African Dream Blu & Exile (Ft. Aloe Blacc & Gappy Ranks)

[Intro: Aloe Blacc]
Oh

[Chorus: Gappy Ranks]
Hmm, ayy, ayy, hmm
I'm going home when my time come
Same place weh di River Nile run
Green grass, blue skies and sun
Heart a beat like an African drum

[Verse 1: Blu & Aloe Blacc]
Ayo, I'm African, although I was born in Los Angeles
I gotta get a tat to represent where my family is
Black skin, black bones, black man
From the black planet, black sand, black lamb (Oh)
Back then I woulda been on a ship, eating fish
Takin' weekend trips in the sea to see if I could meet the French
Speaking tongues over drums, dancing and singing songs
You could see the long arm of the brothers we call
Our kin, African, I'm back again
Like I never left, never did, heaven is
Africa, I have to show my kids just how old the culture is
From California, but I wanna live in Africa

[Refrain: Aloe Blacc]
Oh, Africa, oh, Africa
Oh, Africa, my motherland, oh
