Jackson Hoffman - African Heart lyrics

African Heart I was born in the land of lions And I recall their lost, colourless eyes When I talked of a life not yet mine... I'm still wide eyed still bright-bright I stepped into a ring of fire I'm brave to fight with no one by my side They're hiding and I'm seeking Cause I want what I want I remember thinking Don't let them steal your spark Qhubekeka Igubu Africa (Get lost in my pure African Heart) Don't let the US steal star Ungaliqhawe ngexesha (You'll be a hero in time) I'm a black gold animal Life's a cool carved carnival There's a new world out my window It's magical, Hypnotical There's a bitter cold on Bleecker street New York buildings and I'm down deep All eyes on The African Bee Hou jou Geloof (keep your belief) From East to East and Don't let them steal your spark Qhubekeka Igubu Africa (Get lost in my pure African Heart) Don't let the US steal star Ungaliqhawe ngexesha (You'll be a hero in time) I came from far far Plane ticket and a guitar Drink drink my Elixir Guard guard that African Heart Don't let them steal your spark Qhubekeka Igubu Africa (Get lost in my pure African Heart) Don't let the US steal star Ungaliqhawe ngexesha (You'll be a hero in time) I came from far far Innocence, no money, just a picture The sun came shining through the cracks of my heart You know you know you've got to guard guard That African Heart- Heart
