Fast
Manasseh from Bujumbura — yessir!
I’m nineteen years but I sing fast — listen here!
I send this song to my father Victor,
Burundi rise, no fear, go bigger!
*(Verse 1)*
Manasseh from Bujumbura, coming hard with the heat,
Microphone on fire when I drop on the beat.
I'm nineteen years but I rap like a vet,
Changing the nation, no regret, no sweat.
I came from the bottom, straight from the street,
Dreams in my chest and truth on my feet.
Burundi, my homeland, I carry you deep,
I rap for the kids who ain’t got food to eat.
Victor, my father, this one is for you,
You gave me courage to always push through.
No backing down, I rise, I run,
Burundi’s new sun — I'm the chosen one!
*(Hook - Repeats)*
Manasseh from Bujumbura — yessir!
I’m nineteen years but I sing fast — listen here!
I send this song to my father Victor,
Burundi rise, no fear, go bigger!
