lyrics

Now we are low because we spent a lifetime getting high trying to fly away from problems only we know
Dear Dedalus after you land, ukifind time, tafuta mifupa za Icarus kwenye sea floor
You thought you could run
Dunia ni yangu, huwezi jificha
That’s why they call me life nakuja vile unanipicture
Ukiona uchungu nakupa uchungu sitakuficha
Uchungu so severe utawish breath ya God haingekufika
Amen
