Lyrics
Description
Verse 1
I peek behind the curtain of the city lights and signs,
Counting promises like coins, asking who designs the lines.
Why do the rules bend softer for some hands than for mine?
Curiosity whispers: whose dream is this world defined?
Maps drawn on paper, edges inked with fear and need,
Leaders with glass houses, selling futures we can’t read.
I trace the threads of power, wondering where truth begins,
Is history a story told, or stitched to hide our sins?
Chorus
Oh, wake up, Africa, feel the sunrise in your chest,
Questions are our weapons, curiosity’s the test.
We’ll sing until the sleepers open up their eyes,
Wallace Tembo, Ghetto Prophet, asking why the sky lies.
Verse 2
In churches and in corners where the candles flicker low,
I bend the light with questions that refuse to let go.
Who wrote the scriptures of comfort, who profits from our faith?
Is heaven a promise or a veil to hide the race?
I wonder if the steeples echo truth or only sound,
If salvation’s being sold on streets where hunger’s found.
Between the hymns and headlines, something’s missing from the page —
A human hand, a wrestling for the center of the stage.
Chorus
Oh, wake up, Africa, feel the sunrise in your chest,
Questions are our weapons, curiosity’s the test.
We’ll sing until the sleepers open up their eyes,
Wallace Tembo, Ghetto Prophet, asking why the sky lies.
Bridge
Not to burn the bridges, only light the path to see,
Not to break the pillars, only ask who carved the key.
Curiosity like thunder — gentle, then it shakes the ground,
When minds begin to wander, truth is what we’ll hunt and found.
Verse 3
From Cape Town to Cairo, from Lagos to the Nile,
Old rhythms meet new reasons, and the future wears a smile.
We’re more than borrowed leaders, more than borrowed prayers,
We’re voices of the villages, the cities, and the squares.
Wake up, hear your heartbeat, it’s louder than the drums,
Stand inside the question — change begins when question comes.
Take the stories back and stitch them with your own two hands,
Africa remember: you make the maps, you draw the lands.
Chorus (repeat)
Oh, wake up, Africa, feel the sunrise in your chest,
Questions are our weapons, curiosity’s the test.
We’ll sing until the sleepers open up their eyes,
Wallace Tembo, Ghetto Prophet, asking why the sky lies.
Outro
So I’ll keep asking softly, keep the lantern burning bright,
Curious like a child who won’t be eased by night.
Name carved on the pavement, a voice within the plot —
Wallace Tembo, Ghetto Prophet, asking everything we’ve got.
