Afro Knight

"Afro-Knight"

Nelson Mandela was his name , he was a hero. Captain Africa carrying the cross like Jesus.

A fight to the finish.... patience was my super power.
Twenty seven years of meditation....the Victory.
Your heart is made of gold.

A nation divided by hate!
Ignorance! The disgusting violence between seasons together they howl the winds of life, different shades one soul.

I wanna be like you , talk like you! Do a Madiba dance like you.
Love like you did! Forgive! Forget ....lived! A hero , an African Hero.
