Papa Winnie - African Boy Lyrics

I so I wanna be somebody /

Ah ! I left my home so far away /

In a search for something new /

Ah ! The rugged road I walk it seems l Seems to have no end /

Ah ! Even though I try so hard/

They're still trying to keep me down /

Ah! Sufferation is all I see /

And it's all that I know /

So put your hand in mine, African brother/

There ain't no mountain we cannot climb, I so I.../

Now that I know I feel it in my soul /

African boy- Oh this solid rock I stand/

African boy-Trying to be somebody /

African boy - I 'm black and I 'm proud /

African boy - I 'm a third world man /

Ah ! We're different colors but we're one /

Don't you understand /

I can smell the future in the air /

It s blowing everywhere /

Darkness instead of light /

Nothing seems to be right /

So put your hand in mine, African brother/

There ain't no mountain we cannot climb, I so I.../

Now that I know I feel it in my soul /

Some people talk about black /

Some people talk about white /

But the only color I know /

Is sweet sweet love /

I share it with my mother /

And I share it with my sisters /

I share it with my father /

And I share it with my friends /

See, you can't judge a man by the color of his skin /

Nor you can judge a book by the color of its cover/

Black me black and that s the natural fact /

Black me black and me no look back /

African boy...
