Speaking:
To Africa & 126 let?s go
I come here a lot more, I?m grateful, for my freedom
Not only freedom, physically, but freedom of the mind
Freedom of my spirit, in Jesus? name, Amen
Don?t leave me out cos I?m black
Don?t leave me out cos I?m white
Leave me cos I?m treating you wrong and I?m supposed 2 treat you right (ohh)
Don?t leave me out in the cold or treat me like I?m a 12 years old
Visitor, I?m from Africa and I can stand where ever I want (ohh)
I can see it so clearly, soon as I stare in your eyes
Yeah you?re making more money than me, that don?t me I?m not qualified
I wake up every morning, smile on my face
Thanking the lord for giving me another opportunity to feed my family
First I try to come up, then you hold me down
First u let me in, then you kick me out
Can somebody tell me, what is a man to do?
Everyday I day I pray, to the man above
If u stop the hate and show me sum love
Turn to chapter 126
All she wanted for us was?
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, oh freedom (Don?t want to)
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, oh freedom (Mentally and spiritually)
Speaking:
We thank men all over and everyone who?s contributed to the freedom of Africa
Without you, where will we be? Come on?
Soon as you?re try to say no, I?m coming right back 2 say yes
You?re giving me fuel to my fire another reason to pump my fist (ohh)
You make so much money off us, in return you don?t show us no love
With movies like ??? they won?t be kids in all the streets
I wake up every morning, smile on ma face
Thanking the lord for giving me another opportunity to feed my family (first I)
First I try to come up, then you hold me down
First u let me in, then you kick me out
Can somebody tell me, what is a man to do?
Everyday I day I pray, to the man above
If u stop the hate and show me sum love
Turn to chapter 126
Cos all she ever wanted for us was?
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, oh freedom (Don?t want to?)
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, oh freedom (Mentally and spiritually)
Hold your heads up high, all the way to the sky
If you wanna be free, sing along with me
South Africa, Namibia, Kenya, Ethiopia, Ghana, Zambia,
Feel your pain, feel your pain
Pyramids of Egypt, show some love, that?s the way to live (Freedom)
Hold your head up cos Apartheid is over, yes it is
We can go where we want to go now
Free to go where I wanna go
Free to say what I wanna say
Free to have what I wanna have, I want, I want
Free to live where I wanna live
Free to give what I wanna give
Free to go where I wanna go, I want, I want
Free to have a baby boy
Free to have a baby girl
Free to raise a family
Free to travel the world
