CRYBABY

Crybaby

Two lovers carried by different currents, drift into each other and decide to never drift apart again. 

Lyrics:

Intro:
I had a dream about you babe
We floated through clouds of misty grey
There was a sea of green below,
are we drifters or shall we call this place home?

Verse 1:
Since we met, you've been the realest so refreshing
I feel like I have known you for so long
I can be myself when I'm with you

Rest assured, the feelings mutual I can't ignore
That I'm a better person when I'm with you
Can't imagine myself with someone else

Pre-Chorus:
Come on babygirl let's lose this crowd I've made reservations for two
Tonight's a Friday it's supposed to be boy's night out 
but I think I'd rather kick it with you

Come on babyboy make your move I surrender myself to you
There's chemistry between us I can't explain
My reaction is to stick with you
I think that imma stick with you

Chorus:
I've been waiting for you to come clean 
About your love for me
I love you too!

Verse 2:
You give me butterflies
Sweaty palms when I'm by your side
Make me feel like I've never loved before
My search has come to an end
Your my bestfriend

When we dance
I close my eyes and I breathe you in
Just wanna say that if this is just a dream
Please don't wake me up
Don't wake me up

Prechorus:
Come on babygirl let's lose this crowd..

Chorus:
I've been waiting for you to come clean...

Outro:
I had a dream about you babe..

Chemistry- Tetu Shani X Mayonde (Mike Muema Deep House Remix)

Can love survive betrayal? Samalina is the story of a village girl who betrays her lover for the bright lights and temptations of the city. 

Lyrics:
Pre-Chorus
Who are these unfamiliar faces?
We had love, we had laughter
now it's gone (repeat).

Verse one:
Samalina ever since 
you came from the city I've seen
you are very concerned with other things
behind the curtains of your eyes 
I see the silhouettes of liars haunting me

Samalina ever since you came from the city I've seen
you are very concerned with other things
you have forgotten the ancient word
don't pick up coal or you'll get burned
keep the fire in the fireplace


Pre-Chorus

Chorus:
Samalina ekokoli
Samalina ekokoli
Samalina ekokoli
Samalina (repeat)

What will I do? What will I do? I'll find another one just like you (repeat)

Verse two:
Samalina ever since
you came from the city I've seen 
you don't call, you don't contact me
yet by the sweat of my brow
by my panga and my plow
I bought you a ticket to Nairobi

Samalina ever since 
you came from the city I've seen
you don't call, you don't contact me
I thought your love was heaven sent
so I was hell-bent on being your savior

Pre-Chorus

'Quick!!Bring the best robe & put it on him. Put a ring on his finger & sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf & kill it. Let's have a feast & celebrate. For this son of mine was dead & is alive again; he was lost & is found . 'So they began to celebrate.

3AM Lyrics
I cried so many times about you
I'm sick of soaking sweaters
I nearly lost my mind trying to keep you
I'm sick of reading letters that ain't true that just fuck me up 

And I'm hurtin but I love you babe
Yeah you know that I love you but I'm hurtin and I'm mad
Yeah I'm hurtin but I love you babe
Yeah you know that I love you but I'm hurtin and I'm mad

If I can't get over it, can't get over you
What the hell am I supposed to do?
If I can't get over it, can't get over you
What the hell am I supposed to do?

I don't know what it is about you
That kept me acting stupid
You knew just how to 
Touch me good, love me bad
Fuck around then come back
Tell me I'm the one I'd believe it

And I'm hurtin but I love you babe
Yeah you know that I love you but I'm hurtin and I'm mad
Yeah I'm hurtin but I love you babe
Yeah you know that I love you but I'm hurtin and I'm mad

If I can't get over it, can't get over you
What the hell am I supposed to do?
If I can't get over it, can't get over you
What the hell am I supposed to do?

I'd never do it to you baby I wouldn't do
I'd never do the shit that you did to me back to you
I'd never do it to you baby I wouldn't do
I'd never do the shit that you did to me back to you

Oh no
Fuck that

And I'm hurtin but I love you baby
Yeah you know that I love you but I'm hurtin and I'm mad
Yeah I'm hurtin but I love you baby
Yeah you know that I love you but I'm hurtin and I'm mad

If I can't get over it, can't get over you
What the hell am I supposed to do?
If I can't get over it, can't get over you
What the hell am I supposed to do?
If I can't get over it, can't get over you
What the hell am I supposed to do?
If I can't get over it, can't get over you
Then what the hell am I supposed to do?

Oh no
Never never never never never never
