You would have us forget
You would have us make it easier
You would have us regret
You would never say her name
You would have us forget
How the mothers pressure
Freed the sons and daughters
Caught in torture chambers
TALK ABOUT IT!
Yeah we've always been great
For a long time now,
But you always debate
For a long time now,
What a woman should make,
What a woman should take,
But you never ask a woman
WHAT A BASIC MISTAKE
Naona chenye mimi sita do
Ni ku argue na mafala busy body like you
Wale wanafikiria sindiria ni weakness
Ni better ni speak less
Ma actions mu-witness
Keep saying not the right time
You keep telling us not the right time
You keep saying not the right time
You keep telling us not the right time
(hahahaha)
Im my own fix,
Im my own fixer,
Write my own script,
Write my own scripture,
And I'm so sick,
Getting more sicker,
See the whole mix,
See the whole picture,
Getting loud
Geeting louder
Getting loud
Geeting louder
Getting loud,
Getting louder
Getting loud
Getting louder
Power Power Power
Sio ndio power
Watoto wa hawa (eve)
Ndio sisi hawa
This time hatuchoki
This time hatuogopi
Pesa hatukopi
Tena hatusoti
Ngumu kunishika kwanza jenga ka-cv!
Mna pressure ya ku marry but hatu jiski!
Mtabaki mukichecki
Shinda mkidebate-i,
Kwenye ninaget-i
Pesa ya kibeti
This one for the women who came before us
Who built the world for us
Who make it work for us
This one for the women who came before us
Who built the world for us
Who make it work for us
(hahahaha)
Im my own fix,

Getting loud
Geeting louder
Getting loud,
Getting louder
Getting loud

You have never been straight
You keep telling us wait
Then you switch up the date
Tumechoka
Then you tell us we hate
One another, you blame us,
You keep trying to shame us,
To erase us
Ooh
They would have us believe
There is something to big
We could never achieve
Ooh
They would have us believe
There is something to big
We could never receive
