Lyrics

Light
Light
I know that song when it sings to me
With the hum
With the hum
Oh it sings to me
With a tone so softly
You’re bad and you’re bold and you’re grown and you know that you’re strong
in your thoughts
And you’re black and you’re beautiful
You’re bad and you’re bold and you’re grown and you know that you’re strong
in your thoughts
And you’re brown and you’re beautiful
Tiri Shiri dzakasungukuka mumhepo
Mashavishavi anobhururuka pamusoro
Dzinodarika zvinhu zvose
Bhururuka
You’re bad and you’re bold
Bhururuka
You’re bad and you’re bold
Haubatike nekuti, uri shiri
Yaka sungukuka mumhepo
Uri shiri rino bhururuka pamusoro
Rinodarika zvinhu zvose
Drag yourself through this day
Eat nothing, drink water, break light
Break fast, break even
Break just enough to leave it whole still
Uri shiri rino yakasununguka mumhepo
Shavi rino bhururuka pamusoro
Rinodarika zvinhu zvose
Speak yourself into existence
For you are the God of yourself
And you do walk on water
Drag your body through this day
Shaura, Tamba, Idja
Bata Mazwi ayi
Kuitira mangwana
Tiri shiri dzakasununguka mumhepo
Oh it sings to me with a tone so softly
And emerge into the night
A swamp baby
Full of still waters
And courage
Like a barren field in this storm
Like a barren field in this storm
You’re bad and you’re bold and you’re bright and you’re beautiful
You’re bad and you’re bold and you’re brown and you’re beautiful
You’re bad and you’re bold and you’re bright and you’re beautiful
You’re bad and you’re bold and you’re brown and you’re beautiful
