Somewhere in Africa
Meta and the Cornerstones Lyrics

Somewhere, somewhere in Africa dread
There is unrest somewhere in Africa.

There is a tribal fight
Tribal conflicts are causing violence and destruction.

Gotta stop this war, fire-fear dread
The fighting must be stopped to prevent further devastation.

People you all know money is the roots of all evil
Money can be the cause of many evils.

And modesty got no price or level dread
Humility cannot be bought or earned through status.

Being what you are is not terrible dread
It is not bad to be true to oneself.

Just be a man don’t be a devil
Be a good person, not wicked or evil.

This world can make it good I say
The world can be good if we work towards it.

Open your eyes and don’t be blind
Stay aware and informed of what's happening around you.

Cause enemies come from behind
Enemies can come from unexpected places.

Keep the faith as the sunshine
Stay positive and hopeful like the sun shining.

Jah fire will be burning and no wicked man will be running safe
Justice will be served, and wicked people will not escape consequences.

This is a true verse coming from a true artist well
These are sincere words from an authentic artist.

My word is my blood
My words come from the depth of my soul.

My mind stays focused
I stay mentally determined and focused on my goals.

My vision is the world
My goal is to positively impact the world through my art.

My voice never be cold
My voice is always filled with passion.

Knowledge wisdom for the young boys and girls
I aim to share knowledge and wisdom with younger generations.

Conscious Righteous maximum I can hold
I strive towards being morally conscious and righteous.

For you to grow up my bro well
I hope for others to grow and succeed in life.

Peace, Love and Harmony X4
I advocate for peace, love, and harmony.

Africa we are calling unity
We need to come together as a united Africa.

We don’t want no more violence ina deh community
We do not want any more violence in our community.

I have tell murder is not necessary
I have to speak out that murder is unnecessary.

The enemies of Africans are the Africans
The biggest opposition to Africans can often come from within.

Go ahead Its time to stand up
It is time to take action and make a change.

Stand up brother man can't you see well!
It's time for men to stand up and make a difference.

Stand up sister's can’t you see well
It's time for women to stand up and make a difference.

Life oh life is an open book
Life is a journey with endless possibilities.

Everyone run and take a look
Take a closer look at the world around you.

Experience is the greatest teacher so far
Experience is the best way to learn and grow.

Independence got to forward Africa rise I say
Africa needs to strive for independence and progress.
