Africa - D'Angelo

Africa is my descent

And here I am far from home

I dwell within a land that’s meant

Meant for many men not my tone

The blood of God is my defence

Let it drip 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 and queens becomes a prince

Knowledge and wisdom is understanding what we need

And this game of love

Ever since the day you came

My whole world began to change

I knew then to dedicate my life

For your own

And this game of love

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 one

Through all the time and history

And I thank you, thank you
