I Am Africa

I am Africa
I am Africa
With the strength of the cheetah
My native voice will ring

We are Africa!
We are the heartbeat of Africa!

With the rhino

The meerkat

The noble lion king

We are Africa!

We are the winds of the Serengeti
We are the sweat of the jungle man
We are the tears of Nelson Mandela
We are the lost boys of the Sudan

I am Africa!
Just like Bono! I am Africa!
I flew in here, and became one with
This land!

Ha na heya! Za ba neyba!

I'm not a follower anymore
No, now I'm frickin Africa!
With my Zulu spear
I run barefoot through the sand!
I am Africa!

Ha na heya za ba ney

We are Africa
We are the, the only Africa
(The one and only Africa)
And the life we live is primitive
And proud!

(Let us smile and laughrica!)

We are Africa!
We are the deepest, darkest Africa!
(So deep and dark Africa)
We are the fields and fertile forests
Well endowed!
We are Africa!

We are the sunrise on the Savannah

A monkey with a banana

A tribal woman who doesn't wear a bra

Ah
Africans are African
But we are Africa!
