lirik lagu kevin paris - jabulani (his story)
[verse 1]
my friend, i must say that you have brightened my day
im coming from the north, the great zimbabwe
see now, oh, i refuse to lose my soul
or my love for all its worth as this life unfolds
and so i raise my arms to greet the new day
grateful for this land where i live, where i stay
but blown astray by the winds i must obey
i tell you that my heart is in zimbabwe, zimbabwe
[instrumental]
[verse 2]
you see now, i start my morning with a look into the sky
standing ankle deep, my thoughts arriving with the tide
with each grain of sand that sifts right through my hand
i feel strong love for my own homeland
but wait you see, this life has treated me
as well, most would say, quite unpleasantly
as i pay the fee, to feed my family
you know, my life here is not easy as a refugee
[pre-chorus]
some days id feel so alone
kicked around like an old, small stone
rolling down through the deep unknown
it’s in my bones, deep in my bones
[chorus]
see i’m a refugee, been carried from my homeland
a working man, can see it in the palms of my hands
and i’m holding true, just gotta push on through
you know i’m living this life the best way that i can
again i say, my heart is in zimbabwe
where i grew strong, i lived and i learned
and again i say, my heart is in zimbabwe
but one day you know i will return
[verse 3]
well i’ve been asked, of the things that i can give
so i think of this life that i’ve lived and i’ve lived
and im not sold, by the cold craze for gold
my love, my life is my child i hold
you see now, just one look into her eyes
i, i know that she put the stars in the sky
made the, the rivers flow and the soft winds blow
i’m telling you i love her so
[bridge]
i love her so, oh, i love her so
she gives a smile as the sun dips low
i love her so, oh, i love her so
she keeps my heart strong, wherever i go
[verse 4]
ive seen it all, both the large and small
tough to say i’ve seen my whole world fall
so i say, i rise to convey
i’m grateful for my daughter, our health, and this day
[pre-chorus]
i struggle still, i know
but i have hope of abundant flow
that one day i will take her home
yes, we’ll go home
[chorus]
see i’m a refugee, been carried from my homeland
a working man, can see it in the palms of my hands
and i’m holding true, just gotta push on through
you know i’m living this life the best way that i can
again i say, my heart is in zimbabwe
where i grew strong, i lived and i learned
and again i say, my heart is in zimbabwe
but one day you know i will return
