Pana Njia

[Chorus]
Bada ya dhiki, faraja
Peniyenia pana njia
Bada ya dhiki, faraja

The road is way up
Meaning I′m flying through the pain
Look

[Verse]
My skin complexion is so hard to carry
But I'm so glad that God let me have it
Thank the sky for my roots and my melanin
All is black from my heart to this melody
All is black but the brightness on fire, man
No complaint in that song, that′s empowerment
To my people that don't have the microphone
That's my duty to rise and inspire them
Targets all on our backs and it′s tiring
But the strength is a thing to improve
I mean, life is like too short
Wishing I knew more
Patience is key on that thing that I do for a living
I be Ali, prolly got them bodies crawling right behind me
When I jump on the tempo
Gotta know what the goal is, far from the throne
To know where you going, know where you′re from

[Chorus]
Bada ya dhiki, faraja
Peniyenia pana njia
Bada ya dhiki, faraja
The road is way up (meaning I'm flying, going)
Way up (that′s right, yeah, huh)
Bada ya dhiki, faraja (pana njia)
Peniyenia pana njia (dhiki, faraja)
Bada ya dhiki, faraja
The road is way up (meaning I'm flying, going)
Way up (IXI)

[Verse]
Just push it, man gotta push it
Use your burden to find where your truth is
Si ton triomphe n′est pas encore là, c'est que t′es pas sur ta voie
Prends ton temps pour la trouver
Two step on the kick and the snare and the bass and the drums
Redefining the groovy
Think you got it, you might have to prove it
Just push it, man gotta push it
Sky never been the limit to be honest
Le poids des blessings plus gros que la douleur
Mets du respect sur ma couleur
Check out the size of my scars
Get how we made this far
I got the struggle and the pain in my genes
Musa Is everywhere, we all kings
Go figure what's the goal when far from the throne
To know where you going
Learn where you're from

[Chorus]
Bada ya dhiki, faraja (I need to fly)
Peniyenia pana njia (I need to fly)
Bada ya dhiki, faraja
The road is way up
The goal is (power)
The gold is (way up)
The goal is (power)
The gold is...

Bada ya dhiki, faraja (pana njia)
Peniyenia pana njia (dhiki, faraja)
Bada ya dhiki, faraja
The road is way up
Meaning I′m flying through the blood, sweat, tears
Love, pain, fear

[Outro]
To lingana
To briller
To tikala fort
Obligé
Tokolela mais Nzambe asalaka
On rigolera de tout ça quand on sera là-bas
Way up (way up)
Way up!
