Qkumba Zoo - Cloud eyes



Cloud eyes

picture me tonight

hold me in the waters of your oldest feeling

cloud eyes in the starlight

touch me inside and breathe me in to find your healing

Cloud eyes has a way of drowning even as she breathes

and in her lungs "I am the sea"

she waits until my fear has whispered softly down to sleep and

in her dreams, she swims through me

I'm scared, so you're scared, so what fear has ever mattered anyway?

I'm scared, so you're scared, so what fear has ever mattered, mattered?

Cloud eyes in a silver sky

where the moon flies like a paraglider lost in your mind

cloud eyes on a dream flight

across the moon into the darkside

hold me

touch me

fill me

heal me

let me feel the mist that flows in me

and in your dreams mattered?

I'm scared, so you're scared, so what fear has ever mattered anyway?

Qkumba Zoo - Weeping (Anti-Racism)



I knew a man

Who lived in fear

It was huge, it was angry it was drawing near



Behind his house, a secret place

Was the shadow of the demon he could never face

He built a wall of steel and flame

And men with guns to keep it tame

Then standing back he made it plain

That the nightmare would never ever rise again

But the fear the fire and the guns remained



It doesn't matter now

It's over anyhow

He tells the world that it's sleeping

But as the night came round, I heard its lowly sound

It wasn't roaring, it was weeping



And then one day the neighbors came

They were curious to know about the smoke and flame

They stood around outside the wall

But of course there was nothing to be heard at all

"My friends," he said, "we've reached our goal, The threat is under firm control

As long as peace and order reign

I'll be damned if i can see a reason to explain

Why the fear and the fire and the guns remain"



It doesn't matter now

It's over anyhow

He tells the world that it's sleeping

But as the night came round, I heard its lowly sound

It wasn't roaring, it was weeping



Is there a light, can you feel the light shine ?

I think i've find a way through

(Yes I found a way through)

I know things have changed but the fear remained in me

Till I touched the light in you



It doesn't matter now

It's over anyhow

He tells the world that it's sleeping

But as the night came round, I heard its lowly sound

It wasn't roaring, it was weeping

Qkumba Zoo - "The Fire Inside"



Sitting on the edge of the wishing well

Watching ripples from my tears as they fell

I'm just not good enough

I don't know how to be

I don't know what to say

I don't know how to look

I don't know what I have to give

No more to say

The fire inside reflects in me

Fire inside, I can't see it, I say

The fire inside reflects in me

Blow on it, let it grow, let it grow

I blew, I blew

It starts to glow

The fire grew brighter, I began to see

Shapes in the darkness inside of me

The water said: Dive in, dive in!

I don't know how to swim

The water said:

Dive in, dive down, drink deep, drink deep in me

You will remember how to breathe

I plunged

I drank and sucked the water into my lungs

The words began to come

The fire not quenched burned brighter still

And words came from somewhere

No meanings that my mind knew

But so many meanings from my heart

My body began to dance in a way that I'd never seen anyone dance

And my voice began to chant, chant...

Umbaneyo, umbadayo, umbahena...
