TracyLee Eckstein - Africa

The rhythm, the beat,
The love, the hate,
The cold, the heat,
The destiny, the fate

The country
wealthy
with poverty
The time
to change this cycle - The crime

The joy
In which the people employ.
The nation
with sickness, lack of education.

The death, the birth,
The richness of our wonderful earth.

Africa,
Full of culture,
The people love her.
