I Feel African In Every Vein

I feel African in every vein the arteries pulsate with love this continent is so dear to me I feel African in every breath the challenges the world paints I see not but beautiful Africa All Africans here and far away join me to hold Africa together no piece should go to the winds The unity of the land of Africa the resources of the land of Africa are gifts no humans brought here Patriots of Africa come hold hands this land you owe loving service dust off yourselves to build Africa Old Africa where is your wisdom? come out of your boxes and unite the world is vibrant, lets wake up I feel African in every vein Africa my sweet-heart duty calls

This is just like God Bless America. Go back and look at the words. The surface may look great but it is underneath that counts the most. God, scenes, animals and weather and water and fields are always things to mention.

Wow! Solomon, what beautiful and heartfelt lyrics you have penned. I could imagine them set to music or a lovely chant. I can just sense the pride in each and every word. You had me at your title alone. Excellent job:-)Alexis

Wow! What an awesome and beautiful song. You poured you heart into this and it shows Solomon. A Fave and a 7. I wish I could hear it with the music, 'cause I feel like singing along:)
