Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know, you know, you know
You know that you were wrong before
But you won't, you won't, you won’t
You won't say it, you just ignore
[PreChorus]
How long will we play pretend?
All things, they must come to an end
We sell lies that we have to defend
One day we will pay the rent
[Chorus]
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
[Verse 2]
I know, I know, I know
I know that we're still in this war
But I don't, I don't, I don't
I don't hold onto hate no more
[PreChorus]
How long will we play pretend?
All things, they must come to an end
We sell lies that we have to defend
One day we will pay the rent
[Chorus]
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
[Verse 3]
I've read what was written, your histories and scriptures
What we've been living is something much different
Don't know if you'll listen, but, listen, it's hidden
Want you to get it, time to bear witness
It's sickening we live in a system that's killing my siblings
My uncles, my mothers, my nieces, my aunties, my fathers
My cousins, my brothers, my nephews, I don't even turn on the news
None of it's new
We stand on opposite sides of the truth
It’s not a point of view, they point and shoot and steal and loot
Conceal the truth, confuse and skew the root
The system's not broken, it's working for certain
I'm searching for purpose, I'm hurting
I'm looking for strength, but it's worsening
False gods we worshiping
If there's a heaven, they never gon' let me in
We ain't never been somebody till we just some body that's been murdered
Now everybody heard of us
But they couldn’t give a fuck when we needed a buck or we needed a breath
'Cause I can't breathe with this weight me
I can’t live without my family
I wouldn’t wish this on my enemies
The crazy thing is you be me family
And I can't breathe with this weight me
Damn, I just got clarity
I wouldn't wish this on humanity
The crazy thing is you be me family
[PreChorus]
How long will we play pretend?
All things, they must come to an end
We sell lies that we have to defend
One day we will pay the rent
[Chorus]
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
Banamba banam – banamba
