Africa |
| Africa is my descent |
| And here I am far from home |
| I dwell within a land that is meant |
| For many men not my tone |
| The blood of god is my defense |
| Let it drop down to my seed |
| Showers to your innocence |
| To protect u for all eternity |
| And with this wood I beat this drum |
| And we won’t see defeat |
| From kings to queens becomes a prince |
| Knowledge wisdom is |
| Understanding what we need |
| Ever since the day u came |
| My whole world began to change |
| I knew then to dedicate my life |
| 4 your own |
| Everyday I see u grow |
| And remember what u already know |
| I receive the love |
| That radiates from your glow |
| From which u came was love |
| And that’s how it all should be |
| U and my soul are I |
| Though all the time and history |
