chale wote Lyrics

Have you seen the lights before?

Have you seen behind the door?

Have you fallen past the stars and history

To see the dormant face of what could have been?

Kayanama ko ma

Kayanama ko he

Kayanama ko ma

Kayanama ko he

Kayanama ko ma

Kayaname ko he

All the eyes, the eyes on me

When I'm walking down the street

Could be admiration or the hate the hate for we

When we're breaking through the system the eyes the eyes on we

When we're breaking through the system the eyes the eyes on me, chale

Chale, chale wote

Chale, chale wote

I'm too colourful for this canvas world full of cogs just turning the machine

Tired of day by day living so mundane

Guess it's black and white that they dream, chale

Chale, chale wote

Chale, chale wote

Don't you get bored of all the quiet and self-repressing routines

They're trapped below but what would I know

I'm just another brother with a 'fro, chale

Chale, chale, chale, chale

Chale, chale, chale, chale

Chale, chale, chale, chale

Chale, chale, chale, chale

Kayanama ko ma

Kayanama ko he

Kayanama ko ma

Kayanama ko he

Kayanama ko ma

Kayanama ko he

Kayanama ko ma

Kayanama ko he

Eh ok amanayak

Am ok amanayak

Eh ok amanayak

Am ok amanayak

Eh ok amanayak

Am ok amanayak

Eh ok amanayak

Am ok amanayak

Chale, chale wote

Chale, chale wote

Chale, chale wote

Chale, chale wote
