Yep

Like a phoenix may we rise, like the...
Like the sun may we shine like a...

Ah
Yo!

Verse One
Kana mangwana akasasvika
I will not regret this life
'Coz I live, receive and give all that I can give
'Till aeon kana ndafa plant a tree on my grave
I'm for spiritual epiphanies and ultra-mind experience
Chirevo chekuvepo and the presence of a soul
I'm so full of flaws - could never judge another soul
See, we come far, like from kutya vakafa
To learning not to hurt the ones we love
I need a prayer from my pastor
'Coz I done lost my girl and learned forever never last
In God I put my trust, I pray you healing fast
Who dares protest against the lots the gods have cast?
For the sake of my future I’m making peace with my past
Vaida kuti ndingwavhe but I wanted to be smart
I wanted all the things with kids from the upper class
But with all this education still we can’t afford a crust
Like a phoenix may we rise, like the sun may we shine

Oooooh ndicharamba ndichi tryer
Ndicharamba ndichi tryer
Ndicharamba ndichi zama
Oooooh ndicharamba ndichi zama
Ndicharamba ndichi tryer
Ndicharamba ndichi zama...

Bridge
Like a phoenix, we gon rise
Like a phoenix we gon rise

Verse Two
To reach 30 ndichiri mu speya wasn’t my intention
Nothing went wrong but all the roads led to dead end
You see, where I’m from opportunities are few
Mediocrity is cool, and leaders don’t encourage dreams
We went to township schools but the dreams they got bigger
Sharp kid pa K3, bhoo Mr. Skipper
Now ndava emcee, kurira muma speaker
Ndichi spreader revolution, pa Twitter kana Insta
But still we got to be what God said we’d be
We give up not ‘coz we know not what tomorrow brings
We fret not because we haven’t made it. That’s a given
Our worry is if the ones we love will still be existing
‘Coz they genuinely pray day and night to see me shine
So what worth will be their fight if they don’t live to see my light?
I regret the fall apart but probably it’s for the right
Like a phoenix may we rise, like the sun may we shine
