sifuna umhlaba - sizwe mpofu walsh (vice v) lyrics

[intro]
heh leh leh
awu heh leh leh
ma weh ma

[chorus]
asiboyiki ababantu
sikhokhel’ usolomon mahlangu
sifun’ umhla… sifun’ umhlaba weh ma, weh ma
bakohlakele aba bantu
sikhokhel’ usolomon mahlangu
sifun’ umhla… sifun’ umhlaba weh ma, weh ma

[verse 1]
blood: that’s what this land was built on
they tried to brake us but our spirit’s still strong
(our sprit’s still strong, spirit, spirit’s still strong)
we’ve gotta deceive the deceivers
unspeak what was spoken
awake the awoken
unbreak what was broken
there’s blood on the the streets
i can see there’s blood on the leaves
there’s no peace without justice
and we just wanna be free
believe

[chorus]

[verse 2]
blood: it built this nation
don’t recall our ancestors getting compensation
we’re tired of this exploitation
so if they don’t give it, then we’ve gotta take it (take it)
so tell me what good is freedom of there’s no equality?
what good is liberty where there’s monopoly?
what good is balling in a sea of poverty?
what good is money if we don’t have property?
this marikana-nkandla hypocrisy
making a mockery of our democracy
somebody’s gotta defend the majority
why don’t they defend the majority?
aristocracy built on a robbery
built on nonqawuse’s prophecy
this land is not a commodity
this land is ancient philosophy
this is a nation’s psychology
there’s no more patience for modesty
if the we have all the authority
then, howcome we still act like a colony?

[chorus]

[verse 3: lebo mashile]
“my blood will nourish the tree that will bear the fruits of freedom”
time: chopped from the sun into months
into paper, into guns
like the one in my mouth
their time: a four-hundred-year-old sickness
landless families eat each other seeking shelter beneath the shade of a dead tree
this time, a mother’s army at work
where is the war?
at home

[pre-chorus]
sifuna umhlaba weh mah
sifuna umhlaba… hlaba… hlaba weh ma
yeyi weh ma

[chorus]
