micah bournes - who broke africa? كلمات الأغنية

Loading...

let me ask you something
who broke africa?
and how do we fix it?

political unrest
rebel militias
stomachs swollen with emptiness water
polluted with disease, hiv, gender violence, the whole world is crying and we all wanna know
who broke africa?
and why is it that this one particular continent is taking so long to update, urbanize, enforce human rights, and figure out the right way to be human

if only she could be like us
you know
free
educated
healthy
prosperous
consumeristic
pornographic
gluttonous and never gratified yet we look with eyes of pity upon her for being
less fortunate

but what if she’s only less
rich

might african youth have greater joy with a beat up soccer ball than we do with flat screens laptops new shoes and a hundred shirts we never wear hanging in a closet full of things we thought would make us happy

but we remain
insecure
alone
depressed

now look
i’m not saying we’re no better off than africa but
maybe it’s presumptuous to -ssume we are

life is hard in africa
a struggle
but could the conflict be a sign of hope
proving that she is full of those who refuse to let injustice reign uncontested
africa is no damsel in distress and we are not her savior

africa is a mother in labor ripe with pain and life
by the grace of god may we stand by her side as a midwife and friend
offering aid and encouragement but knowing that we must empower her to push by her own strength
walk by her own faith
and as we work with our sister in humble love maybe we will discover how to fix
what is broken
in us

for brokenness belongs to us all
but hope only to those who come together
before god
