HH: Promise and Pain
A song made by Extra Large Minded Person
Oh yeah, Jah bless Zambia
Rise up, people, rise up
Easy now, hear the story of the land
In twenty-twenty-one, a new dawn did arrive
President Hakainde Hichilema promised we would thrive
With free education, the children find their way
And forty million Kwacha CDF in the communities today
But the journey is long, the struggle is real
We look at the fields, and we ask how we feel
Oh HH, we see the vision and the strain
But the people on the ground still feel the pain
Through the drought and the dark of the load-shedding night
Zambia is searching for the guiding light
One love, one destiny, we pray for better days
Oh yeah, we hope the sun will clear the haze
The debt is restructured, the macro numbers rise
But the cost of mealie meal brings tears to our eyes
Austerity is heavy, the youth are seeking more
Looking for the jobs from the ceiling to the floor
We need the freedom of the voice, the power to decide
As twenty-twenty-six approaches like the tide
Oh HH, we see the vision and the strain
But the people on the ground still feel the pain
Through the drought and the dark of the load-shedding night
Zambia is searching for the guiding light
One love, one destiny, we pray for better days
Oh yeah, we hope the sun will clear the haze
Jah bless Zambia, keep the peace alive
Through the hard times, we will survive
Easy now, one love
