Namibia
Where do I fit
Black nor white
By the special pavement I sit
Arms spread out
Words being spat open to doubt
I wanna be seen
I wanna be heard
But you all turn
As I make these walls holding me burn
This aggravating
All encapsulating
Mistaken push of guidance
Making me sit in silence
Causing the gun violence
White is right
The cornerstone that shapes us day and night
But in Namibia
We fear
We stay clear
Holding back from the things that we hold dear
But you speak to me
Words of overcaring
Sensational overthinking
Are you the one winning
The crime is remaining
Shackled by the light that feeds you lies
Keep looking up
And you will see the sky
But the sky is painted colours
Dissolve the matters unclear
The pure wings flutter
You see, you wanna soar to the sky
But when we get there
Our wings are too burnt to fly
So let's change the feathers
Make them metal
And let's fly better
Let's fill them with knowledge
Of who we are
Our root
Our anchors
Are never apart
Remember the soil that molded you
The life and the dunes for us to become true
Because I will stand by the mountains
And scream
From the dunes
Oh, we are born beautiful
Our skin is rich
And I will admit
I'll never depart from it
Cause I don't know where I fit
But my mind is aware
And you all run and stare
Never again will I stand in a corner
Watching the minority
Bringing dishonour in colour
Never again will I deny
My ability to shine
Bringing blinding light to feed your mind
Never again
Will I be untrue
I'll sleep by the mountains
And scream from the dunes
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Say ho
Black nor white
By the special pavement I sit
Arms spread out
Words being spat open to doubt
I wanna be seen
I wanna be heard
But you all turn
As I make these walls holding me burn
This aggravating
All encapsulating
Mistaken push of guidance
Making me sit in silence
Causing the gun violence

The cornerstone that shapes us day and night
