Mpenzi New Year Lyrics Translation – V-Be
V-Be says, ‘I’ve got scars to show for how I didn’t love myself,’ and tells of a vow to meet success. He says the new year brings open doors and light and love.
I’ve Got Scars To Show For How I Didn’t Love MyselfI’ve got scars to show for how I didn’t love myself.
Many Hungry Nights I Spent Alone Cursing MyselfMany hungry nights I spent alone cursing myself.
Always Balancing Tears Afraid Of All My FearsI was always balancing tears, afraid of all my fears.
At Some Point It Got So Dark It’s A Miracle I’m Here This YearAt some point it got so dark, it’s a miracle I’m here this year.
This Year Kuna A Few Things I Am ManifestingThis year, there are a few things I’m manifesting.
Nadai Kuhama Mahali Gloomy Niishi Mahali FestiveI want to move from a gloomy place and live somewhere festive.
Mungu Sikia Kuna Meza Nadai KufikiaGod, please hear me, there’s a table I’m trying to reach.
Na Ni Wewe Ndio Utaiandaa Maombi Ndio Menu UtanipikiaAnd you’re the one who’ll prepare it, with prayers as the menu you’ll cook for me.
