lungelo manzi - these times كلمات الأغنية

chorus (ngola)
stars align but the moon must shine
stars align but the moon must shine
we are the light in these times
we are the light in these times
we are the light
we are the light
we are the light in these times
we are the light
we are the light
we are the light in these times

verse (lungelo manzi)
he’s 21
a quarter a mill in debt, chasing a degree with a handicap
she’s 17
pregnant with a baby and a baby daddy no one ever met
he’s 34
like a rolling stone, unemployed, looking for the holy ghost
she’s 35
no nsc, black sheep with the hiv
just another family in the system
carried by the melanin and single mothers
living on a sermon and the scriptures
any promise faker than the minister’s
administer peace, minister please
don’t forget about the meek though
like what do you mean, what do you see
weren’t you running from the same foes?
d-mn

chorus (ngola)
stars align but the moon must shine
stars align but the moon must shine
we are the light in these times
we are the light in these times
we are the light (think i’m going mad again)
we are the light (everybody acting weird)
we are the light (i don’t even know my friends)
in these times (i don’t even know if i’m here)
we are the light (think i’m going mad again)
we are the light (everybody acting weird)
we are the light (i don’t even know my friends)
in these times (i don’t even know, i don’t even know)

bridge (lungelo manzi)
(timomo, timomo, timomomo) you have the right to remain silent
(timomo, timomo, timomomo) anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law
(timomo, timomo, timomomo)
(timomomo, timomomo)
(timomo, timomo, timomomo) you have the right to an attorney
(timomo, timomo, timomomo) if you cannot afford one
(timomo, timomo, timomomo) well then
(timomomo, timomomo) you’re f-cked!

verse
we some champagne sippin’ activists
on some tall tale, telling cameras
we some greedy god-forsaken savages
playing characters, sniffing catalysts
young enough to feel the rush of losing friends
enough to be in love and never care
enough to want to travel anywhere
not enough to leave your job, pay your bills
cop a new chain for the counterfeits
daddy issues kept a n-gga on the edge
mommy issues kept a n-gga on the fence
enough to keep a n-gga unaware
unprepared, praying off another debt
i resent everything that led to this
i repent, paying with another stack
i reflect, thinking you misunderstand
i think i’m tired and neglected
think it’s the fire i project with
think it’s devoid of my commitments
i fear the omens you predicted
i fear the patterns to the prison
became a culture in a system
i beat the devils to a better man
betraying biko for the boy’s end
i’m k!lling women loving women
or k!lling n-ggas being n-ggas
or k!lling n-ggas loving n-ggas
whatever keeps whoever timid
whatever keeps the flag missing, yeah
i’m pulling triggers out the good book
for some hidden figures and a good look
for the same heathens in the same hooks
oh lord, lord, lord
