Yo! I was listening to that song this morning and it inspires me to speak the future of this continent in the same breath...... add yours on.....

There will come a time in Africa
The continent lifted 2 first world status/
No civil the wars, we convict the perpetarots/
There will come a time in Africa
The interruption/ that corruption/ brings, progress halted in abruption/
given attention/ n severly dealt with like Shaik's case of corruption/
There will come a time in Africa
When brothers quit,.. 2 rhyme spit,.. just 2 make the moola./
We write rhymes tyte n sliq,... cos we be using our medulla/
There will come a time in Africa
the G8/ negotiates,/ imports oil from African states/
People getting decent health... from the wealth... the deal creates/
There will come a time in Africa
Nobody called ikwerekwere/ No ditshele*/ -----------> (*strife)
promulgate laws, call a brother that, no mercy sikufak 'ejele*/ ----> (jail)
There will come a time in Africa
Zimbabwe getting rid of the dictator/
Mugabe in prison, rebuild the country we'll release him later/
There will come a time in Africa
The DRC, in unity,/ Michell's plain no more drugs in our comunities/
There will come a time in Africa
When Cush will call upon El Shaddai/
Prophets bring word, from the Lord like my man Haggai/
There will come a time in Africa
Space travel to the moon, crafts from the motherland/
We judge a man by character, no more by the colour brand/
There will come a time in Africa
Sons and daughters spreading the gospel of peace, 2 other continents/
No more debts owing/ property owning/ continent rezoning/
children freely roaming/ a family of One, Christ the head, God our sins atoning./
There will come a time in Africa
The sun rises to radiate/ gravitate/ and help brothers to elevate/
Black and white in common state/
There will come a time in Africa
The continent catch a common sight/
chanting to the african drum/ we grow to greter heights/
(wish I could continue..... gotta get back to work)

Yo YO Masindi man tht was hot!!!!!

{God chillin wit Masindi appears n says)
My child I know u hav many quieries in which there aren't answers
why is Africa wild ..Covered wit deceases n why are there corruptors n gangsters
for this i must ask ya, if we never knew sadness or death didn’t exist
we wouldn’t know happy-ness n life from the dawn of time would still exist n live
(Rhymetodie talking wit god)
when will I not experience no more poverty, penniless and bank statement painted red?
African blood sweat and tears taint us, ill feed the half dead
Kids around corners with frozen waifs,can't remember when they were last fed,
God n Masindi i feel like a laugh is,a long time in comin to this our beautiful continent
When will this time come for Africa?
Brothers in Uganda places they live drips destroy dirty doorways, starting to crumble
Their landlords corrupt so they will probably still charge them to live in the rubble
When will this time come for Africa?
When we in trouble, looking at supermarkets shelves for reduced stickers
The only food kids ate in weeks was from the next door neighbours
Not battlin again!
