Midnite - Mama Africa

Africa I belong I belong I belong
Africa I belong I belong
Africa I belong I belong

Ey ey Africa I belong I belong I belong
Africa I belong I belong
Africa I belong I belong

Oh Africa
And still I call you mama
May you neva be ruled
Controlled by no Yankee dollar
Oh Africa and still I call you mama
With love as my tool
Still I and I must prosper
Oh Africa and still I call you mama
From one of your sons abroad
How I wish I could be back on Bassa corner
Mama mama mama mama

I keep wishing I could capture, love in a bottle and blow it all around
I keep wishing I could capture, justice in America and fling it all around
Dling ding dang whey
Justice dun sell out to the highest trigger finger awhoa
Sling ding dang whey
When deh you them a call nigger
Stop pull trigger on one another
Mama mama

Them bougwa black man
Them a sit down pon the truth
And by your silence you agree
You think say that the dollar is the sample
And the example of Jah
You fil your rule with superiority
Spling ding dang whey
Justice dun sell out to the highest trigger finger a whoa
Sling ding dang whey ee
When deh you them a call nigger
Stop pull trigger a pon another
Mama mama

Africa I belong I belong I belong

Africa I belong I belong I belong
Africa I belong I belong

Mama dont cry daddy gone a penitentiary ey ey hey
I man will find a way
We know we know set things nah go easy
So when I man flash it ina foreign with our four string guitar and our empty belly
Man is true ganja hustling
Man put roof and bed under mommy
When we did run it pon the loco line full time
Although we musically inclined I find
I keep seeing hard time
Will neva respect nobody
I was going under in
I man start over seen
One more chance, one more try
Thru Im not ready for the sweet by and by
I man start ova, glad to be alive
Mama mama mama

Oh Africa and still I call you mama
May you neva be ruled
Controlled by no Yankee dollar
Oh Africa and still I call you mama
May prosperity rule hey hey

Africa I belong, I belong, I belong
Africa I belong, I belong, I belong
Africa I belong, I belong, I belong
