Nairobi (ft. Sheldon Blackman & Ngugi Mugwe) Lyrics

Christafari

This is Kibera
And as the sun sets behind the silhouette of the city
There is a side of Nairobi, Kenya that tourists never see
An ocean of people living in abject poverty
With no running water, sewage or electricity
It's been documented as the largest slum in Africa

There is a place in the heart of the Motherland (Africa)
So many livin' in poverty that I just can't understand
They used to live like kings but now they're slaves to the system
They used to rule as warriors but now they're the victims

Woe Nairobi, woe Nairobi
We're calling the warriors who are fighting for justice
Calling emancipators, come on and help us

Make shift zinc houses, that is where they sleep
Full up of diseases and the stench of the rubbish heap
Civilized people just fighting for the dollar
Surrounded by evil living in a squalour, Nairobi

Woe Nairobi, woe Nairobi
We're calling the warriors who are fighting for justice
Calling emancipators, come on and help us
Woe ya ya, oh ya ya ya

So what you gonna do?
What you gonna do to make a difference?
Utafanya nini? Utafanya nini?
For the situation?

What you gonna do?
What you gonna do to make a difference?
Utafanya nini? Utafanya nini?
To solve this problem

Ooh wele, ooh wele, ooh wele
It starts with you and me
Ooh wele, ooh wele, ooh wele
It starts with you and me

(..)

Woe Nairobi, woe Nairobi
We're calling the warriors who are fighting for justice
Calling emancipators, come on and help us

We're calling the warriors
We're calling emancipators
Oh yes we're calling the freedom fighters
Just come on and help us, oh yeah

So what you gonna do? What you gonna do?
Utafanya nini? Utafanya nini?
So what you gonna do? What you gonna do?
Utafanya nini? Utafanya nini?
To solve this problem

Mola wangu nisaidie (My God, help me!)
Maisha huku Kibich ni magumu (Life in Kibera is hard!)
Tafadhali nisaidie (Please help me!)
Nitafanya nini (What can I do?)
