DANCE AS DAWN COMES


When the hour is right in response to the universal ticking

the sun, wakes up as the universe becomes a hive of new activity

thrusting the dawn of a new day on all creatures, great and small

which exude a warm carpet of rainbows full of blessings and miracles

to bless the good and the bad, the ugly and the beautiful,

the poor and the rich signaling to them, of the arrival of a time to finish old moves

and learn new moves and just dance...dance...dance, as they take to the dance floor ...LIFE !!!

JUST LIKE THE SUN



Just like the sun

I want to shine

To both my friends and enemies

The poor and the rich

The believers and the atheists

The smart ones and the dumb ones

The heroes and the villains

The hunters and the sitting ducks

The masters and the slaves

Heads or tails it won't matter

For my job is to shine

Throughout all the ages

Which may be lost in time!

Rebirth Of A People, Rise Of A Nation



Inspired by a piece from Sir Sam Greenlee


Rebirth Of A People
rebirth of a nation
rebirth of a continent

kaboom kaboom kaboom

hear the sound of the big drum
i am not just a drum i have become alive

my song is for you
you gotta listen to my song

kaboom kaboom kaboom

boys and gals, mothers and fathers
come anyone, come everybody

kaboom kaboom kaboom

chiefs, warriors and goat headers
come everybody but pliz no haterz

kaboom kaboom kaboom

dance stance dance stance
trance dance trance dance

the moment is biblical and magical
for those not called his people
nevertheless will become his people

kaboom kaboom kaboom

get blown away and not cast away
feel the rhythm right here

dance stance dance stance
trance dance trance dance

Shaka , Martin , Marcus, Malcom, Kwame!!!

the time is now and it's ripe
your dreams are all embodied in this spear
i have seen the raven and the jaguar
those two are beautiful creatures
blackness is beautiful and that is niceness

kaboom kaboom kaboom

I am a drum but not just a drum
for now i have become alive 

my song is for you
you gotta listen to my song

kaboom kaboom kaboom

rebirth of a people
rebirth of a nation
rebirth of a continent
