Hitaji La moyo

kama ajali ulikuja

Moyoni mwangu ukatua

Nikashindwa jizuia

Pendo langu nikakupa

Nikadhani nimepata

Mwandani wa kunifaa

Kumbe we ni shubiri

Uchungu wanipatia

Bila huruma waumiza

Ndani ya pendo hilo

Kwako mtumwa nikawa

Kwangu Ukawa mtwana

Mkali usiye huruma

Siku dakika pia saa

Bila kuchoka bila kusita

Kila huduma nilikupatia

Kwa sasa nimechoka

Njia yangu ninaenda

Asante kwa kunitesa

Moyo wangu kuuchoma

Mbali na mboni yako

Mbali na mateso yako

Sasa huru nimepata

Hitaji la moyo wangu

Moyo wangu utacheka

The Road I Must Take

Deep in your long slumber

Alone you are leaving me

All my life I’ve stayed beside you

All the time I’m used to be with you

Now I’m torn away from you

In this lonely road I don’t have a clue

In this rough road my car is breaking

The water jar that I carry is now leaking

Life and Love seems to be against me

All angels have turned their back on me

My journey to pain is now or never

I wish I could close my eyes forever

I wish that forgetting you was faster

So I could live happily ever after

The pain of love has never seem to be fake

Drowning in my sorrows it’s the road I must take

Redemption

I’m wide awake

For long I’ve been lost deep in a long slumber

But now my life is influence by my long hunger

I see all the lands that I’m destined to conquer

I’m no longer sad

I can no longer mourn for what it’s already gone

Sadness is no longer part of me even when I’m alone

The obstacles of life that hinder me are now gone

Riches awaits me

I’m not poor I’ve got everything that was once lost

My life can no longer be controlled by the past

The hunger for success in me will forever last

Control is mine

All enemies that once pulled me down

Are the slaves that in my hands now I own

As all the battles which I’ve fought have been won

Victory is mine

All my dragons in the field have roar

Marching toward victory because I’ve won the war

The world is beneath my feet like it’s my floor

Drowning in my Tears

 Time has passed since my heart you broke

It’s been long time since you left me

Each night I become lonely and weak

Missing your presence missing your kiss

I can’t stop asking myself questions

Asking myself why did you leave me

To face all this loneliness and depression

Asking myself who is with you now

I just wish I could just see you now

But maybe it’s how it was meant be

Me and you are better when we are apart

But it seems more like you are better

Its seems you have move one without me

I just can’t stop thinking of you and me

Everything around me reminds me of you

May be one day I will be redeemed

Saved from the pain that’s destroys me

But until that days comes,

I will endure every pain that caused by you

While you be happy with your life

With my heart Torn away from you

I will suffer with every pass of the time

It’s the path that I will gladly take

For me and for the love’s sake

Without you my future doesn’t seem clear

Forever I keep drowning in my own tears

My High School Crush

Sometime in the past

A young me during my high school time

On top of my tower there came a beautiful dime

A beauty that clearly captured my heart

Her presence easily froze the time

Standing on the longest tower

For no reason I couldn’t help it but stare

Her motion was like the movement of butterflies

Her smile was like the one of an angel in the sky

With the wave of her hand my lips were easily frozen

Trapped in silence not knowing I was falling in love

Satisfied with her sight Like a fool I ignored all the signs

Till I Came to realize when it was too late

She was already gone taken by fate

I wish I could take things in a rush

She now remains as my high school crush
