Slave to the River Lyrics

(Laygwan)
from a stream she cried me river
and at the river she showed me my dream
only peace could deliver
the son of sons and let him resuce me
anyway
slave to the river
followin` no sinner
slave to the river
followin` no sinner
(Patrice)
teardrops gonna flow away
sunshine`s gonna bow the rain
teardrops gonna flow away
sunshine`s gonna bow the rain

(Patrice)
when the smoke cleared she was standin`there
there was nomore fear on the battlefield
tell me who is fit to judge a man
that was there from before time began
the ancient spirit from the river bank
babatunde son of a great man that was known to be a givin`one
livin`son of a mother that is beautiful
oh I feal so powerful
when I flow and..
slave to the river
followin` no sinner
slave to the river
followin` no sinner
(Patrice)
teardrops gonna flow away
sunshine`s gonna bow the rain
teardrops gonna flow away
sunshine`s gonna bow the rain

(Laygwan)
follow the one and only true done gogon
"lay" was born from the soit that was planted by the "gwan"
I am the son of sons of chamnuka and
nehanda hrere true kwere kwere african
who`s knocking at my door an whant fi offer me american
brainwash my nation to amegeddon
with nuclear science, technoloy and money charm
that`s how dem want fi confict the third nation
but soon and very soon I ah know that their day will come
prophecied in revelations
cry me a river where peace sees the morning sun
and the resurrection of leader and swan
slave to the river
followin` no sinner
slave to the river
followin` no sinner
(Patrice)
teardrops gonna flow away
sunshine`s gonna bow the rain
teardrops gonna flow away
sunshine`s gonna bow the rain
