Young African Story Lyrics by Manu Worldstar

Young African Story - EP

2019

[Verse 1]
This is my African story
Had  to start this right, it's mandatory
I  done sacrificed 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 Afri-can
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 Dezamba ('08)
[Hook]
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
[Verse 2]
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
Je-e-e-e-sus, ta-a-a-ke the wheel
I'm ple-e-e-eading, you know how I feel
Young black citizen
Young black immigrant
Young, black and 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 trying to find a better way
Pray the Lord will shine a light up on you it's a brighter day
[Hook]
[Outro]
Yeah
We live baby, yeah
Man, we finally did this one huh?
It's been a long time coming
Don't let anybody tell you nothing
