Congo Warrior
© Kelly Myers & Jose Hendrix September, 2010
I'm a Congo Warrior
Born a survivor
Keep my peace
With lovers and fighters
I'm a Congo Warrior
Born a survivor
Keep my peace
With lovers and fighters
In a concrete jungle
Got my battle scars
High rises around me
I run fast and hard
I'm a Congo warrior
Survive like a rebel
Thinking like a lover
Singing like a soldier
In my concrete jungle
I'm a Congo warrior
This concrete jungle
Far from the trees
I run fast and far
Never did I flee
I'm a Congo warrior
Survive like a rebel
Thinking like a lover
Singing like a soldier
In a concrete jungle
I'm a Congo warrior
In a concrete jungle
Flames rise in heat
Been near and far
Looking for peace
I'm a Congo warrior
Survive like a fighter
I think like a lover
I sing like a soldier
In my concrete jungle
I'm a Congo warrior
Survive like a fighter
Think like a lover
Sing like a soldier
In a concrete jungle
I'm a Congo Warrior
Born a survivor
I keep my peace
With lovers and fighters
