When The System Has Fallen - Lyrics by Clegg Johnny


Lyrics
Sweat in the heat for days on endwaiting for you to come againto hear the words spill from your lips"the system has fallen"
Mass action on the radiolike a great river ebbs and flowscarrying us to the final closewhen the system has fallen
I know that you are tired and wearyseen too much to believe any morebut we have to keep moving down that long roadif we want to reach that far shore.
Chorus:
We're on our way home to find our freedomand I'm on my way home to find you my friendwhere we can stand in the light of the peopleand breathe life into the land again.
Siyathemba, siyathemba kuwena nkosi
Sizo fika ema khaya
[
We are still hoping and we still believe we wil reach our final destination]
Hey! You! if you dance in the shadowsthe shadows will cover youand paralyse all the hope in your eyesthat you'll need to bring you shining through
Could you believe that I am your brother?could you believe that I am your friend?and although I don't speak the language you speakwe could be closer than you have ever dreamt.
Chorus....
Ngizobeka phansi uku zondana kwami
[I will put down my hatred]
Ngizobeka phansi izenzo zegazi
[I will lay down my acts of revenge]
Ngizoxolelana nezitha zami wemadoda
[I will forgive my enemies]
Sizofika emakhaya
[and will reach our homes]I'm on my way, on my way, on my wayto find you my friend.
