Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're a good soldier, choosing your battles
Pick yourself up and dust yourself off
Get back on the saddle
[Verse 2]
You're in the front line, everyone's watching
You know it's serious, we're getting closer
This isn't over
[Verse 3]
This pressure is on, you feel it
But you got it all, believe it
[Verse 4]
When you fall, get up, oh-oh
And if you fall, get up, eh-eh
Tzamina mina, zangalewa
'Cause this is Africa!
[Verse 5]
Tzamina mina, eh-eh
Waka waka, eh-eh
Tzamina mina, zangalewa
This time for Africa!
[Verse 6]
Listen to your God, this is our motto
Your time to shine, don't wait in line
Y vamos por todo
[Verse 7]
People are raising their expectations
Go on and feed them, this is your moment
No hesitations
[Verse 8]
Today's your day, I feel it
You paved the way, believe it
[Verse 9]
If you get down, get up, oh-oh
When you get down, get up, eh-eh
Tzamina mina, zangalewa
This time for Africa!
[Verse 10]
Tzamina mina, eh-eh
Waka waka, eh-eh
Tzamina mina, zangalewa
Anawa, ah-ah
[Verse 11]
Tzamina mina, eh-eh
Waka waka, eh-eh
Tzamina mina, zangalewa
This time for Africa!
[Verse 12]
Africa, Africa, Africa, Africa
Africa, Africa, Africa, Africa
Africa, Africa, Africa, Africa
Africa, Africa, Africa, Africa
[Verse 13]
Tzamina mina, eh-eh
Waka waka, eh-eh
Tzamina mina, zangalewa
Anawa, ah-ah
[Verse 14]
Tzamina mina, eh-eh
Waka waka, eh-eh
Tzamina mina, zangalewa
This time for Africa!
