Nomzamo
Look beyond the colour Past the covering on us, to see what we are Turn the faded pages The mark we leave on history, is what we are
Every country is part of us Irrespective of the one where we grew up Yes, you are my sister Though we never shared a home, that's what you are
And your eyes keep shining in the darkness Defying all the chains, that's what you are Home for the homeless, hope for the hopeless Between the lines on your face, I can read Nomzamo, Nomzamo
They of the silk white breast, seemingly proud They are so much more less on the day of the vow Here's a woman who is tired and weary Leading resistance and still laying wreathes
How can we stand by and watch this happen? Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Is this the justice we preach It seems too much to ask for an equal, peaceful living
In a land of screams, stinging tears and broken smiles Following through all extremes 'One who will suffer many trials' Is this a land to inherit?
Crumbs on the table, the segregated people starve With gleeful oppression, the mindless procession Cast nonchalance out of their cars
Somewhere, sometime we pay For the crimes we incessantly do If we believe, that we are what we leave I left a hope, what did you?
Reeling from punches which leave them winded Reeling from laws which should be rescinded now Nomzamo, Nomzamo
