Don't need no border wars War we no want Don't need no border wars War we no want As I cry out to my fore-fathers and five mothers And the other half of my tribe with nine others Searching on this surface crossing borders seeking covers Switching buses while Im catching evil stares from my brothers We live a complex reality that we been sentenced We been blood ever since before independence The welcome that you giving to me is unexpected I'm perplexed by the delivery within the message like Hey wena mtwana are you a kwerekwere Your accente sound very extraordinary I don't care who your great great grandmother she marry Or if you're from a Mqabuko or even from Entebbe All these border wars We wasn't ready My brother I'm just trying to survive Chete chete I'm coming from a different war where I'm forsaken I thought you'd understand since you living next to nothing But now I see that my presence here got you impatient We family but a distant relative ain't worth saving He saying I'm a threat to his job but I don't blame him But I do For the hatred you harbouring and the slaying I do For the burning of shacks that we both stay in The constant fighting when what we lacking is conversation When you were under pressure yesterday and you gave in My door was always open And that's how its remaining Border wars Xenophobia Running out of Babylon searching for my utopia My brown skin is a different kind of shade And my accent got them asking You from this place When stampedes and shanty towns the case And media brush it off like a cultural exchange From the same race but my brothers looking at me strange Who gave the land these borders Who Somebody explain You Adopted western cultures oppressed us and became Enslaved, meanwhile ubuntu's the thing that we forsake Blaming our conditions, but not the cause Who stands to benefit when we get in these border wars Chaos is opportunity Divide and conquer all Between jail and country the difference is the texture of the walls They gave us independence Illusions that we free And made us proud nationals that shun diversity Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon Dai matiisawo parinani Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon Dai matiisawo parinani Tinogarireiko Pasina wekutamba naye Tinogarireiko Kufira kurarama here Tinogarireiko Pasina wekutamba naye Tinogarireiko Kufira kurarama here Shadows of the city stood colossal over dwellers Rumours of an omen being blown by vuvuzelas Tryna knock the foreign tone so when I construct a sentence I feel as if I even mock my own on this premise Xenophobia! What an ugly name in a place Where we can enjoy the beautiful diversity of race I look and feel foreign walking at a different pace In a cloud of fear and hate I disappear without a track Into a dark space, consumed by desire to escape The sad African fate of genocide and rape I hate to see the burning man but just rewind the tape Look at what we're doing to ourselves!! Wait! One people divided from Cairo to the Cape How does Africa maintain the beauty of her shape When human blood is flowing in her rivers and her lakes We're falling for the system! We're making a mistake Awake! Africa Awake Awake! Africa Awake Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon Dai matiisawo parinani Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon Dai matiisawo parinani Tinogarireiko Pasina wekutamba naye Tinogarireiko Kufira kurarama here Tinogarireiko Pasina wekutamba naye Tinogarireiko Kufira kurarama here Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon Dai matiisawo parinani Tinosvimha misodzi mubabylon Hupenyu ndewe njodzi mubabylon Vanotitsika konzi mubabylon Dai matiisawo parinani Tinogarireiko Pasina wekutamba naye Tinogarireiko Kufira kurarama here Tinogarireiko Pasina wekutamba naye Tinogarireiko Kufira kurarama here Don't need a border war War we no want
