African Heart - Binx

I was born in the land of lions

And I recall their lost, colourless eyes

When I talked of a life not yet mine…

I’m still wide eyed still bright-bright

I stepped into a ring of fire

I’m brave to fight with no one by my side

They’re hiding and I’m seeking

Cause I want what I want

I remember thinking

Don’t let them steal your spark

Qhubekeka Igubu Africa

(Get lost in my pure African Heart)

Don’t let the US steal star

Ungaliqhawe ngexesha

(You'll be a hero in time)

I’m a black gold animal

Life’s a cool carved carnival

There’s a new world out my window

It’s magical, Hypnotical

There’s a bitter cold on Bleecker street

New York buildings and I’m down deep

All eyes on The African Bee

Hou jou Geloof (keep your belief)

From East to East and

Don’t let them steal your spark

Qhubekeka Igubu Africa

(Get lost in my pure African Heart)

Don’t let the US steal star

Ungaliqhawe ngexesha

(You'll be a hero in time)

I came from far far

Plane ticket and a guitar

Drink drink my Elixir

Guard guard that African Heart

Don’t let them steal your spark

Qhubekeka Igubu Africa

(Get lost in my pure African Heart)

Don’t let the US steal star

Ungaliqhawe ngexesha

(You'll be a hero in time)

I came from far far

Innocence, no money, just a picture

The sun came shining through the cracks of my heart

You know you know you’ve got to guard guard

That African Heart- Heart
