Ancestor Fela Kuti


Eshu, do not undo me,
Do not falsify the words of my mouth
Do not misguide the movements of my feet.
You who translate yesterday's words
Into novel utterances, Do not undo me

"It is a known fact that for many thousand years We Africans,

we had our own traditions

These money making organizations

Them come put we Africans in total confusion"

May the ancestors be pleased with his efforts

WE POUR LIBATIONS
