[male
vocals] (
Intricate,
cascading
mbira
melodies
layered
with
warm,
sustained
synthesizer
pads) (
Steady,
rhythmic
pulsing)
We
walk
the
path
that
was
laid
by
the
hands
of
those
before
The
journey
is
long
and
the
shadows
are
dancing
on
the
floor
We
never
studied
the
maps
or
the
ways
to
cross
the
deep
But
the
wisdom
of
the
elders
is
the
promise
that
we
keep
It
is
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
in
the
air
That
brought
us
to
this
moment
with
a
soul
beyond
compare
Even
when
the
road
is
rugged
and
the
mountain
looks
so
high
We
find
the
strength
to
carry
on
beneath
the
open
sky
Oh,
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
guide
our
way
From
the
rising
of
the
sun
until
the
closing
of
the
day
We
are
living,
we
are
breathing,
we
are
standing
tall
and
free
With
the
ancestors
beside
us,
a
legacy
for
all
to
see
Yes,
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
guide
our
way
With
every
step
we
take,
we
find
the
light
to
bloom
and
stay
Families
gather
round
the
fire
as
the
stars
begin
to
glow
Stories
of
the
ancient
days
are
the
seeds
that
we
must
sow
We
didn't
go
to
school
for
this,
no
textbooks
on
the
shelf
But
we
learned
to
find
the
power
deep
inside
of
every
self
Life
is
moving,
flowing
like
the
river
to
the
sea
It
is
the
spirit
of
the
people,
it
is
our
true
identity
Though
we
face
the
trials
of
the
modern
world
so
cold
We
hold
the
precious
story
that
the
ages
have
foretold
Oh,
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
guide
our
way
From
the
rising
of
the
sun
until
the
closing
of
the
day
We
are
living,
we
are
breathing,
we
are
standing
tall
and
free
With
the
ancestors
beside
us,
a
legacy
for
all
to
see
Yes,
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
guide
our
way
With
every
step
we
take,
we
find
the
light
to
bloom
and
stay (
Instrumentation
swells,
mbira
keys
becoming
sharper
and
more
rapid)
Keep
the
faith,
Tinashe,
hear
the
rhythm
in
your
heart
We
are
building
up
the
future,
we
are
playing
out
our
part
It
is
written
in
the
silence,
it
is
shouted
in
the
wind
Where
the
human
journey
ends,
the
spirit
world
begins
We
rise!
We
rise!
Like
the
mountain
to
the
clouds!
We
rise!
We
rise!
With
our
courage
spoken
loud!
Oh,
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
guide
our
way
Oh,
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
guide
our
way
From
the
rising
of
the
sun
until
the
closing
of
the
day
We
are
living,
we
are
breathing,
we
are
standing
tall
and
free
With
the
ancestors
beside
us,
a
legacy
for
all
to
see
Yes,
the
grace
of
the
heavens
and
the
spirits
guide
our
way
With
every
step
we
take,
we
find
the
light
to
bloom
and
stay (
Mbira
melodies
fade
slowly
into
sustained
keyboard
chords)
It
is
grace...
It
is
the
ancestors...
Guided
by
the
light...
We
are
still
here. (
Final
resonant
mbira
pluck)
