lyrics

Souls of Africa

I am waiting for the souls of Africa
To break the chains in all the ways
we taught’em how

I am searching for the breeze of Africa
For I felt it and it’s way warmer than this one
I always find out, lots of reasons to complain
And as you do, I can’t say, I know pain

Here comes a man he’s got something special
Ivory Christ makes him look so special
I ask him how he can be that special
He says he’s waiting for the souls of Africa
Passes me by and then he turns theatrical
He says he’s waiting for the souls of Africa
To teach us how to never despair
To show us where all our money’s not

I am waiting for the souls of Africa
To embrace their weapons, smiles like arrows, to our hearts
To laugh at us their diseases just like darts
That’s why maybe,
I’m ashamed of all we haven’t done

I am waiting for the souls of Africa
To show the world in whose hands all the power is
It’s in the wrong hands, in the wrong hands, in too strong hands
As it is for the mock help the West gives them
