Four Seasons in Marriage (Remix)
A song made by Angoni clearing and Forwarding
(Heavy bass intro, delay on the snare)
Yeah, Professor Edgar Ng'oma speaking
From the heart of the Southern lands, hear the truth now
One people, one spirit, let the wisdom flow
I look at the records, the numbers don't lie
In the days of our fathers, under the big blue sky
They stood through the storm, they stood through the heat
With character building the soil beneath their feet
Now modern emotions, they flicker like a flame
When the seasons turn cold, they quit the whole game
Sixty percent failing, tell me what is the price
When we trade deep wisdom for a roll of the dice
Why divorce? Why divorce? Oh, tell me why?
Are we losing the connection, letting true love die?
It's a season of change, but the roots must hold fast
Build on a foundation that is designed to last
Why divorce? Why divorce? Can't we find a way?
To keep the fire burning through the heat of the day
In the days of the elders, the clan had a hand
They looked for the spirit that would honor the land
Not just the feelings that dance in the head
But the strength of the soul in the words that they said
Now we choose in a hurry, we choose for the thrill
But when the rain starts falling, we haven't the will
To walk through the valley, to climb up the steep
When the promise you made is the promise you keep
(Dub echo effect on guitar)
We ain't looking back to the shadows of old
But we need the fire to keep out the cold
Wisdom is the compass, character the guide
Letting love be the ocean where our spirits reside
Why divorce? Why divorce? Oh, tell me why?
Are we losing the connection, letting true love die?
It's a season of change, but the roots must hold fast
Build on a foundation that is designed to last
Why divorce? Why divorce? Can't we find a way?
To keep the fire burning through the heat of the day
(Horns fading out)
Yeah, build with wisdom, not just the eyes
Professor Ng'oma, the truth never dies
One love, one soul, stay strong in the season
Jah bless the union, Jah bless the reason
(Bass line fades out into silence)
