You’d have never known these things
You’d have never loved if you never got hurt
You’d have never came this far Africa
You’d have never gained if you never lost some
With pain and struggle you gave birth
To a better you … to a better you!
Chorus:
Our story is the same, no fighting
Our melody is the same, we’re united
Sad rhythms of struggle lingers on
But it’s time we let go now
Africa let go!
Time we let go now
Africa let go
Of the bitterness
You’d have never paid your dues
You’d have never known your strength
You’d have never known God’s love and mercy
You’d have never grown in leaps and bounds
You pushed and you fought and you gave birth
To a better you … to a better you!
Chorus:
Our story is the same, no fighting
Our melody is the same, we’re united
Sad rhythms of struggle lingers on
But it’s time we let go now
Africa let go!
Time we let go now
Africa let go
Of the bitterness
We’re picking up the pieces
In the south and the west
In the north and the east
Pain is rife everywhere you go
In the south and the west
In the north and the east
Time we let go now
Africa let go
Of the bitterness
Chorus
