    BOOM BAP BAP BA BAP
    BOOM BAP BOOM BAP

    The babies
    The babies
    The legacy is left
    Hidden in the rhythm
    Retracing forgotten steps

    BOOM BAP BAP BA BAP
    BOOM BAP BAP
    BOOM BAP BAP BA BAP
    BOOM BAP BAP

    BAP BA BAP BAP
    BA BAP BAP BAP
    BOOM....
