Africa you raise me up but I won't be coming back Africa I love you but I cannot take it anymore Motherland I'm begging you please stop the corruption Your children are crying calling for a change Hometown your beauty is beyond beautiful Kumusha kumusha kumusha chimurenga Nhai Baba wo where are the diamonds your children found Your children are dying calling for a change I'm running around in a foreign land The locals are laughing Pointing at me saying Go back where you come from in Africa I'm now living in a foreign land They are taunting me saying Go back where you come from in Africa Africa Africa Africa Africa yeah In a free world another vote means another murder Another mother will loose a child Come on people what's up with the killings I wish I could come back home to peace I'm running around in a foreign land The locals are laughing Pointing at me saying Go back where you come from in Africa I'm now living in a foreign land They are taunting me saying Go back where you come from in Africa Africa Africa Africa Africa yeah It's clear to see that my heart still beats for Africa It's obvious that I would love to come back someday I miss the sun, rivers, trees and the mountains I miss the people of Africa I'm running around in a foreign land The locals are laughing Pointing at me saying Go back where you come from in Africa I'm now living in a foreign land They are taunting me saying Go back where you come from in Africa Africa Africa Africa Africa yeah
