Africa Speaks Lyrics by Santana

Africa Speaks

2019

[Intro]
Deep in the jungle
Beyond the reach of greed
You hear the voices of spirits
With their frequency of light
Making sounds like the crackling of stars at night
Communicating with plants, animals, and mankind
Affirming the universal truth
All and everything was conceived here in Africa
The cradle of civilization

[Verse 1]
De la paz pasajera
Del amor habla el libro de los hombres
Y del fuego en el mar
Veneno y sal

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Del amor y la guerra
Veneno
Veneno
Mm-mm
Mm-mm

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
De la paz y de la guerra
Habla el libro de los hombres
Y del fuego en el mar
Veneno y sal
En las noches traicioneras
Vuelan los besos sin rumbo
Hay fuego en el mar
Veneno y sal
