Men sa le monde antye tap tann
Wyclef ki sot nan Fugee.
Jeremi! Ayiti! Potoprins! Flatbush!
Sou'w fyè desko'w se ayisyen mache
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora (4 fwa)
Depwi mwen piti mwen te kite Ayiti
Gen sa ki al Brooklyn gen sa ki al Miami
Poukisa Jamariken toujou di se Jamariken?
Men ayisyen pè di li se ayisyen
Poukisa ou pè di non'w se Samyèl?
Poukisa ou pé di'w ave'k Izrayèl?
Poukisa chak swa wap domi ak Jezabèl?
Ou pè di fanm ayisyen ke yo bèl?
Pa'm nan bèl
Mwen respekte non'w tankou mwen
respekte zanj Gabriyèl
Men nèg dyaspora vle Mennen nou nan otèl
Tonben pale anglè vire "playboy channel"
Yo pa respekte Izrayèl
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora li ye mape voye' l bay reken
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora li ye aswè a nap dezame'l
Dyaspora ha ha o le men
Mape pran li jete'l nan prizon
Map fè'l konnen kiyès ki Tousen
Map fè'l konnen kiyès ki Desalin
Aprè sa nou mèt lage'l voye'l back Brooklyn
Pou la'l jwenn manman'n kap fe manje nan kwizin
Mannan'n gade li di gason ou chanje
Li di mwen chanje paske se ayisyen mwen ye
Yo te ban mwen yon leson, yo te mete'm nan prison
Mwen wè dyaspora fi, dyaspora gason
Gen sa ki pap tounen yape domi a pwason
Yo pedi konesans kankou yo fèt san relijyon
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora ou ye mape voye'w bay reken
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora ou ye aswè a nap dezame'w
Nèg Potoprins pa respekte dyspora Ankò
Nèg Flatbush pa respekte dyspora
Nèg Canada pa respekte dyspora
Nèg Miami pa respekte dyaspora
Depwi mwen piti mwen te kite ayiti
Gen sa ki al Brooklyn gen sa ki al Miami
Poukisa jamariken toujou di se jamariken?
Men ayisyen pè di li se ayisyen
Poukisa ou pè di non'w se Samyèl?
Poukisa ou pè di'w ave'k Israyèl?
Poukisa chak swa wap domi ak Jezabèl?
Ou pè di fanm ayisyen ke yo bèl?
Pa'm nan bèl
Mwen respekete nou tankou mwen
respekte zanj gabriyèl
Men nèg dyaspora vle Mennen noun nan otèl
Tonben pale angle vire "playboy channel"
Yo pa respekte Izrayèl
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora ou ye mape voyo'w bay reken
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora ou ye aswè a nap dezame'w
Pa Kayos pa respekte dyaspora
Papa Djoume pa respekte dyaspora
Refugees pa respekte dyaspora
Nèg Florida pa respekte dyaspora
Malfini bagay yo pral fini mal,
sou'w derespekte natif natal
Malfini bagay yo pral fini mal
Derespekte ayisyen ou pral kout fistibal
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora ou ye mape voyo'w bay reken
Dyaspora n'pa respekte dyaspora
Si se dyaspora ou ye aswè a nap dezame'w
