karma - southern skies lyrics
[verse 1]
i am of africa
her child
born in a city that man made wild
long after the gold was gone
and all of the wars that no one won
i’m born into anger now i know
only a country filled with hope
i am of africa
her child
born wild
out of the ocean she rose
with mother’s hands she’s made this home
struggles through time and sp-ce
i see, how all the colours change in me
i’m born into sadness now i know
only the weak will lose their hope
if i am of africa
her child
then i too must be wild
[chorus]
the southern side of africa’s
the place that i would take you to
when seeing is believing in your dreams
my motherland, arms open wide
a heart so big, you’re found inside
she’s everything you need to just feel free
beneath, these your southern skies
at peace, beneath, i am of africa
[verse 2]
i am of africa
her child
born in a city that man made wild
sand in a bottle filled with tears
brings all my childhood memories near
i’m born into anger, now i know
only the strong sustain their hope
if i am of africa
her child
then i too must be wild
[chorus x2]
the southern side of africa’s
the place that i would take you to
when seeing is believing in your dreams
my motherland, arms open wide
a heart so big, you’re found inside
she’s everything you need to just feel free
beneath, these your southern skies
at peace, beneath, i am of africa
