Pass Me My Specs by Phinix Lyrics
I saw it!
As people swiftly sang about my country, like Taylor I saw it!
No more Politicians endorsing the false promises option
No more Presidents in power that are fathering the nation but then leaving us as orphans
The end of the trend that campaigns come before elections but after the elections 'comes pain’
Bloodshed and violence was a thing of the past, pass me my specs, they're important!
I saw it!
No more campaigning on policies that will never come to fruition
No more igger happy cadres without a care
Telling us that there's more to the peace sign than the index finger here
I saw the desire in me for development as much as serenity
Hoping that when I vote, I won’t just be financing money-power hungry people
Cause as I quote, "there are Zambians raised in poverty!"
I saw it!
I saw it!
But then my alarm clock went off and I woke up
Sweaty palms and heavily breathing I
Finally knew the real reason why
They say Zambians tend to have uneven eyes
Our young eyes are at odds with the frequent lies
The destitute and the wise's minds are institutionalized and I
Am just a Zambian dreaming but wake up from your dream Zambia
Quit sleeping on your own ambition and drive
Quit seeking just enough to survive
You'll never know if and how well you can swim in an ocean until you take a dive,
Peaceful elections are just an equal reflection of who we can be on the inside
My dream is to see my country and its people after 12th August, survive then thrive.
