Mattafix - Memories Of Soweto lyrics

<BR>

Memories of,<br>

Memories of Soweto.<br>

<br>

Sing whoa,<br>

From London to Soweto,<br>

A street soul in the ghetto.<br>

Back from the West Indies,<br>

When I'm in the city let my mind echo,<br>

Memories of Soweto.<br>

And anywhere that we go,<br>

I'm letting you know,<br>

The walk of a Street Soul.<br>

<br>

Look man,<br>

I was born there.<br>

I mean bred there.<br>

I mean without the bread.<br>

Viva was all I had.<br>

The people sang Amandla and the streets were red.<br>

Liberation was a dream that we never had.<br>

As I took a back seat on my mumma's back,<br>

And I looked over the shoulder and saw the hurt.<br>

Mumma let me kill this song for you,<br>

After all this years this is Uhuru.<br>

<br>

I stepped off a jet plane I'm in S.A once again,<br>

With the faces of change and the feelings' the same.<br>

And the lines on my hands are as free as this land.<br>

But it wasn't always so,<br>

Still reminds me of home.<br>

<br>

Mumma let me kill this song for you,<br>

After all this years this is Uhuru<br>

<br>

Sing whoa<br>

Sing whoa<br>

Sing yeah.<br>

<br>

What our memories in times of,<br>

Inspired I exemplify.<br>

<BR><BR>
