About
Pulsing with intricate polyrhythmic percussion and infectious call-and-response singing, this Afrobeat anthem ignites rebellion against corruption and poverty. Bold brass horn riffs explode over funky bass grooves, building to extended improvisational sax solos that channel raw, communal energy. Live-oriented production delivers unpolished West African fire, perfect for dancefloor uprising.
Lyrics
Whispers in the dark Echoes of your lies fading Light inside I'm breaking Can't deny, can't deny Can't deny Every word you spoke Cut deeper than the promise me The world left me in the shade Hands reached for the empty heartbeats Slow and cold shadows pull me under Stories left untold You tore me apart Betrayal in your eyes I'm drowning in the lies I'm drowning in the praise Left in the pain The rise from ashes burning Break these rusty chains You tore me apart Betrayal in your eyes Screaming through the doubting in the lies Fuck your foreign price In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain Life from ashes burning Break these rusty chains In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain Ooh, crumble, fall, decay No light, an endless grave Heart, betrayal in your eyes Screaming through the night And drowning in the lies Fuck your In the pain In the pain In the pain In the pain Right from ashes burning Break these rusty chains Fading screams dissolve Into the silent storm Wounds never heal But outweather the form One breath One fragile spark Defying the endless dark In the pain In the pain In the pain I'm still alive I'm still alive I'm still alive I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking I'm still fucking
