Hook (Diana Samkange) Mavara angu azare ivhu iwe iyeyy yeyaah Mavara angu azare ivhu iwe iyeyy yeyaah Iya hwerendeya yeya yeh (hwerendeya yeya yeh) x4 Verse One (Damien Marcus) My son there are some things that I would love to teach you The things that if you listen I your father will rejoice too You can't be complaining that your president oppress you Yet back home your conduct with your family is abusive Son if you could listen to your father when I speak to – You, I will rejoice and then my heart will delight too You see, truth is always righteous and a lie is evil But lying to yourself my son is even double lethal You say you won’t discuss it so you try avoid the topic Truth is hard to swallow so you'd rather chew the gossip You love to stereotype, you love to say that whites are racists But musoro mako mune pfungwa dziri tribalistic You love to say that people in the South are xenophobic ‘Man to man is gross' you say that’s why you homophobic You see you hate the chichi like Hitler hated Jews Better choose to fear God, you better off evilphobic Hook (Diana Samkange) Mavara angu azare ivhu iwe iyeyy yeyaah Mavara angu azare ivhu iwe iyeyy yeyaah Iya hwerendeya yeya yeh (hwerendeya yeya yeh) x4 Verse Two (Outspoken) I'm a walking contradiction I resemble the hero and the villain The poverty stricken, the image of greed within the system The victor and victim, always harping on my opinion But hardly allowing myself opportunity to listen The vilified, the hunted black African man The femicide committing homophobic sycophant I pick a stance, but bigoted in my advance The gas lighting false flagging is my attack No woman's safe, I objectify what you portray ‘Not all men rape' remains the mantra that I claim My fight it valid, I repeat it, my fight is valid My right to comfort far outweighs how you been challenged My focus myopic but I draw from communal struggles But non-committed to support you and above all I know the difference from what's right and what's wrong But always angle it from the perspective that I come from Hook (Diana Samkange) Mavara angu azare ivhu iwe iyeyy yeyaah Mavara angu azare ivhu iwe iyeyy yeyaah Iya hwerendeya yeya yeh (hwerendeya yeya yeh) x4 Verse Three (Synik) What if the things that we uphold as tradition Conform to an order that was forged in oppression Patriarchal domination, melanated subjugation Religious indoctrination, military occupation An education system built to keep us all sedated We seek equality with those positioned for the apex While stomping those below us, guess we've fallen for the matrix Toppled dictators, when the goal was just replace them Divorced from our essence, with borderline depression Internalised the lie that we're dope from what we purchase Consuming is the purpose, if you’re broke then you’re worthless Condemning those with less as a sort of moral failing Celebrate celebrities, deifying athletes Tobigger mbinga while they steal from what we have to eat Worship the rich who operating where the taxes weak Then judge the poor when they jacking and they packing heat It's contradictory…
