We huna huna haya huna huna haya huna haya kutema kwenye ziwa langu na mi sina sina haya mi sina sina haya sina sina haya kuoga kwenye ziwa langu Look at the damage now Sea of famine and drought Anger spilt on the ground A fresh wound A clean cut Cotton on dry blood Scars are the badges now Embroided with battle marks Souls die 1000 times Just so they can win a fight ooh Kwani Damu ni maji ooh maji maji We huna huna haya huna huna haya huna haya kutema kwenye ziwa langu na mi sina sina haya mi sina sina haya sina sina haya kuoga kwenye ziwa langu Castles replaced the clouds Rebuilding strands of trust Faith secured all doubt Beliefs crumbling into dust ooh Kwani Damu ni maji ooh maji maji We huna huna haya huna huna haya huna haya kutema kwenye ziwa langu na mi sina sina haya mi sina sina haya sina sina haya kuoga kwenye ziwa langu

Nomad State - Small Step 03:50

Were dying to know How to climb our way to the summit point And dying to know How to power planes and control the fall They we’re dying to know Would they win the race up above the sky And dying to know As the fuel ran low in the Seas of Peace Our heroes are yearning for taking a leap out in the cold Yet every small step back or forward Doesn’t make the earth spin The sun still keeps time, the moon pulls in tide Keeping it together If anyone saves us, then they need to know we’re willing to learn or dying to know Will the sea be sand and the oil be dust? Be dying to know When the water’s gone and the air wears thin You’ll be dying to know If they’ll carry you to a distant star We’ll be dying to know As we burn our wings when we fly too high And we’ll remember taking a leap out in the cold? That every small step back or forward Doesn’t make the earth spin The sun still keeps time, the moon pulls in tide Keeping it together And every single step we’ve taken Doesn’t make the earth spin The sun still keeps time, the moon pulls in tide Keeping it together If something can save us, it needs to know we’re willing to learn or dying to know

Maureen Malcolm-Gourley - Her Story 04:13
lyrics

Holding the sacred grain carefully in your hands Wondering, telling her story, telling everyone But no one’s listening Contains your life in one small grain shrouded in darkness Finding your way Opening up to a new way of being Stories we are told no longer believing Buried within a difficult place originally held She was silenced for her story that tiny grain waiting to grow no one said, “what would you think now?” sieved out and fallen on barren ground stories we’re told can’t be unheard can’t be unwritten No going back her story was never told buried deep in the grain silo clay figures buried and hidden sieve and shake the story out And relive the time when I drummed into life and I had no idea what I was thirsty for I had no idea that it was buried so deep And I had no idea the secrets I had to keep These secrets are ready to be told ready to be shared but I need to be bold Can’t hide behind this fat coat of shame cos it wasn’t my fault and there’s no one to blame stories we’re told become the broken seeds and the tired lives when their stuck in the mud with no hope of life but there’s always hope there’s always a time where you can free yourself and the feelings sublime It doesn’t really matter how long it takes if its 20 or 50 years of shakes but the important thing is when you are down in the dark it’s the cracks and the scars are what bring you back I never thought that this was for me that I could tell my story because I was so impatient to be free struggling on trying to find a way to express myself every day every day I try every day I give up every day I constantly feel stuck I’ve drawn a line can’t do it anymore I’m very rarely fine I don’t mind sharing I don’t mind telling anyone that will listen I don’t mind telling I don’t mind sharing I cry all the time But the tears are words maybe I’m not ready to say and I’ll save them for another day because now that I’m slowly starting to hear my own voice, I’m loving it and telling it you do have a choice you’ve always got a choice even if you don’t believe me trust me I’m telling my story finally now But I’m beginning to wonder beginning to wonder wonder how

Jason Sweeney - Somewhere in the Stars 03:15
lyrics

Ordinary time in 79, A peaceful day in the countryside, Looking around everything was alright, Hindsight should have Said walk away, From the silhouette, I saw that day, I didn't think id be in a fight, What we're looking for is a million miles away, from where we all are, What we're looking for is where all the answers lay somewhere in the stars. They came at me in such a rush, I didn't have time to think that much, standing there with nowhere to hide, I was thrown around pushed and pulled, Frozen not knowing, what to do, through it, all Lara was right by my side, What we're looking for is a million miles away, from where we all are, What we're looking for is where all the answers lay somewhere in the stars.

William, George and Nick Cousins around the table William, George and Nick Victorian family fable Every story has a start This Powder keg took a spark The Archduke and his pregnant wife A rebel teen that took their lives This Family Feud it burned so far Engulfed the world. Left it scarred This Family Feud it burned so far Engulfed our world. Left it scarred Men, women, just kids conscripted to the fight Trenches in no mans land Million of souls into the light This Family Feud it burned so far Engulfed the world. Left it scarred This Family Feud it burned so far Engulfed our world. Left it scarred William, George and Nick Family from a fable ```````Victoria’s stable William, George and Nick Exiled, renamed and dead.

Alix Apples and Callum McIlwaine - Turpentine 02:37
lyrics

Yellow walls in a French town Nine long weeks too much for Turpentine to breakdown Strokes to bold to ignore Lead confusion uric rift In a passioned desperate... Mountain landscape in violet Red intones the fate they met Tiny travellers search of unknown Though they try passion dries even though The paint's still... In flat tints with a course brush Faded red broken floor Obsessive genius lust Vague instinct overborne In a passioned desperate shift Lead confusion uric... Fever work felt a century Chaos crawls through the cracks that he Covered quick in a sunflower smile Though they try passion dries even though The paint's still wet Had not faintest suspicion When at the door a gentleman Surprised me, promised I'd flee To Paris before man could wake In case my vision devastate His prosperity, mine additionally Had not an inclination That of my own composition He affected me so hopelessly As I reflect on my own In much a novice quiet home I'll confide he also taught me Painted petals as a gift In a passioned desperate shift I shan't ask you lend me your ear Lest it's wrapped in paper, a souvenir Are we not all mad? Such a human trait Though they tried passion dried even though The paint's still... Yellow walls in a French town Nine long weeks too much for Turpentine to breakdown Strokes to bold to ignore

Buried in water, bound by the trees secretly watching, ghosting me Singing rock a bye baby, in a cradle so high Tell your mama you love her, then kiss her goodbye I dont mind if I die today I dont mind if there's nothing left I lie still and pretend I dont there I dont mind if you ruin me Forcing my hand, breaking me down Foolishly trusting, wants not around And when the wind blows and the bow starts to crack Ill say I was with you and we'll make a pact I dont mind if I die today I dont mind if there's nothing left I lie still and pretend I dont there I dont mind if you ruin me And when the bow breaks, and then Ill take the fall No secret too wild, no man too tall I dont mind if I die today I dont mind if there's nothing left I lie still and pretend I dont there I dont mind if you ruin me

In 1939, sea legs still to grow So many things in the unknown German born and raised in a battle not his own History in the makes far from home Uh oh, ship's going down my friend Uh oh, on Bismarck he began The waves can try to pull him in Take a life, but they won't win against Unsinkable Thousand souls astray, river down their throats Defected to the man who keeps him afloat Uh oh, ship's going down again Uh oh, a Cossak sailor man The waves can try to pull him in To take a life, but they won't win against Unsinkable Overboard, under fire Angry but quite unharmed Guess third time ain't always the charm Uh oh, ship went down again Uh oh, Ark Royal was the end The waves they tried to pull him in To take a life, but they won't win against Unsinkable Sam
