[Verse 1: ZIIMUSIC]
I'm a man from the motherland
Came far buti'lldie in the motherland
Cry for the motherland
PaPa
They Lie bout the motherland
Streets paved with dirt
But the lands for the people
Huh
The people
Hearts plated gold
But the rich get richer
The happy get sicker
While theylivinon a dollar
Welivinon twitter!
Ain'tit funny
Its all about money
From a baby being born
To a son being buried
We all equal
Without the one hundreds
Currency forming policy
The culture now tarnished
Where did it all go
People we could follow
Jesus was a Jew but his life is one we all know
Malcom X
Died for a cause
But the free live in chains by watching lose morals
[Chorus: ZIIMUSIC]
My AfricaAfricaburning down
NakuwonaMotoMotoNakuwonaMoto
But if you can somehow turn all of this mess around
Vanavanoimbaimbavanavanoimba
No moreohhhhohhhohhhohohhh
Mama Africa
Mama Africa
I loveya
I loveya
[Verse 2: ZIIMUSIC]
Itskindacrazy
Vision somazey
Dreaming bout a place where loveain'ta maybe
Kissed by the Africa sun
This life made me
Stolen by the concrete jungle
And they say we struggle
From Cape to Cairo
The place thatiknow
Is filled with a pa**ion for people
Rich with ethnicity
Pain so vividly
Neighbour came by and made it his ministry
Yours is the simple life
Them gun shots took another life
Media taints me
Violence pains me
Neighbour came by and greed made them slay me
Nowifight back to take care of my baby
Babylon Fire
Jah
Take me Hire
Fools gold crazy
Currency
Slavery
[Chorus: ZIIMUSIC]
My AfricaAfricaburning down

But if you can somehow turn all of this mess around
Vanavanoimbaimbavanavanoimba
No moreohhhhohhhohhhohohhh
Mama Africa
Mama Africa
I loveya
I loveya
