Don't need no border wars
War we no want
Don't need no border wars
War we no want
As I cry out to my fore-fathers and five mothers
And the other half of my tribe with nine others
Searching on this surface crossing borders seeking covers
Switching buses while Im catching evil stares from my brothers
We live a complex reality that we been sentenced
We been blood ever since before independence
The welcome that you giving to me is unexpected
I'm perplexed by the delivery within the message like
Hey wena mtwana are you a kwerekwere
Your accente sound very extraordinary
I don't care who your great great grandmother she marry
Or if you're from a Mqabuko or even from Entebbe
All these border wars
We wasn't ready
My brother I'm just trying to survive
Chete chete
I'm coming from a different war where I'm forsaken
I thought you'd understand since you living next to nothing
But now I see that my presence here got you impatient
We family but a distant relative ain't worth saving
He saying I'm a threat to his job but I don't blame him
But I do
For the hatred you harbouring and the slaying
I do
For the burning of shacks that we both stay in
The constant fighting when what we lacking is conversation
When you were under pressure yesterday and you gave in
My door was always open
And that's how its remaining
Border wars
Xenophobia
Running out of Babylon searching for my utopia
My brown skin is a different kind of shade
And my accent got them asking
You from this place
When stampedes and shanty towns the case
And media brush it off like a cultural exchange
From the same race but my brothers looking at me strange
Who gave the land these borders
Who
Somebody explain
You
Adopted western cultures oppressed us and became
Enslaved, meanwhile ubuntu's the thing that we forsake
Blaming our conditions, but not the cause
Who stands to benefit when we get in these border wars
Chaos is opportunity
Divide and conquer all
Between jail and country the difference is the texture of the walls
They gave us independence
Illusions that we free
And made us proud nationals that shun diversity
Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon
Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon
Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon
Dai matiisawo parinani
Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon
Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon
Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon
Dai matiisawo parinani
Tinogarireiko
Pasina wekutamba naye
Tinogarireiko
Kufira kurarama here
Tinogarireiko
Pasina wekutamba naye
Tinogarireiko
Kufira kurarama here
Shadows of the city stood colossal over dwellers
Rumours of an omen being blown by vuvuzelas
Tryna knock the foreign tone so when I construct a sentence
I feel as if I even mock my own on this premise
Xenophobia! What an ugly name in a place
Where we can enjoy the beautiful diversity of race
I look and feel foreign walking at a different pace
In a cloud of fear and hate I disappear without a track
Into a dark space, consumed by desire to escape
The sad African fate of genocide and rape
I hate to see the burning man but just rewind the tape
Look at what we're doing to ourselves!! Wait!
One people divided from Cairo to the Cape
How does Africa maintain the beauty of her shape
When human blood is flowing in her rivers and her lakes
We're falling for the system! We're making a mistake
Awake! Africa Awake
Awake! Africa Awake
