If wewe ever leave me, baby
Leave some morphine at my door
'Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have
We don't have it anymore
There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor, ooh
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm makin'
To keep wewe kwa my side
And keep wewe from walkin' out the door
'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
And just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same
If wewe walk away
Everyday, it’ll rain, rain, rain
I'll never be your mother's favorite, uh
Your daddy can't even look me in the eye, ooh
If I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
Sayin' there goes my little girl
Walkin' with that troublesome guy
But they're just afraid of something they can't understand, ooh
But little darlin' watch me change their minds
Yeah for wewe I'll try, I'll try, I'll try, I’ll try
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make wewe mine
'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
And just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same
If wewe walk away
Everyday, it’ll rain, rain, rain
Oh, don't wewe say goodbye
Don't wewe say goodbye
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it right
'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
And there'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby

If we never found this love
If we never took that road
If we hadn't had the heart
We wouldn't have this home
Love, upendo will take you
Love, upendo will take wewe there
Love, upendo will take you
Love, upendo will take wewe there
In this world the moyo beats slow
In my arms let's share the cold
In my eyes you’re all I've known
Darling let's go home
Love, upendo will take you
Love, upendo will take wewe there

Well I can go a million miles an hour
But I’ve been bored so try to drag me down into the night
But if the morning I knew the song
In the arms of a miracle
Come back and see where you’re from
I can see the sun is on the rush
The pulse is strong, it warms wewe better than the Joe they left behind
But in the breath before wewe go
In the arms of a miracle
Come back and see where you’ve gone
It starts as a battle of luck
In the end it’s in the hands of a ghost
Well I am
Well I am
I can go a million miles an hour
But I can see the sun upon their eyes
I can go a million miles an hour
I can see it’s all true
wewe start to feel it finally
It starts as a battle of luck
But it ends when the hands of a ghost lay it down yeah

Last born of the clan
First one to be free
Lived inside a house
Beneath the hanging tree
Loved them deadly nights
That chilled him to the bone
Words were cried at night
In unforgiving tones
Blood of his men was gone beneath snow
He picked up his kisu and his bow
Killer of Jonathan Low
Violence from without
And anger from within
Crawling through the fields
Informing inayofuata of kin
They all turned their backs
But they all knew his name
And if he could return
They'd probably do the same
Blood of his Marafiki was gone beneath snow
For all that I know, he died
Killer of Jonathan Low

The moon is always full for us
The road is always clear
That's not what wewe want to hear
One is born so one can die
wewe must wait a real long time
That's zaidi than wewe can bear
And the days will come and go
And the band will march alone
Till the siku wewe cast a shadow
And it's nothing like your own
Rolling in on a burning tire
You're gonna set my house on fire
Just to onyesha me that wewe were there
Flowers raised up like a snake
wewe will raise to leave me bait
And always, always take
And the days will come and go
And the band will march alone
Till the siku wewe cast a shadow
And it's nothing like your own
The moon is always full for us
The road is always clear
That’s not what wewe want to hear

And it's nothing like your own
The moon is always full for us
The road is always clear
That’s not what wewe want to hear
That’s not what wewe want to hear
I think I know what’s on your mind
A couple words, a great divide
Waiting in the wings, a small respite
Crowding up the foreground from behind
Even though you’re the only one I see
It’s the last catastrophe
Place your bets on chance and apathy
Take anything wewe want, it’s fine
Keep up the slow life for the night
Don’t take it back, I’ll just deny
This constant noise all the time
Even though you’re the only one I see
It’s the last catastrophe
Place your bets on chance and apathy
From the wind in front of me
Even though you’re the only one I see
It’s the last catastrophe
Place your bets on chance and apathy

Even though you’re the only one I see
It’s the last catastrophe
Place your bets on chance and apathy
From the wind in front of me
Even though you’re the only one I see
When these pillars get put down
It will be wewe who wears the crown
And I’ll owe everything to you
Oooohh
Oooohh
How much pain has cracked your soul
And how much upendo would make wewe whole
You’re my guiding lightning strike
I can’t find the words to say
They’re overdue
I’ve traveled half the world to say
I belong to you
Oooohh
Oooohh
And she attacks me like a Leo
When my moyo is mgawanyiko, baidisha like Rio
And I assure wewe my debts are real
I can’t find the words to say
When I’m confused
I traveled half the world to say
wewe are my muse
Oooohh
Oooohh
Oooohh
I can’t find the words to say
They’re overdue

So pretty, so smart
Such a waste of her young heart
What a pity, what a sham
What’s the matter with wewe man
Don’t wewe see it’s wrong, can’t wewe get it right
Out of mind and out of sight
Call on all your girls, don’t forget the boys
Put a lid on all that noise
I’m a satellite heart
Lost in the dark
I’m spun out so far
wewe stop, I start
But I’ll be true to you
I hear you’re living out of state
Running in a whole new scene
wewe know I haven’t slept in weeks
You’re the only thing I see
I’m a satellite heart
Lost in the dark
I’m spun out so far
wewe stop, I start
But I’ll be true to you
I’m a satellite heart
Lost in the dark
I’m spun out so far
wewe stop, I start
But I’ll be true to you
No matter what wewe do
Yeah I’ll be true to you
Such a waste of her young heart
What a pity, what a sham
What’s the matter with wewe man
Don’t wewe see it’s wrong, can’t wewe get it right
Out of mind and out of sight

But I’ll be true to you
No matter what wewe do
Yeah I’ll be true to you
I was a quick wet boy
Diving too deep for coins
All of your mitaani, mtaa light eyes
Wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
aliiba me a dog-eared map
And called for wewe everywhere
Have I found you
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill looming
Now I’m a fat house cat
Nursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats
Curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
Blood of Christ mountain streams
Have I found you
Flightless bird, grounding, bleeding
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill stuck going down
Diving too deep for coins
All of your mitaani, mtaa light eyes
Wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
aliiba me a dog-eared map
And called for wewe everywhere
Have I found you
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill looming
Now I’m a fat house cat
Nursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats
Curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
Blood of Christ mountain streams
Have I found you
Flightless bird, grounding, bleeding
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill stuck going down
Should never think
What’s in your heart
What’s in our home
And so I won’t
And you’ll learn to hate me
Still call me baby
Oh, love
So call me kwa my name
And save your soul
Save your soul
Before you’re too far gone
Before nothing can be done
Try to decide when
She’ll lie in the end
Ain’t got no fight in me
In this whole damn world
Tell wewe to hold off
Choose to hold on
It’s one thing that I’ve known
Once I put my kanzu, koti on
Coming out in this all wrong, ooh
She’s standing outside holding me
Saying oh please
I’m in love
I’m in love
Girl save your soul, ooh
Save your soul
Before you’re too far gone
And before nothing can be done
‘Cause without me
wewe got it all
So hold on
Without me wewe got it all
Hold on
Without me wewe got it all
Without me wewe got it all
So hold on
Without me wewe got it all
So hold on
Without me wewe got it all
So hold on
What’s in your heart
What’s in our home
And so I won’t
And you’ll learn to hate me
Still call me baby
Oh, love
So call me kwa my name
And save your soul
Save your soul
