letra de wega - gerald synik mugwenhi

[intro]
you always said you’re alright
you always said you’re alright
unenge uchingoti uri bho, ipo pakaipa

[verse]
first things first, you gon probably take a picture by a statue
get your pose right swagged up in your tracksuit
and make sure that you’re smiling in the picture
send it in a letter that says i’m fine but i miss you

over the phone they be asking you what the snow like
like yeah its cold but it ain’t nothing like this cold life
trying to make it, a stranger in this nation
chasing permanent status, you camping at immigration
thousand cuts will make you feel like you’ll die
they try to keep it disguised
clutching their bags you see the fear in thеir eyes
a friend arrivеd, long ago, now he acting brand new
he adapted to the cold, yo, he’s not a bad dude
you try to work a machine they looking at you like you stupid
it was different back home how would you know how to use it
but yo, it ain’t nothing, you’re not new to the stress
you keep it to yourself and send that western union text
they celebrate you back home share your snaps with all the relatives
thing about an image is it doesn’t show the negatives
‘mwana washe muranda mumwe’ is what they say
but you came here with a dream and now you gotta find a way
[chorus]
i wonder how you did it, you did it on your own
all the secrets you were keeping we were speaking on the phone
had me dreaming about leaving, i wish that i had known
that your heart doesn’t come with you if you gotta leave your home
i wonder how you did it, you did it on your own
all the secrets you were keeping we were speaking on the phone
had me dreaming about leaving, i wish that i had known
that your heart doesn’t come with you if you gotta leave your home

[verse]
and that loneliness, will creep up on you in them crowded places
when you can’t find a single smile on a thousand faces
and noone to ask if you need a soft loan
so you working 2 jobs just to keep the lights on (2 jobs)
found a church close to your denomination
at least the preach the gospel and they ain’t about the money making
and you discovered a shop with some african food
its overpriced and not as nice, but its gon have to do
on social media, following the posts in the groups
sifting for truth through the rumours of protests and coups
its overwhelming, you feel a little lost and confused
experiencing all the hues of the diaspora blues
meanwhile, you reminisce about a place that just exists
in your memories, thats threatening to fade into mist
everyday you stay changing, for the good or the bad
you dont know, won’t be the same if you ever make it back
[chorus]
i wonder how you did it, you did it on i wonder how you did it
all the secrets you were keeping we were speaking on the phone
had me dreaming about leaving, i wish that i had known
that your heart doesn’t come with you if you gotta leave your home
i wonder how you did it, you did it on your own
all the secrets you were keeping we were speaking on the phone
had me dreaming about leaving, i wish that i had known
that your heart doesn’t come with you if you gotta leave your home

[verse]
3, 2, 1
counting down so you can finally visit
nephews and nieces that you’ve only seen in some pictures
gonna need a lotta cash coz people are unemployed
the leaders became elitist while the country was destroyed
at the mall, stressing about which presents to buy
coz theres a limit to the baggage you can carry when you fly
you crossing off the days, the excitement is rising
and its surprising how the time flew without realising
but now you know your way around even got a few friends
made a lot of money, could have bought a new benz
but your people back home need the dollars you send
your colleagues always wonder why you work and never spend
all they ever see you do is taking selfies by the monuments
your posture different now with confidence from your accomplishments
and obvious you still smiling in the pictures
send em in a letter that says im fine but i miss you
[chorus]
i wonder how you did it, you did it on i wonder how you did it
all the secrets you were keeping we were speaking on the phone
had me dreaming about leaving, i wish that i had known
that your heart doesn’t come with you if you gotta leave your home
i wonder how you did it, you did it on your own
all the secrets you were keeping we were speaking on the phone
had me dreaming about leaving, i wish that i had known
that your heart doesn’t come with you if you gotta leave your home

[outro]

wega wega wega
wakazviita sei
wega wega wega
wakazviita sei
wega wega wega
wakazviita sei
