Refuge – Pompi

verse 1
they say you better look before you leap
but life often don’t leave a hole for you to peep
we all hoping we not a victim of defeat
caught up in the life cycle
at the bottom of the chain gotta exercise power
conquest is the order of the day
ni tamanga, everybody wants to get paid
ona bana, and another one is on the way
but i am a hustler for us i have been hunting all day
but i wonder, would we still be destiny
if the weight of the world took the best of me
would you look at your ring with disappointment
or would you pick up my arms and come and join in
like a soldier when the days are colder
would i know my tears got a home on your shoulder
would you keep my heart exposed to the vultures
when the enemies approaching

chorus
when the world is too much
and i feel out of touch
can i run to you for refuge babe, naine nima lema
this rock that you see
can not always be
will you be strong for me

verse 2
behind every successful man is a stronger woman
as i am approaching success i am assuming you will be patient
embracing me at the low times
see potential in me even when i got no dimes
would the words tempt you saying you can do better
with emotions all aside you gonna know better
that the man of your dream is actually a dream killer
love is all good but your stomach needs feeling
and you cannot have love for your dinner
sanka waka ngono, see a certified spinner
whats love when i cant keep you warm in the winter
would you boldly reply with your chin up
saying in my defence
you aint making sense don’t lecture me
history says we don’t learn from history
i chose to be different and i learnt from my misery
together through the pain
and together through the victory
that’s a good thing
coss you can’t demand respect in a house that you didn’t lay a brick in
not a cool thing
i got faith in the man so i aint going no where
chorus

verse 3
speaking words that will move me i can depend on you
so tender and soothing i can depend on you
you make me feel better you purify my love for you is a burning fire
speaking words that will move me i can depend on you
so tender and soothing i can depend on you
you make me feel better you purify my love for you is a burning fire
