In My Head

Tell it to me one more time
Look into my eyes

Africa, I'm writing you a love letter
Hope the message make you feel better
Now we know better, we gon' do better
So you better be a go getter
Holela, holela, wametubeba
Piga kura mi ndiyo game changer
Wacha leo nibadilishe agenda
Leo nicheze kama defender

Haina maana
Kutubeba ufala pesa ni kwa wazee na kazi ni kwa vijana
Niko na madeni bado salo ni same na kila kitu imepanda
Hakunanga mapenzi this side
Poverty narusha missile
So kwa debe tutadecide

In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself
In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself
In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself
In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself

Ayo, I say it as it is mi huwanga sitishiki
Ju topic za ku-address siku hizi si huwa pretty picky (why is that?)
Campaign zinapigwa na pikipiki
We elect you, you get twisted kidogo ndo nyi hamshikiki
Niko na state inaniuma inafaa ni-let go (yes)
Ndo nimejam ka Miguna, I hardly rest, no
Ma boy hawana mbele au nyuma uko mtaani esto
Bado mna spread hizo rumors na manifestos (kwenda)

Sipendi ma leader hawaleti mariba
Self-employment haileti shangwe, KRA wanabisha
Overtax, siku hizi kwa insta hatuseti mapicha
Ni kuji console tuki pretend tuko freshi barida
And it's good to speak facts pia si ni ma-dwanzi
You elect a thief ni ka unapea mwizi maganji
A crook who's ready kuwafanya nyinyi madhambi
Don't blame me nikiconsider ule kasisi wa bangi (haha)

I'm oppressed but mi hucheka though (haha)
It's a façade that I use when lasing these metaphors
Kenyans will only listen to you ukiwaonyesha doh (ah)
And who's to blame for this culture? I guess we'll never know, haha, ayy
I wanna believe you, but why tena? (Why tena?)
You making sense sikatai, walai tena (walai tena)
But si kwa ubaya sioni nikikuwai tena
You straight caping, kwani nini hamjawahi sema?

In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself
In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself
In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself
In my head, I wanna believe ya
But I'm lying to myself

Tell me wetin man go do
Tell me wetin man go do
This time na recognize
Tofauti ya lies and truth
Tofauti ya lies and truth
It's a new generation

Na ma-youth wamesha come through
Youth wamesha come through
Kwa debe tutado true
Tell me wetin man go do
Tell me wetin man go do

Tell it to me one more time
Look into my eyes
Tell it to me one more time
Look into my eyes
