You know
I never realized
That a world so incredibly far away

As Africa
Could be so close to me.


Look where we are right now
On this beautiful little piece of grass
Suffocated by a sea of cement

Oppressed by all the traffic
Look at the people
Running, shouting

Like they have all gone mad.
You know
I think

I just might go back to Africa.

You can joke

But you can never compare
This noisy artificial world
With the natural

Sounds of Africa.

A time strange, mysterious

Weird almost unreal
Looking to the sky
And raising your arms

You can almost caress it
And you feel inside
To the will to live

Your skin burned,
And you feel a man
More man

More sincere.
You know
I think I might

just go back to Africa
