Lyrics For Power By Amanda Black
I believed that I was born for greatness
That I would stand and fight for all my dreams
I never thought my journey would be painless
But I found out life is harder than it seems
See I believed that I found a family
I believed that it would be forever
It seemed as though I found my perfect fit
I wasn’t ready for the storm that came after, yeah
Kwaze kwanzima
Kodwa ixesha liyaphilisa
I’m gonna fight back
Oh
Not gonna give up
Oh
I’m gonna rise up
I’m gonna stand up, yeah
Kwaze kwanzima
Kodwa ixesha liyaphilisa
I’m gonna fight back
Oh
Not gonna give up
Oh
I’m gonna rise up
I’m gonna stand up, yeah
Take back my
Power!
Inside my veins
Power!
Inside my heart
Power!
Inside my veins
Power!
Ngamandla
Ngamandla, oh
Ngamandla, ngaphakathi kwam
Ohhh
Zajiki izinto
You showed me your true colours
Kodwa ndenzeni bo
I just can’t help but wonder
If I deserve all of the pain
If all my sweat was all in vain
Will I survive through all the rain
To see the sun shining again
All I did, all I gave
Wasn’t enough for wena
You got greedy wafuna
Wafuna yonkinto
Told you ndizophumemela
You tried to bury me
I said mazulu vuleka
Right now I’m breaking free
Kwaze kwanzima
Kodwa ixesha liyaphilisa
I’m gonna fight back
Oh
Not gonna give up
Oh
I’m gonna rise up
I’m gonna stand up, yeah oh
Kwaze kwanzima
Kodwa ixesha liyaphilisa
I’m gonna fight back
Oh
Not gonna give up
Oh
I’m gonna rise up
I’m gonna stand up, yeah yeah yeah
Power!
Inside my veins
Power!
Inside my heart
Power!
Inside my veins
Power!
Ngamandla
Ngamandla, oh
Ngamandla, ngaphakathi kwam
Power!
Inside my veins
Power!
Inside my heart
Power!
Inside my veins
Power!
Ngamandla
Ngamandla, oh
Ngamandla, ngaphakathi kwam
Oh Amandla
Oh Amanda
Amandla am
Amandla am
Ngaphakathi kwam
