nemesis fixx – times of war

[intro]

for we don’t fight with flesh
but the spirit and mind
there’s a time for peace
but now it’s time for war

get your weapons ready
let’s go to the battlefield…
(it’s time for war!!!)

[hook x 2 ]

where were you on the day that the war broke out
(the war! )
where were you hiding, seeing others dying
(people dying)
were you a soldier, a parent or a child
(little children)
peace is bullsh-t, when it’s time for war
(it’s time for war)

[verse1 ]

it was deep in the night, our village was sleeping
every home silent in peace, we was dreaming
was staying with ma mother and grandmother
3 sisters, 2 brothers, there was no other

about 3:15, yeah i lost ma sleep
there was feet running outside, somebody crying
woke up from the dream, thought i heard a scream
another person alarming, in a local dialect

abange kekaseera
ensi efuse edwaniro
muduke, buli omu woli
bambi kwata kyolina!
bwoba nga tozirwane
kekasera oduke!

i heard ma brother affirm we shouldn’t overstay
there was chaos in house, much more outside
soon we heard detonations and much firing
i’d never seen the war, yeah i didn’t understand

heard mother talking to somebody outside
they was talking ‘bout soldiers and folks dying
about the need to run away, maybe go to the church
i saw ma big sister cry, i knew it was time to die

[hook x 2 ]

where were you on the day that the war broke out
(the war! )
where were you hiding, seeing others dying
(people dying)
were you a soldier, a parent or a child
(little child)
peace is bullsh-t, when it’s time for war
(it’s time for war)

[verse 2]

grandmother couldn’t come, stayed with ma brother
i heard mother crying low as we left the house
there was no alternative but to leave em behind
we had no transportation means of any kind

used to be very scared of the dark at night
but on the day of the war, even that fear took flight
through banana plantations, avoiding the road
we was running in the dark, there was no looking back

mother did carry me, i was slowing them down
we fell like 3 times, 1 time in a ditch
there was terror in the air, running through graveyards
grenades and aks rumbled everywhere

we did reach the church and there was many of us
the inside was crowded, so we stayed outside
i remember praying hard, sh-t i didn’t understand
little boy crying to god to stay alive

[hook x 2 ]

[verse 3 ]

soon the war came to us, there was no reverse
no other place to hide, only death replied
they were carrying big guns tearing each other
with them rpgs, uzis and aks

there were tanks making the ground shake like earthquake
when i reminisce it all i feel ma heart ache
they were k!lling the men and some boys were shot
some girls were taken away, and others were raped

mother fought so hard to protect us all
we were hiding behind them toilet doors
we had to keep silent, bullets flying about
we had stolen a gun from a dead soldier

an ak-63 weighing 3 kilograms
with about 10-rounds still in the magazine
we ran away with the gun when the morning came
learning to survive, by learning to fight

[hook x 2 ]

[outro]

you should never go to war
if ya nat ready to die
if you gat no ultimate cause
or if you have no power of will

some of us were born warriors
in spiritual and mental wars
we fight for your freedom
and spiritual emanc-p-tion

we give thanks to our mothers
and to all our fathers
who fought for liberation
so we can have a nu nation

the war has no end
but there’s a time for peace
soldiers are born to die
our victory is everlasting

yeah yeah
