[Damian Marley]
Well greetings to all the brothers and sisters once again ah huh
Voice of the one big Gong Zilla along side the one called Metaphysics, ah woo
Yes off course of course
[Meta & The Cornerstones]
From the day that the beat drop, we’ve been there
From the day that the tic toc, bounced my head
So close to Jah boom box, rhymes for change
Hope is all I have, natty rise again
Dusty foot democracy, a long walk for equality
We nah go shoot no enemy, join the bridges, positive society
My beloved Africa you’re my nice one
My beloved Africa you’re my nice one
Heavy hearted set in stone like the buildings and streets of our home
Sometimes I look back where all my good people at?
[Damian Marley]
Hear me now
Yo dem visit ina dem vision and dem live in a dem dreams
The elders reminiscing upon shores they have never been
Africans in Africa please don’t forget about the past
Somebody thief your cow why would you not reclaim the calf?
And tell me which shepard is counting every blade of grass
Who wouldn’t save dem own ah child no care how much it cost
Who wouldn’t want to find our beloved where did lost
Mama Africa you are my nice one
Those sneaky Babylonians with their plots and schemes
Coulda ah never get we no care wah things seems
We dun spot them out on dem criminal themes
We dun spot them out on dem mineral themes say
My beloved Africa you’re my nice one
My beloved Africa you’re my nice one
Heavy hearted set in stone like the buildings and streets of our home
Sometimes I look back where all my good people at?
[Meta & The Cornerstones]
Ohhh ohhh ohhh, mi say Africa (yes off course Africa yeah)
Ohhh ohhh ohhh, you’re my Africa (mines too)
Hear you calling for change (oh beloved art thou oh Mama Africa we love you)
Hear who calling for repatriation (reaching out to all the Africans at home and abroad)
Citrus in my sweets taste of Heaven (love is large)
Its your dream its your dream say you have to know that
Dem ah tricky silly will satta money dem about
Meta D Jah Jah live where my Natty soldiers
Mi say Chale ah go free, Africa is about time
[Damian Marley]
Beautiful smiling faces
The culture
The heritage
The history
The love
The ancestry
My beloved Africa you’re my nice one
My beloved Africa you’re my nice one
Heavy hearted set in stone like the buildings and streets of our home
Sometimes I look back where all my good people at?
[Damian Marley]
When I think about my land (somi chima wouro amen)
When I think about where I’m from (somi chima lady amen)
I’m very proud (somi chima wouro amen)
Its all love
[Meta & The Cornerstones]
Our Africa
