‘Have Mercy’ is a conversation between two people about social progress. Both tackling with the assumption that things get better with time. ‘Have Mercy’ is about the need to interrogate why we’re still fighting for the same rights we did 50 years ago.”
Have Mercy is the first single from Amahla’s...
I’m awake while your dreaming
With your head in your hands
Parting words left repeating
Present day circumstances
Telling tales of legacy
Looking up to the moon
Without wavering you said
Change is coming soon
Don't you wait for me
It's now your time to lead
If we have
If all we have
Is deep regret for taken life
Well then
Patience is our burden
Have mercy
You would have me believing
That I don’t understand
That a soul of a nation
Rests in all of our hands
Asking what you want from me
As we pace round the room
Without wavering I said
What is left to lose?
Don't you wait for me
It's now your time to lead
If we have
If all we have
Is deep regret for taken life
Well then
Patience is our burden
If we have
If all we have
Is deep regret for taken lives
Well then
Patience is our burden, Have mercy
