Verse 1
You're a good soldier, choosing your battles
Pick yourself up and dust yourself off, get back in the saddle
You're on the front line, everyone's watching
You know it's serious, we're getting closer, this isn't over
Chorus 1
The pressure's on, you feel it
But you got it all, believe it
When you fall get up
If you fall get up
Tsamina mina zangalewa
'cause this is africa
Tsamina mina
Waka waka
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for africa
Verse 2
Listen to your god, this is our motto
Your time to shine, don't wait in line, y vamos por todo
People are raising their expectations
Go on and feed them, this is your moment, no hesitations
Chorus 2
Today's your day, i feel it
You paved the way, believe it
If you get down get up
When you get down get up
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for africa
