Obeah, I love the journey that we've been on
Hey Obeah
Who in their right mind can know these places exist?
Ooh Obeah
Return me to my village now
Hey Obeah
Book me some passage upon a light
Mmhmm
My Africa, this is encouraging
The gain of ourselves as a people
Is to live an African way
Obeah
I appreciate the warmth of your patience
Ooh Obeah
Without it I couldn't journey to touch your star
Hey Obeah
Return me to my mud hut now
Hey Obeah
Book me me some passage upon some light
Mmhmm

My Africa, this is encouraging
The gain of ourselves as a people
Is to live an African way
Obeah, you got to recreate African ways
Obeah, you got to help rebuild African ways
Obeah, you got to reinforce African ways, African ways.

Obeah remember how it is when the sandman comes
Obeah remember that they are lookin' for scapegoats and carryin' chains
Obeah remember, keep your minds open 'cause they're comin' again.
Obeah remember that some people are going to die to pay for their craze.

My Africa, this is encouraging
The gain of ourselves as a people
Is to live an African way
Obeah, you got to recreate African ways
Obeah, you got to help rebuild African ways
Obeah, you got to reinforce African ways, natural ways.

It is Zimbabwe that tried to hold the African way
It is the Masai that keeps the color in the African way
It is the elephant that ponders the African way
And it is the lion that encourages the African way.

Oh, now is the time to build what we want
The gain of ourselves as a people
Is to live a natural way
Obeah...
