Lyrics

[male

vocals] [

Intro] (

Ay,

listen)

Every

story

get

a

lesson,

my

people

From

the

dust

of

Galika

We

speak

the

truth

today

Yeah,

check

it

mwana

wa

Anya

manda

[Verse 1] Zibili

Miskeck,

living

in

the

village

shade

With

Grandma

Tifwengechi,

the

plans

he

made

Found

his

love,

Daphne

Phiri

was

the

name

Zina

lamukazi

wake

But

the

green

smoke,

the

chamba,

sparked

the

flame

kukweba

kwanjila.

Arguments

rising,

tension

in

the

air

The

peace

of

the

home,

he

couldn't

keep

it

there.

They

differ

with

his

wife

She

packed

her

bags,

moved

to

didimu

cottage

later

to

Manyi

school

to

start

Working

as

a

maid,

trying

to

find

a

better

way

[Chorus] Oh,

Zibili,

the

road

is

winding

long

Where

did

the

rhythm

go,

where

did

it

all

go

wrong?

Chasing

shadows

in

the

heat

of

the

sun

Looking

for

a

life

that

has

come

undone

Oh,

Zibili,

seek

the

light

today

Put

the

bitterness

and

the

past

away

[Verse 2] He

went

to

find

her,

heart

heavy

with

the

fight

Words

turned

to

chaos,

he

reached

out

for

a

knife

Police

came

knocking,

the

cell

door

shut

tight

Five

months

in

the

darkness,

losing

all

his

light

No

charge,

just

waiting,

until

his

uncle

stepped

in

mwana

wa

Anya

manda

Galika

Cleared

the

way,

gave

him

a

chance

to

begin

But

the

heart

was

restless,

wakafuma

muthowa

strayed

off

the

line

Stole

a

cow

in

the

valley,

running

out

of

time

[Chorus] Oh,

Zibili,

the

road

is

winding

long

Where

did

the

rhythm

go,

where

did

it

all

go

wrong?

Chasing

shadows

in

the

heat

of

the

sun

Looking

for

a

life

that

has

come

undone

Oh,

Zibili,

seek

the

light

today

Put

the

bitterness

and

the

past

away

[Bridge] Now

Daphne’

s

moved

on,

across

the

border,

far

in

Malawi

got

married

to

a

robbery

While

he

sits

with

Grandma,

trying

to

find

his

soul,

you

see?

Eight

months

in

custody,

the

cycles

they

repeat

Oh

God,

hear

this

prayer,

make

his

path

complete

Let

the

chains

fall

off,

let

the

spirit

be

free

Change

the

man,

Lord,

let

him

finally

be

[Outro] Yeah,

no

more

running,

Zibili

Find

your

peace

in

Manyi,

find

your

home

The

ancestors

watching,

the

road

is

calling

you

back

Change

your

ways,

brother

Change

your

ways,

brother (

Natotela)

Naonga

chomene

chiuta

wamutumbikani

Just

walk

in

the

light

now (

Peace,

ayy)
