I'm sorry Africa
I was too young to understand
I'm sorry Africa
Your message written in the sand

I'm sorry Africa
I couldn't make a stand
I'm sorry Africa
Still things get out of hand
I'm sorry Africa
I was too blind to see
That you're a part of me

I'm sorry Africa
This isolation's done me good
I'm sorry Africa
It's time to talk I know I should

I'm sorry Africa
I couldn't make a stand
I'm sorry Africa
Still things get out of hand
I'm sorry Africa
I was too blind to see
That you're a part of me

There's a mission to fulfill I know
And I've done nothing yet, you know I'm slow
There's a mission to fulfill
And I've done nothing so far, but sure I will

Nikuki nikuki ayo marira yose
(why, why all those tears)
I'm sorry Africa
Nikuki nikuki ayo marira yose
(why, why all thos tears)
I'm on my way lord
I'm on my way now
