Africa Lyrics


Africa is my descent
And here I am far from home
I dwell within a land that is meant
For many men not my tone, yeah
The blood of God is my defense
Let it drop down to my seed
Showers to your innocence
To protect you for all eternity
And with this wood I beat this drum
And we won't see defeat
From kings to queens
Becomes a prince
Knowledge and wisdom
Is understanding what we need
(And this day will come)
Ever since the day you came
My whole world began to change
I knew then to dedicate my life

For your own
(And this day will come)
Everyday I see you grow
And remember what you already know
I receive, I receive the love
That radiates from your glow
From which you came was love
And that's how it all should be
You and my soul are I
Through all the time and history, yeah
(And past)
Thank you, thank you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Exuma, born Macfarlane Gregory Anthony Mackey (February 18, 1942; Cat Island, Bahamas – January 25, 1997; Nassau, Bahamas) was known for his almost unclassifiable music. He recorded many albums, starting with Exuma: The Obeah Man in 1970 and ending with Rude Boy in 1986. His songs invoke influences from calypso, junkanoo, reggae, African and folk music with his lyrics dealing heavily with Obeah, a sorcerous Caribbean folk religion resembling African voudou.
