Verse 5
Am Am 
 
Hey Yo! i've walked on the african
sands like the kosan
G G 
 
The original man from lands sacred
Dm Dm 
 
Battled zulu tribes for the passion of word
Am Am 
 
play and swam across
The zambezi butt naked
Seen the sun rise in the east
and set in the west
G G 
 
Plotted stars charts and directions
for god to manifest
Dm Dm 
 
From the peaks of pyramids i left
tags in dark caves
Am Am 
 
Gave humanity clues on
G G 
 
how to star gaze
Am Am 
 
I've seen a snake shed its skin like
F F 
 
G G 
 
the seasons and change
Am Am 
 
I've seen world rearrange in a flash
F F 
 
Now for this cash they rape
mother Africa for wealth
G G 
 
It's left me stranded in a spiritual
realm all by myself
Am Am 
 
Headed to mecca i stopped and spoke
G G 
 
swahili with tribes
Am Am 
 
Chanted native dialects over
the hill i felt vibes
F F 
 
Threw my hands in the sky
then beat them hard on a
G G 
 
Drum over the horizon i waited
for freedom to come
Am Am 
 
But the ships just keep sailing
G G 
 
and whips just keep cracking
Am Am 
 
I wonder where i am so i begin back
tracking through the
F F 
 
Solomonic dynasty i read the
G G 
 
kebra took mt swift
Across the mains like i was riding on
Am Am 
 
a zebra the ashante
G G 
 
Am Am 
 
Draped me in robes or royalty
the shona tribe blessed me
F F 
 
With lyrical ability its beauty
infinate and there's just no
G G 
 
Debating when i finally saw all along who's
Am Am 
 
been waiting
