Africa,All I Need Is Love

She has the eyes of a lion and the smile of a fairy She has the claws of a bear and the cuteness of a kitten She unlocks secured caves of hearts In silence she sings summoning mantras In peace she wages war against the sun In life she nurses death with her soiled hands She is a daughter of the soil and she has her lips to my neck Africa,all I need is love She walks softly in the sanctuary while she runs through avenues of minds Those that behold her seductive frame become free slaves Her curves burst nerves and destroy holy matrimony In her tongue lies juices that fuel sparks of fire in blood lines There is something about the way she spreads her wings Something about the way she walks on water ,it's fishy She fishes for souls in pools of African emancipation She is a daughter of the soil and she has her lips to my neck Africa,all I need is love Her hands resurrect dead souls while her words kills them She likes to be liked, her likeness is likable but her shadow is unpopular among my people She wears expensive robes and cheap shoes Her paths are straight but her ways are as crooked as the lines on hell's map She is the candle type,she melts if you are that good Yet her heart remains strong ,standing unshaken and outstanding She connects easily with both nature and the underworld She makes you wonder and understand She shakes trees like the wind She conceives in the mind Her chariot brings forth gold and bronze She is a daughter of the soil and she has her lips to my neck Africa,all I need is love STREETPO3TRY
