lyrics

Intro
Ooh lay, ooh lay, Ooh lay, ooh lay,
Ooh lay, ooh lay, Ooh lay, Ooh lay
Ooh lay, Ooh lay, Ooh luh,
Ooh lay, Ooh luh

Ooh lay, ooh lay, Ooh lay, ooh lay,
Ooh lay, ooh lay, Ooh lay, Ooh lay
Ooh lay, Ooh lay, Ooh luh,
Ooh lay, Ooh luh



Chorus

Take me home
I want to be
in that place
Where my Mind is Free
Take me home out of Babylon
To that place where my heart
Belongs.

Verse 1.
——————————
I’ll chase your Sunrise
Dance under moonlight
On the desert of Sahara
On the banks of River Nile

I can hear you Calling Paradise
From a thousand Mile
Through the distant Seas
Over Hills, Valley
I’ll get to you somehow

December feels like July
People they Greet
With a Smile
That’s the African Way

I must return to my Tribe
Lioness to a Pride
Reconnect with my
Lineage

From Kingston to
Ghana, Accra bound

Seen Agege in Lagos
Reminds me of town Abi (isn’t it)

Seychelles Beach
Pan Retreat Mi a Lounge

Then It’s back to Gabon
For a weekend of Fun. Ayo. (Joy)


Chorus.
Take me home
I want to be
in that place
Where my Mind is Free
Take me home out of Babylon
To that place where my heart
Belongs.


Verse 2.
—————————
Africa for di Africans
Home and Abroad.
She awaits her Creators
With Arms Open wide and her
Hands Stretching Forth

To All of her Lost Children,
Carried beyond to the
West they were brought
Don’t Neglect the Call

A di Motherland
Mek wi Trod along
Seh weh wi haffi
Step it outta Babylon
One By One

Continent Over Island
Mi Say

Dem wah mi Forget
Yuh African ways

And go Follow adda
People lifestyle
While dem Claim


Yuh Birthright
And culture
In dem white God name


Would you take a look around
Some of the most
beautiful places on Earth
can be found

In Mali, Niger, Chad and
Cameroon

Media Only portray them As
Some War Zones.


Outro
——————————

Zion on Earth
Quenching my thirst
All when the well run dry
Fill my cup till it high
Zion in a Earth
Mama We haffi honor
Every crevice, every corner
Wi never short a
Wonder

Wah woii yeah
Wah woii yeah
wah wah wah yah
Wah woii yeah
Wah woii yeah
Akwaba Africa so nice yah
