Lyrics
African Dream
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lurking in the shadows through the wastelands
Escaping from the city through the highway
Watching the big lights til they fade away
Shattering the glass in the hot sand
Will you pray
Will you pray
Will you pray, will you pray
For our souls
Will you pray
Should we pay
Will you pray, will you pray
For us all
Smiling in the danger of a hurricane
Mocking all the risks, like a golden flame
As a run into the glory leads to crash it
On the slope beside the coast
It's a death train
Will you pray
Will you pray
Will you pray, will you pray
For our souls
Will you pray
Should we pay
Will you pray, will you pray
For us all
Going on safari armed with bare hands
Hungry for the danger that comes in waves
Brave as a fool, fearing nothing
Then the hunter turns to prey
It's an ambush
Lurking in the shadows through the wastelands
Escaping from the city through the highway
Watching the big lights til they fade away
Shattering the glass in the hot sand
Will you pray
Will you pray
Will you pray, will you pray
For our souls
Will you pray
Should we pay
Will you pray, will you pray
For us all
