Mwenda

Culture

listen
to
the
words
I
share...
Life
is
a
journey,
we
take
it
step
by
step...
Three
things
I
learn
this
year,
listen
to
me
now...
[Verse 1] Nothing
can
stay
forever,
my
brother
hear
me
now,
You
suffer
today,
but
tomorrow
you
go
smile
somehow,
No
pain
lasts
forever,
no
rain
stays
for
long,
Today
na
tears,
but
tomorrow
you
go
sing
a
new
song,
Hold
your
head
up
high,
Jah
never
leave
you
alone.
The
sun
sets
in
the
evening
just
to
rise
again,
We
carry
heavy
loads,
but
we
rise
above
the
strain.
[Chorus] Nothing
stays
forever,
nothing
lasts
forever,
oh
yeah,
People
come
and
go,
them
go
leave
you
one
day,
Love
is
just
a
word,
if
the
heart
no
dey
there,
My
brother,
my
sister ,
keep
your
head
up,
you
better
beware.
Nothing
stays
forever,
nothing
lasts
forever,
oh
yeah,
Everything
is
shifting
like
the
wind
in
the
air,
Only
the
truth
remains,
when
the
shadows
disappear,
My
brother,
My
sister
keep
your
head
up,
you
better
beware.
[Verse 2] Be
wise
to
people
who
say
they
love
you,
open
your
eye,
Some
come
with
sweet
talk,
na
sugar-coated
lie,
Some
just
want
to
use
you,
when
they
done
they
go,
Some
just
want
to
take
your
light,
then
leave
you
cold
and
low.
Watch
the
hands
that
shake
yours,
read
the
signs
in
the
dark,
Keep
your
circle
small,
keep
a
guard
upon
your
heart.
Don't
let
the
bitterness
make
a
home
inside
your
soul,
Even
in
the
desert,
you
still
have
to
keep
control.
[Chorus] Nothing
stays
forever,
nothing
lasts
forever,
oh
yeah,
People
come
and
go,
them
go
leave
you
one
day,
Love
is
just
a
word,
if
the
heart
no
dey
there,
My
brother,
keep
your
head
up,
you
better
beware.
Nothing
stays
forever,
nothing
lasts
forever,
oh
yeah,
Everything
is
shifting
like
the
wind
in
the
air,
Only
the
truth
remains,
when
the
shadows
disappear,
My
brother,
my
sister
keep
your
head
up,
you
better
beware.
[Bridge] Seasons
change,
and
the
tides
pull
away,
What
was
once
a
mountain
is
now
dust
in
the
day.
Don't
hold
on
too
tight
to
the
things
you
cannot
keep,
Plant
your
seeds
in
silence,
while
the
world
is
fast
asleep. (
While
the
world
is
fast
asleep)
[Verse 3] So
keep
your
spirit
steady,
keep
your
vision
clear,
Despite
the
heavy
heart,
let
there
be
no
fear.
Life
is
just
a
lesson,
one
that
we
all
must
learn,
For
every
single
candle,
there’
s
a
wax
that
has
to
burn.
Walk
through
the
valley,
keep
your
feet
on
the
ground,
Wisdom
is
the
treasure
that
in
suffering
is
found.
[Chorus] Nothing
stays
forever,
nothing
lasts
forever,
oh
yeah,
People
come
and
go,
them
go
leave
you
one
day,
Love
is
just
a
word,
if
the
heart
no
dey
there,
My
brother,
keep
your
head
up,
you
better
beware.
Nothing
stays
forever,
nothing
lasts
forever,
oh
yeah,
Everything
is
shifting
like
the
wind
in
the
air,
Only
the
truth
remains,
when
the
shadows
disappear,
My
brother,
my
sister
keep
your
head
up,
you
better
beware.
[Outro] Yeah,
nothing
stays
forever...
Just
keep
moving,
my
brother
My
sister
Jah
watch
over
you.
Even
when
the
road
is
lonely,
keep
the
faith...
