Story Behind the Song
I can't play with a pic yet... after listening to this song, you will understand why it's called "Another Bloody Finger".
Lyrics
Tell me not how to live to avoid death
Follow my path to love and nature’s wonder
Life is simple; yet another cycle
But my people’s dreams live on
Help Me,
Save Me,
Help Me Save Myself
Free from your dark soul and white skin
Leave my brothers dance till they die
You let my spirits soar to chained dreams
Constrained by their own conceptions
Help Me,
Save Me,
Help Me Save Myself
My children know only the voice of god
Weakened souls will suffer, indeed they will
Fear and sickness collide in my world
But hate and greed govern yours
Help Us,
Save Us,
Help Us Save Ourselves
Our dreams corrupted by fouled thoughts
Or simply forgotten to shelves of stone
Buried with the corpses who wrote them
Survival has moved us beyond reason
Perfection is no definition
But look in my children’s eyes
Anger and hunger mixed with pain
Give him strength to fight demons within
Help Him,
Save Him,
Help Him Save Himself
Good intentions limited by your rules
How can you live so long in your excited state?
I ask not for pity
I ask not for money
I ask for equality
I ask for my children to see
My Africa in all its beauty
Help Me
Save Me
I am Africa
I am glorious
And till that day, I will believe –
The best is yet to come
