about

Sama Rainbow is a track reflecting of days growing up in Durban on the East coast of South Africa and how it is now . Large waves bursting.through reflecting on issues facing the Rainbow nation because of political corruption and issues . Help save the broken Rainbow one day there will be colours in the Rainbow nation. Looking in from northern shores remembering the monkeys playing in the rain

lyrics

Good old days on the eastern shores large waves bursting through
white clouds block the warming sun waiting for those much needed rains
Politician till playing their games politics still playing their games
Still segregation and pain

Sama Sama Sama Rainbow
Help save the broken Rainbow
No more colours in the Rainbow
buyisa buyisa buyisa uRainbow

New days on the eastern shores no segregation still pain
Hours of dark block the warming sun
Politicians still playing their games politicians still playing their games
African spirits in pain waiting for that colourful rain

Sama Sama Sama Rainbow
Help save the broken Rainbow
No more colours in the Rainbow
Buyisa Buyisa Buyisa uRainbow

Twenty one years in the northern lights twenty one years in the dark
Colourful sounds and the beating drums
See the monkeys playing in the rain see them playing under the colours in the sky waiting for the much needed rain waiting for that much needed rain

Esizweni Sama Rainbow ( to the Rainbow nation)
Esizeni Sama Rainbow ( to the Rainbow nation )
Buyisela inhlabathi ( take back the soil )
Buyisela inhlabathi ( take back the soil )
Give it back to the free
Colours are bursting free

Sama Sama Sama Rainbow
There are colours in the Rainbow
We have saved the broken Rainbow
Buyisa Buyisa Buyisa uRainbow
