African voices Let's not forget this place Let's not neglect the our race Let unity become Life on earth be one
So let me take your hand We are but grains of sand Born throught the winds of time Given a special sign
So let's take a stand And look around us now, people So let's take a stand And look around us now, people...
Eeyeah--oh, eayeh--oh, eayeh (and the world is turning)--oh,by--yah To a different beat Eayeh--oh, eayeh--oh, eayeh (and the world is turning)--oh, byyah (To a different beat)
Humanity's lost face Let's understand its grace Each day one at a time Each life including mine
So let's take a stand And look around us now, people oh, people oh people!
I've seen the rain, fall in africa I've touched to snow of alaska (Oh tell me now...) I've felt the mists of niagara Now I believe... In you..
How far we've come And how far to go Rain does not fall On one roof alone..(to a different beat)..
