oh lord
ohhh
one nation can be doing the work while another gainning the glory
and how long will builders and architects of africa build for another
i know the west will crumble one day (i know)
so jah say so i an i nuh stay (i know)
iyah yaad away home to the mother land that's where i belong yes!
iyah yaad away home
africa for africans
iyah yaad away home
europe for europeans
iyah yaad away home
asia for the asians
iyah yaad away home
america for the many yes
down in the west its no place to stay
its just bills bills bills everyday
and no matter how the people pray micheal angelo won't come there way
they use political strategy just to keep us in poverty
from john marcus gave i vision
then i kno enough this place is not for me
iyah yaad away home
Pakistan is for pakistan
iyah yaad away home
india for indian
iyah yaad away home
china for chinese
iyah yaad away home
?
don't be like them careless ethopians
who get caught inna babylon medium
sold out just for them high positions
don't be like them careless ethopians
who get caught inna babylon medium
who sell out just for them high positions
i nah stay dung here nuh more
gotta to go back home
nah go stay dung here
gottah go back to home
iyah yaad away home
africa for african
iyah yaad away home
rome is for the romans
iyah yaad away home
italy for italians
iyah yaad away home
ooohhhh ooohhhh ooohhhh
sing again
one nation can be doing the work while another gainning the glory
and how long will builders and architects of africa build for another
i know the west will crumble one day (i know)
so jah say so i an i nuh stay (i know)
iyah yaad away homeeeeeeeeeeeeeee......
yes!
iyah yaad away home
africa is for african
iyah yaad away home
asia for the asian
iyah yaad away home...
