I have my scars, you have yours
– Ndinezikrelemnqa zam, unazo
Don’t let them take your power
– Ungawavumeli ukuba athathe amandla akhe
Don’t leave it alone in the final hours
– Musa ukushiya yodwa kwiiyure zokugqibela
They’ll take your soul, they’ll take your power
– Baya kuthatha umphefumlo wakho, baya kuthatha amandla akho
Don’t close your eyes and hope for the best
– Sukuvala amehlo akho kwaye ulindele okona kulungileyo
The dark is out there, the light is going fast
– Ubumnyama buphuma apho, ukukhanya kuhamba ngokukhawuleza
Until the final hours, your life’s forever changed
– Kude kube ziiyure zokugqibela, ubomi bakho butshintshile ngonaphakade
And all the rights that you had yesterday
– Kwaye onke amalungelo onawo izolo
Are taken away
– Basuswe
And now you’re afraid
– Kwaye ngoku woyika
You should be afraid
– Kufuneka woyike
Should be afraid
– Kufuneka woyike
Because everything I fought for
– Kuba yonke into endiyilweleyo
Long ago in a dream is gone
– Iphupha kudala lihambile
Someone said the dream is not over
– Omnye umntu wathi iphupha alipheli
The dream has just begun, or
– Iphupha lisandula ukuqalisa, okanye
Is it a nightmare?
– Ngaba liphupha elibi?
Is it a lasting scar?
– Ngaba sisiva esihlala sihleli?
It is unless you save it and that’s that
– Unless it unless it unless it unless it
Unless you stand up and take it back
– Ngaphandle kokuba uphakamise kwaye ubuyisele
And take it back
– Kwaye uyibuyise
I have my scars, you have yours
– Ndinezikrelemnqa zam, unazo
Don’t let them take your power
– Ungawavumeli ukuba athathe amandla akhe
Don’t leave it alone in the final hours
– Musa ukushiya yodwa kwiiyure zokugqibela
They’ll take your soul, they’ll take your power
– Baya kuthatha umphefumlo wakho, baya kuthatha amandla akho
Unless you stand up and take it back
– Ngaphandle kokuba uphakamise kwaye ubuyisele
Try to see the future and get mad
– Zama ukubona ikamva kwaye ube nomsindo
It’s slipping through your fingers, you don’t have what you had
– Iminwe yakho iyancipha, awunayo into enayo
You don’t have much time to get it back
– Awunaso ixesha lokuyibuyisela
I wanna be the lighthouse
– Ndifuna ukuba lighthouse
Bring all of you together
– Yizani nonke kunye
Bring it out in a song
– Yizise kwingoma
Bring it out in stormy weather
– Yikhuphe kwimozulu enesaqhwithi
Tell them the story
– Baxelele ibali
(Oh) I wanna teach ’em to fight
– Ndifundis ‘ ukulwa
(Oh) I wanna tell ’em this has happened before
– (A) nditsheni oku kuye kwenzeka ngaphambili
(Oh) Don’t let it happen again
– Musa ukuvumela ukuba kwenzeke kwakhona
I have my scars, you have yours
– Ndinezikrelemnqa zam, unazo
Don’t let them take your power
– Ungawavumeli ukuba athathe amandla akhe
Don’t leave it alone in the final hours
– Musa ukushiya yodwa kwiiyure zokugqibela
They’ll take your soul, they’ll take your power
– Baya kuthatha umphefumlo wakho, baya kuthatha amandla akho
Unless you save it and that’s that
– Ngaphandle kokuba uyigcine kwaye yiyo loo nto
Unless you stand up and take it back
– Ngaphandle kokuba uphakamise kwaye ubuyisele
Try to see the future and get mad
– Zama ukubona ikamva kwaye ube nomsindo
It’s slippin’ through your fingers, you don’t have what you had
– Iminwe yakho ayinayo into oyifunayo
You don’t have much time
– Awunalo ixesha elininzi
You gotta get in the game
– Kufuneka ungene kulo mdlalo
You gotta learn how to play
– Kufuneka ufunde indlela yokudlala
You gotta make a change
– Kufuneka wenze utshintsho
You gotta do it today
– Kufuneka uyenze namhlanje
In the midnight hour, they’ll slam the door
– Ezinzulwini zobusuku, baya kutyhoboza ucango
Make you forget what you were fighting for
– Uyilibele lomsebenzisi wakho
Put you back in your place, they’ll shut you down
– Mbuyiseni ndlozi, bayede kuwe
You better learn how to fight, you better say it out loud
– Kungcono ufunde indlela yokulwa, kungcono uyithethe ngokuvakalayo
(Oh)
– (Owu)
(Oh)
– (Owu)
