Dare Me (ft Mukasa)

The song is meant to drift you away from disappointments you encounter in  your daily hassles, relationship and especially when you have that shitty/unlucky day. So take a deep breath, get up, hold your head up high and LET IT BE ROCK!! 

Let it be Rock

This song is about an astronaut/cosmonaut who went to the space during a mission, and due to unexpected miscalculations, he got detached from his spacecraft, leaving him alone, floating in the middle of nowhere. As he could see his home about to disappear from his sight, one could only imagine what sort of thoughts could have passed through his head. Perhaps, the simple fact of knowing that he would die out there without being able to afford a simple burial, or knowing that he could neither be able to leave a last will to his beloved ones, combined with the understandable panic of the moment, as he wastes his last dosages of oxygen are some of the things our minds would only dare to imagine. What kind of fears did he have to face? Fear of the unknown. The fear of knowing that his body will be unreachable for humans. The fear of becoming the "traveler" who would reach the furthest a human would ever reach, leaving everyone and everything behind. That is Msafiri.

It's not about hating a person. it's about hating what's evil, and not just the evil in others, but the evil within ourselves and actively getting rid of it because, evil, even hate, is stupid.

The Hate Song

With everyone on their computers, phones, I-pads, games, and other sorts of gadgets, humanity has come to a point in which it is predominantly composed of slaves of technology... or rather "Sons of Robots"...

When the future of the Earth seemed to be doomed, and everything else seemed to be taken over by technology, a glimmer of hope emerged.

Only a few survivors shall resist and fight back...

Sons of Robots

Lyrics
Pananana, pa pa pananananana
Pa pa panananana
Pananana, pa pa pananananana

I've had enough of your attention
I've had it up to here
And I would answer all your questions
But you're never even here
Do you remember what you told me
You told me stars would fall
That you would get the moon just for me
And that I'd never have to call

But I do, do do do do do do
Yes I do, do do do do do do

Now when I cry it's to the sound of 
Your ever-slamming door
The things you said you smashed because of
The things I never did
But I did
Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yes I did

So find me now or this is it
What you've done I'm over it
But fix these broken doors and things
And at the end of the day I'll say, I still do
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do

Para pa pa pa, para pa pa pa pa parara

I'm tired of picking up the pieces
It looks like you are too
Why don't we both just hit rewind and
See if this is what we want to do
If this is what we really want to do, yeah

Better find me now or this is it
What you've done I'm over it
But fix these broken doors and things
And at the end of the day I'll say

Coz there's nothing here if you're not here, 
But fallen angels in despair
You better find me know while I'm still here
Or at the end of the day I'll say... Eah!

[Goodbye] 
I'll say goodbye
[So long]
yeah yeah
[Goodbye] 
oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
[For how long]
[Goodbye]
yeah

[Guitar Solo]
Goodbye, so long
But how long, is good bye
Goodbye, so long
But how long, is good bye
Goodbye, so long
But how long, is good bye
Goodbye, so long
But how long, is good bye
Goodbye, so long
But how long, is good bye

At The End Of The Day

You are my strength
And I can never wear you out
You lift me up in my times of sadness
You pull me back from fear and doubt
You are my light
But I keep on stuffing in you out
Put you in a box lock you up stick you deep in the ground
Yeah
And I can't help myself
Can't keep you from breaking out
You're the lamb, you're the beast, you're the reigning king
I know you'll take me home

Coz even in the rain, even in the dark
Even as I trek across the valley, the mountain will be mine
Coz even in the rain, even through the pain
Even as they bind me with these chains
I know where I belong

Now that we're on it
Let's bring the dead to life
Find breath within the ashes we can never get enough
Don't get me started

With I can do all things
I'm not broken at the core
I'm just a little bent

There's things you've seen
Things I'd never tell
To think that you'd forgiven me would pull me straight from hell
But through your grace
My sun can shine again
We can face the demons down yes I will face the demons down

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh-oh,oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Remember Me Feat. Rish

She is getting ready to go out tonight, wearing her high hills 'cause she minds he height
Nobody thought she would come to me, nobody thought she would ride with me

She comes to me, she comes
My brain is overwhelmed, and all I wanna say is pasala bien!

First we get loose, like some old blues,
then we go hard like some Rock we heard!
I think she has to work on her choices and leave aside all thos pointless choices

She comes to me, she comes
My brain is overwhelmed and all I wanna say is pasala bien

(Solo)

Pasala bien X 5

I really think she has to work on her choices and leave aside all those pointles choices

She comes to me, she came
My brain is overwhelmed and all I wanna say is pasala bien X 2

Pasala bien X 3

Only a Few Survivors

Pasala Bien

City Of Cool Waters - Extended Version

NITACHANGE

In the city of every tribe where all people bribe.
Indeed, people strive just to stay alive.
Red for blood that's been shed
Bled from heroes never met
Bled for freedom that we were supposed to get

Nitaamka tena, ------------------------------------------------- (I'll rise again)

Nitaamka tena -------------------------------------------------- (I'll rise again)

Same script, different cast
na bado twajikwaa. ------------------------------------------- (and we still stumble)
Ka sikusupport naturn into an outcast, oooh --- (if I don't support you I turn into an outcast)
Neighbours during day turn into enemies at night.
Thayo, Kwe, Muuwo... they freakin' mean the same thing

Nitaamka tena, ------------------------------------------------- (I'll rise again)

Let me hear your war cry!

The song "Nitachange" is there to remind us that we shall not be divided by artificial social constructs and intangible and mental divisions.

Leo ni leo

RASH!! A Swahili Hard Rock band based in Nairobi that has vowed to bring the unique feeling of headbanging Swahili rock to the Modern African Society and the World as a Whole.

Lead Vocalist: Samuel ''Sam" Mwangi
Lead guitarist: Maximiliano "Max" Filardi
Rhythm guitarist: Abed "Abedi" Kariuki
Bassist: Sebastian " Sebas" Filardi
Drummer: Samuel "Gakosh" Gakungu

The band's first official release known as "Darkness and Witchcraft" has been playing on Radio stations around Kenya like XFM. RASH has performed in many gigs like the Rift Valley Festival 2014, Marabout Lounge, Choices, Club Hypnotica, Inyama Thanda, Unchained Voices (in Naivasha), Club Rumors, WARD 7 (at Secrets Lounge) and Mr & Miss USIU, just to name a few.
In 2015 RASH set the 1st of May as the official date for the even more official release of the band's first music video for the song "Let it be Rock". The band does also plan to release their first full length official album later this year, front man Sam turns in as an engaging frontman. This conbined with the outstanding guitar solos by Max, the constant and deep rhythms by Abed (rhythm guitarist) and Sebas (bassist), and the train-like kind of beat by Gakosh (drummer) makes audiences want to listen to them while on a road trip, or at a gig, or while in the shower... In other words, you will want to listen to them anywhere you go to.
Currently, the song Let it be Rock has been trending on the radio stations (especially on 105.5 X-FM).
