Story behind the song
Kai Lacrosse and Jamal White always wanted to do a song similar to Eminem's Kim so they wrote this song. Jamal wanted to honor his ancestry so he made part of this song in Swahili.
Lyrics
*(Intro - spoken in English)*
Whyd you do it, huh?
After everything I gave you, after everything we built
You just threw it all away?
Hapana, usilie sasa.
Ni kuchelewa kwa hilo.
*(Verse 1 - English)*
Sitting here staring, knuckles white on the wheel,
Heart pounding so loud, I cant even feel.
Your picture on the dash, mocking me still,
Every memorys a knife, every word a kill.
You said you loved me, every vow, every promise,
But you lied, didnt you? Every word dishonest.
I see the truth now, in your little games,
Your sweet little lies burning up in flames.
Found your phone unlocked, saw the texts you sent,
Every words a dagger, my minds bent.
Who is he? Whos the name you called?
Tearing me apart while I gave you it all.
*(Chorus - Swahili)*
Vioo vilivyovunjika vinaonyesha maumivu yangu,
Mapenzi yanageuka chuki, yananiendesha kichaa.
Naona uso wako, lakini yote ni uongo,
Leo ni siku ya wewe kueleza kwa nini.
*(Verse 2 - Swahili)*
Nafika nyumbani, taa zimezimwa, nacheza kimya,
Hatua kwa hatua, siri zinazidi kuongezeka.
Mlango wa mbele uko wazi, ulifikiri nitasahau?
Au ulikuwa umejaa furaha ya majuto?
Nasikia minongono juu, sauti yako hewani,
Ukicheka kama sipo hata.
Hatua za ngazi zinalia chini ya miguu yangu,
Moyo unapiga kasi, mikono imefungwa kwa hasira.
Nafungua mlango kwa teke, hapo mpo wote,
Kama paa mbele ya taa, nimefika mbali hivi.
*(Chorus - English)*
The shattered mirrors reflect my pain,
Love turns to hate, drives me insane.
I see your face, but its all a lie,
Tonights the night you answer why.
*(Bridge - Swahili and English)*
Shut up! Usiseme! Dont even try!
Nini? Unajuta sasa? You want to lie?
Nilikupa kila kitu, roho yangu, jina langu,
Na yote uliyorejesha ni usaliti na aibu.
Divide me and leave me? Hapana, si leo.
This is the end, and now youll know.
*(Verse 3 - English)*
Its over now, theres no going back,
I see red, tunnel vision fades to black.
Tie your hands tight, youll feel what I felt,
Every ounce of heartbreak, every lash dealt.
What? Youre crying now? Wheres the strength you had?
When you tore us apart, when you made me mad?
I didnt ask for this, I didnt choose this path,
But love turned to hate, now feel my wrath.
*(Chorus - Swahili and English)*
Vioo vilivyovunjika vinaonyesha maumivu yangu,
Love turns to hate, drives me insane.
Naona uso wako, lakini yote ni uongo,
Tonights the night you answer why.
*(Outro - spoken in Swahili and English)*
Imeisha sasa.
Huwezi kuniumiza tena.
Its quiet, isnt it?
Ni mimi tu na vioo vilivyovunjika.
