Jah over guide me thrue times when I know not what I do Jah over guide me so that I may seek the truth Jah know I don’t fear no man no daemon For my heart is true, Africa is calling! Jah over guide me home to you.
I’m going back and on, back to Africa …check my vernacular My blood make me proud, I wear my colors loud No hard to move a crowd, cause I’m from Africa! I’m going to the slums, wake up everyone This… Englishmans only just begun This one is for Babilon, boy, you better run When the revolution come and bringing tons of guns
Chorus: My momma told me she want me come home I’m going back to Africa! I’m on my way now, a way way too long! Going back to Africa She need all her children, she walk past forward Gotta go, gotta go, a man’s doing… Next come, I’m going back to Africa!
My destiny is written in the stars, so listen! ..hold me down, I’m on a mission To resurrect the way we both start tradition Superficial system repressing… I’m my system. I met a holy man, he told me holy things Of the holy land, Africa, the land of kings!
Now I’m going back, fulfill my destiny Mother land, this is rebel ship, can you hear me?
Chorus: My momma told me she want me come home I’m going back to Africa! I’m on my way now, a way too long! Going back to Africa She need all her children, she walk past forward Gotta go, gotta go, a man’s doing… Next come, I’m going back to Africa!
Step off the plane, dusty on my feet Feel my neck back soaking up the heat. My heart beat, it’s beating like a drum I look conceding son? This is Africa!
I hear all the voices calling me! I can see the stars ..shining … I’m on my way home! Africa!
Chorus: My momma told me she want me go home I’m going back to Africa! I’m on my way now, a way way too long! Going back to Africa She need all her children, she walk past forward Gotta go, gotta go, a man’s doing… Next come, I’m going back to Africa! Gotta chase ‘em on Gotta chase ‘em on Chase them on to Africa! Momma got to be free She got to be free.
