I seek you in my dreams In my waking dreams and in my sleep I seek you in the red earth Where you lay deep I seek you in the rare air On the mountain top Where sacred rocks balance In frozen motion I seek you at the depths of the ocean I seek you where the ancestors dwell I seek them as well I seek you in the rough, the raw And the uncut treasures of the land In their glittery, shiny allure And in the long, rocky rand I seek you in the rich earth Red and abundantly generous In the wealth of native labourers I seek dominion over that which I take By cunning or by force, my claim I stake History will write my story I seek all the glory I seek you in knowledge and scholarship Among the red bricks upon the hill I seek you in pious devotion to the foreign god Although my ancestors are with me still I seek you in my matriarchs In their sacrifice and their love That pushes me to fly and soar above I seek you in the thrill of adventure And the ambitions that I nurture My duty keeps me diligent I seek true enlightenment I seek you in the ocean's warm salty spray And the back and forth of the frothy tide I seek you in the grains of sand on which you lay My melanin-rich queen and bride I seek you in the swell of your rising breast And in the sway of your ample hips Then I seek you with my iron fists And the lash of my tongue Until you are gone, but I am sprung I seek you again and again I seek love I seek you in the slithering snaking iron And the sleepers the locomotives ride on In the huffing, and the puffing, and the choo-choo I seek the far-off places they take you In the lava, the bedrock, and the mud I seek you in the depths of the earth I seek you in the dwindling lifeblood Sucked and stripped of all it's worth I seek you in the suburbs and the townships Where the tattered fabric of family rips Where the structure is breaking, not bending I seek mending I seek you in my dreams In my waking dreams and in my sleep I seek you in the red earth Where you lay deep I seek you in the rare air On the mountain top Where sacred rocks balance In frozen motion I seek you at the depths of the ocean I seek you where the ancestors dwell I seek them as well
