Manu WorldStar - Young African Story Lyrics

This is my African story
Had to start this right, its mandatory
I did sacrifice for my story
Had to pay the price for my glory
Shingy Shingy gotta let em know
Came a long way from the rodeo
Look up to the sky, nzambe na bomoyi
Had to change my life, had to keep it going
Young black Windsor man
Young black yes I can
Young black African
Gotta stack it up, make the dividends
I ain't ask for much, I'm a simple man
It was hard times in Berea, made it easier when you walked in with that Sega
It's like you've always known your baby boy would be a playa, remember what I told you in Dezemba (oh yeah)

I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Chankura ra kena, it's easy
I mean it, you better believe it
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming

Yeah I had a dream
2017 I would make it on the scene
But I came up on the screen and I made a fool of me
And I dusted off my feet like a motherfuckin' G
Jesus take the wheel
I'm pleading you know how I feel
Yeah
Young black citizen
Young black immigrant
Young black killing it
Focus on the vision know what time it is
I'm tryna lead my Mama to retirement
This one for you, you struggling to get a scholarship
This one for you, you on the corner selling oranges
This one for you, you say trying to find a better way
Pray the Lord will shine a light upon you
It's a brighter day

I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Chankura ra kena, it's easy
I mean it, you better believe it
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming

Yeah (dreaming)
We out baby, yeah (dreaming)
Man we finally did this one huh
(Dreaming)
It's been a long time coming
(Dreaming)
Dont let anybody tell you nothing

Young black Windsor man
Young black yes I can
Young black African
Gotta stack it up, make the dividends
I ain't ask for much, I'm a simple man
It was hard times in Berea, made it easier when you walked in with that Sega
It's like you've always known your baby boy would be a playa, remember what I told you in Dezemba (oh yeah)
