[00:01.000] 作曲 : Simbiatu Ajikawo/Dean Josiah Cover
[00:56.658] There's a war, there's a war
[00:57.442]
[01:08.951] The kingdom's on fire
[01:09.941] The blood of a young messiah
[01:11.383] I see sinners in a church
[01:12.462] I see sinners in a church
[01:14.017] Sometimes I might be introvert
[01:16.587] There's a war inside
[01:17.572] I hear battle cries
[01:19.019] Mothers burying sons
[01:20.289] Young boys playing with guns
[01:21.559] The devil's a liar
[01:22.592] Fulfil your wildest desires
[01:24.384] Now I don't wanna be the one to doctor this
[01:26.101] But if you can't feel pain, then you can't feel the opposite
[01:28.993] The fight between the Yin and Yang's a fight you'll never win
[01:31.363] I study humans, that makes me an anthropologist
[01:34.016] I'm not into politics
[01:35.094] But I know it's dark times
[01:36.712] Parts of the world still living in Apartheid
[01:39.045] But if I don't takе this winner's flight, that's career suicide
[01:42.032] Though I should've been a friеnd when your grandma died
[01:44.483] I see the illness eat my aunt laying in her bed
[01:46.630] I see her soul rising as her body gets closer to death
[01:48.898]
[02:01.301] Find a way, I'll find a way
[02:03.729] The world's not over
[02:06.410] I will make it, don't you cry
[02:08.883] In God we trust
[02:10.319] 'Cause we're not alone
[02:10.848]
[02:11.201] I need a licence to feel
[02:13.062] Internal wounds and I'm not tryna be healed
[02:15.577] I sabotage what we are trying to build
[02:17.611] 'Cause of feelings I keep inside, but it's time to reveal (Reveal, reveal)
[02:22.074] I hate the thought of just being a burden
[02:24.206] I hate that these conversations are surfaced
[02:27.062] Simz the artist or Simbi the person?
[02:29.331] To you I'm smiling, but really I'm hurting
[02:31.979] I dedicate my life and gave my heart over twenty something years
[02:34.792] Left wondering how I even feel
[02:36.718] Or was it was even worth it?
[02:38.737] I bottle up and then spill it in verses
[02:41.140] One day I'm wordless, next day I'm a wordsmith
[02:43.344] Close to success, but to happiness I'm the furthest
[02:46.251] At night I wonder if my tears will dry on their own
[02:48.802] Hoping I will fulfil Amy's purpose
[02:51.376] Angel said, "Don't let you ego be a disturbance"
[02:53.780] Inner demon said, "Mother ****er, you earned this"
[02:56.432] Like they strip you of everything you're deserving
[02:58.947] Realise there is a prison in us, we are conditioned as ****
[03:02.393] Man, it's like they can't sleep till our spirit is crushed
[03:04.823] How much fighting must we do? We've been fearless enough
[03:07.353] All we see is broken homes here and poverty
[03:09.715] Corrupt government officials, lies and atrocities
[03:12.210] How they talking on what's threatening the economy
[03:14.687] Knocking down communities to re-up on properties
[03:17.185] I'm directly effected, it does more than just bother me
[03:19.694] Look beyond the surface, don't just see what you wanna see?
[03:22.266] My speech ain't involuntary
[03:23.535] Project with intention straight from my lungs
[03:25.432] I'm a black woman and I'm a proud one
[03:27.743] We walk in blind faith not knowing the outcome
[03:30.270] But as long as we're unified, then we've already won
[03:32.003]
[03:57.118] Find a way, I'll find a way
[03:59.637] The worlds not over
[04:02.024] I will make it, don't you cry
[04:04.802] In God we trust
[04:06.287] 'Cause we're not alone
[04:07.260]
[04:59.483] And so it begins
[05:01.005] The base is an amalgamation of everything
[05:04.145] Rules are not to be played by rebels
[05:06.812] The story of never ending
[05:09.558] Your introversion led you here
[05:12.308] Intuition protected you along the way
[05:14.929] Feelings allowed you to be well balanced
[05:17.413] And perspective gave you foresight
[05:20.625] The top of the mountain is nothing without the climb
[05:24.188] Only the strong will survive
[05:26.169] Only the strong will survive
[05:27.767]
[05:41.404] Alone, but not lonely
[05:43.989] Your truth unveils with time
[05:48.815] As you embark on a journey
[05:50.989] Of what it takes to be a woman
