Amandla ft. Mphathi Mrubata & Basetsana Lyrics

I'm out of these words, the words that I wrote

The words that I quote

The words that I told

Too many is told

Too many get tolled

My feelings are old

My feelings are bold

My feelings on hold

My feelings on hold

My feelings on hold, my feelings on hold (kwa phela amandla)

Kwa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Kwa phela amandla

Listen to me

Where should I start?

This pain is numbing my heart

I might go insane, I'm falling apart

I'm aiming the pain, I'm throwing the dart

But I keep on missing, I'm aiming the heart

Forget what I said

The love that I need is the love that I hate

'Cause I cannot breathe, I'm guessing it's fake

Too many reasons for one to relate

Do You not see that I do not need loving

I don't need cuffing, I don't need weight

I don't need luggage, I'm not encouraged

All that I need is a couple of spades

To bury these feelings on me

All of these feelings, these feelings that I cannot take

You took my hommie, you took my father, you took my great grandmama away

Trust in your word, that's all that they say

They keep telling us "keep looking for love" but pain answers "I'm right on my way"

The more that I love the more that it stays

The more that I hug, the more that I pray

I pray all My cousins and I can put all of our family's hatred away

Buried these feelings, the pain is now running away

It's a marathon, this is no back in the days

It's a matter of time until the pain returns

And it will keep taxing without a single return

Just breathe

No sleep

In

Too deep

Too deep

No sleep

Just breathe

I'm out of these words, the words that I wrote

The words that I quote

The words that I told

Too many is told

Too many get tolled

My feelings are old

My feelings are bold

My feelings on hold

My feelings on hold

My feelings on hold (kwa phela amandla)

Kwa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Kwa phela amandla

As I sit in silence

I keep on hearing these words in echo invading my conscience

They keep pulling my strings or maybe my heart is a violin

Wishing I could show you all the times where love felt timeless

So imagine a world where all of the crying wasn't in pain

And all of the dying wasn't in vain

And all of that love was highly in train

God, let it Rain

All of the blessings I pray for today

I hope that they shutter all of these chains

I hope that they cover all my shame

I hope my lover remembers my name

I hope my lover remembers the day

When we couldn't flicker a spark nor a flame

Look at the issues I'm trying to aim

Look at the issues I'm trying to tame

Look at the impact I'm trying to influence you to know this no part of a game

Can't you not see It's not one and the same

Can't you not see it's not one and the same

Buried these feelings, the pain is now running away

It's a marathon, this is no back in the days

It's a matter of time until the pain returns

And it will keep taxing without a single return

Just breathe

No sleep

In

Too deep

Too deep

No sleep

Just breathe

I'm out of these words, the words that I wrote

The words that I quote

The words that I told

Too many is told

Too many get tolled

My feelings are old

My feelings are bold

My feelings on hold

My feelings on hold

My feelings on hold (kwa phela amandla)

Kwa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Wa phela amandla

Kwa phela amandla
