Paroles et traduction Professor Jay - Mzee

Mzee

Niliacha kazi nifanye mziki wakatabiri nitalost
Wengine wakanishawishi tuloge kuondoa mikosi
Nakomaa na muziki ingawa jua la utosi
Naamini wote tunapita na kamwe &%$$$%#$#
Jina langu lishatumika sana kutajirisha watu
Nyota ndogo walisha sema kuna watu na viatu
Bunduki haiuwi watu ila watu ndo wanaua watu
Dunia kama jalala tazama kwa jicho la tatu
Lisamfire watu wanahusna na wrong fire
Tunawaita watakatifu kumbe ndo mavampire
Yalisemwa mengi dem wangu alipo toroka
Ni fundisho tosha na changamoto kwao wanachoka
Nimepitia mengi mitihani ya kila namna
Ndo maana mi sishangai wakiniita mbeba lawama
Washikaji wengine feki kwenye dili hawakujui
Wanazani kila jogoo akiwika ni asubuhi
Liziki hamuwezi ziba labda mtaichelewesha tu
Mnakesha mnishushe mwenyezi ananipaisha
Kote mlikobana kidume ndo nayusua
Mnanijua nakamua roho za wanga zinaungua
Aah unaehukumu ni wewe mwenyezi mungu naomba unilinde
Kwenye hii vita milele nami nishike mkono nishinde... 2
Walishazusha zusha nimekufa et nimepata ajali
Washindwe na walegee mwenyezi niepushie mbali
Wakasema nina ukimwi kwa kuwa nilikonda ghafla
Wanataka kunizika mzima kabla sijafa
Waliosema nina ngoma wengine tushafukia
Wanaomba nife leo naamini watatangulia
Mama pumzika pema daima tunakulilia
Nabado wanachonga sana but men the king zia
Daima mtaji wangu ni nguvu zangu mwenyewe
Simwamini mtu kamwe najiamini mi mwenyewe
Hata nikinywa maji wanadai nakunywa pombe
Mi sijali i nope them wote wanalizombe
Bado tunapambana kibarua kisiote nyasi
Daima sitawadhuru wale wote walioniasi
Nikikaa kimya msidhani sijasikia sio
Bahati sio kengekewa ni sauti iliyobarikiwa hala!
Aah unaehukumu ni wewe mwenyezi mungu naomba unilinde
Kwenye hii vita milele nami nishike mkono nishinde... 2

Mzee

I predicted I'd lose when I chose music as my career.
Some people tried to convince me to sleep with them to get rid of bad luck.
I'm sticking with music, even though I'm getting old.
I believe we all go through a rough patch and we'll all make it through.
My name has been used by many to make money.
Small stars said there were people with guns.
Guns don't kill people, people kill people.
The world is like a party, look at it with a third eye.
Don't let handsome and bad guys get away with things.
We call them saints but they're actually vampires.
A lot of things were said when my girlfriend left me.
It's a big lesson and a challenge for those who are tired.
I've gone through a lot of difficulties.
That's why I'm not surprised when I'm blamed for other people's mistakes.
Some of my friends were fake, they didn't know about my business.
They think every time a rooster crows, it's morning.
You can't hide the truth. It can only be delayed.
You can work all night to bring me down, but God elevates me.
I'm a boss wherever you gather.
You know I'm killing it, your spirits are burning.
You are the one who judges. God, please protect me.
In this struggle, please hold my hand and let me win... 2
They've spread rumors that I've died or had an accident.
May they fail and perish, God keep them away from me.
They said I have AIDS because I lost weight all of a sudden.
They want to bury me alive before I die.
Some of the people who spread rumors about me being a witch, we've buried them
They wish I could die today, I believe they'll go first.
May you rest in peace, Mom. We always mourn you.
They're still trying their best, but the king is alive.
My strength is my capital.
I don't trust anyone, I have faith in myself.
They think I'm drinking even when I just drink water.
I don't care, they'll all suffer.
We're still fighting, it's a difficult task.
I will never hurt those who betrayed me.
Don't think I don't hear when I keep quiet.
Luck is not a frog's croak, it's a blessed voice, wow!
You are the one who judges. God, please protect me.
In this struggle, please hold my hand and let me win... 2
