about

FAnta
Language: Mandinka

lyrics

She can say it and do it and make it happen.
She believes in herself.
She has a strong mind and isn't afraid of anything.
Hey Fanta. I'm talking to the real Fanta.
You can make it happen no matter what but remember
We will propose, God will dispose.
It is up to him and you are human.
A horse can gallop but needs reins to be controlled.
I am wanting to use those reins now.
You are stubborn and you have not met your match. Yet.
Dance Fanta. Dance with me. Dance my words.
Whirl stubborn but beautiful Fanta.
Feel what we are saying and forget your stubbornness.
Fanta, you must give up sometimes. Accept sometimes what life gives you. See your limitations and receive as you give.
