Oh sea, may God guide you
You burned me, I'm blamed
I'm leaving Africa fast
I go with no return, I go with no return
I've left my love, I left you forever
I'm oppressed, I'm mistreated
I wanna leave with no return
I see the future only at the port
Bro, life ain't easy
Dying at sea is suicide
That's your life you're sacrificing
Here, they showed me no mercy
I risk death just to live
Like you, there are thousands
They've already forgotten them
Oh traveler, you'll get tired and come back
Oh sea, may God guide you
You burned me, I'm blamed
I'm leaving Africa fast
I go with no return, I go with no return
I've left my love, I left you forever
I go with no return, I go with no return
I've left my love, I left you forever
Forgive me, I saw my dreams fly away
Like a boat that was sinking
Young ones dying while fleeing
It's over, if I hit the sea, it's over
Oh wave, where will you end me
It's over, my sweet, yeah
A little love, a bit more papers
Mama, you prayed, your prayers are my ticket
A little love, a bit more papers
Mama, you prayed, your prayers are my ticket
Oh sea, may God guide you
You burned me, I'm blamed
I'm leaving Africa fast
I go with no return, I go with no return
I've left my love, I left you forever
