So listen now listen to the children voices and listen now listen to the nation calling
Do you remember when they came to our land with their ships and their bombs and their guns and the plagues and their chains and their cages
Cos we don’t need to war just to show we are stronger but we just need to love each other better
Simbi yaweh simbi yahnah Simbi yaweh Mama Africa
Simbi yaweh simbi yahnah Simbi yaweh Mama Africa

I will show you the way because when it’s getting dark
I will be the light you see

I don’t why it’s so difficult falling in love with you again
Joy
I smile sometimes just to make you feel good all the time

Smokes arisen but I’m never afraid of the fire
I told you I am not good enough but you couldn’t keep the secret Gbese
You couldn’t wait for a chance just to see the change you need

Hey mama I try to make her understand me but it was so hard to know that
I don’t why I cannot live without you now

Non Siamo Pesci
03:30
|

Cammineremo su strade che non conosciamo
Ho visto mio fratello che ha lasciato la casa che non rivedrà più Quando sorride la gente pensa che tutto vada bene
Ma non va benissimo, ma non va benissimo
Vedo le case della gente diventare strada
perché l’odio e l’invidia disegnano la guerra
Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Non siamo pesci, ma siamo umani Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Non siamo pesci ma siamo umani
La la la la la la la la la la
la la la
La la la la la la la la la la
la la la
Quel giorno era uscito di casa Sperava di tornare presto
a volte la vita non può essere prevista Ho sentito un gemito nell’oscurità Tutto quello che ho visto era un bambino In fondo al mare
costretto a vivere da pesce
Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Non siamo pesci, ma siamo umani Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Woo Non siamo pesci, ma siamo umani
Woo Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Non siamo pesci, ma siamo umani Woo Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Non siamo pesci, siamo umani
Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Non siamo pesci, ma siamo umani Non siamo pesci, dentro il mare Woo Non siamo pesci, ma siamo umani
