ln the past, no one questioned to you
ln the past, no one questioned to me
ln the past, that‘s how it used to be
ln the past, whatever happened
ln the past, no one wanted to know
People who had suggestions to make
People who could think for themselves
People who were hungry
ln the past whatever happened
ln the past, you could not speak about it
Today, you are supposed to take part
Today, I’m supposed to take part
Today, we are all supposed to take part
Today, whatever‘s happening
We’re all asked to take part
Today, people want to know
In the past, people did not want to know
Salif Keïta (born 1949) Mali
