fundi wa mbao

nimependwa na fundi wa mbao

Hezeh Ndungu ananibamba on Youtube!

Rurumukia-atasijui inamaanisha nini na mini mkyuk.

salimia fundi wa mbao ukipata time.

Psalm 55-Meditation

The Lord says, "All you who are thirsty,
come and drink.
Those of you who do not have money,
come, buy and eat!
Come buy wine and milk.
You don't need money; it will cost you
nothing.
Why spend your money on something that
is not real food?
Why work for something that doesn't
really satisfy you?

You ask me to listen closely to you
and I will eat what is good
I will enjoy the food that satisfies my
soul.

The Lord says, "Your thoughts are not like
my thoughts.
Your ways are not like my ways.
Just as the heavens are higher than the
earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways.
And my thoughts are higher than your
thoughts.

Rain and snow fall from the sky.
They don't return without watering the
ground.
They cause the plants to sprout and grow.
And the plants make seeds for the
farmer.
And from these seeds people have bread
to eat.

The words I say do the same thing.
They will not return to me empty.
They make the things happen that I want
to happen.
They succeed in doing what I send them
to do.

So you will go out with joy.
You will be led out in peace.
The mountains and hills will burst into
song before you.
All the trees in the fields will clap their
hands.
Large cypress trees will grow where
thornbrushes were.
Myrtle trees will grow where weeds
were.
These things will be a reminder of the
Lord's promise.
And this reminder will never be
destroyed."

April 16

Virginia Tech shooting

what led to this sad incident
i'm struggling to find answers
maybe you can tell me
do you want to...
or are you searching for the answers too

i think we all are
if we share how we feel
someone might find a place to heal
this life is a journey
but the more we turn our backs
on each other
the longer we take
to reach our destination.

SORRY

words don't come by easily

saying the right words at the right time
who can master that
things go wrong
and i struggle to hold on
as my world is so small
empty with no room to breathe
is there anything i can give

i cry inside and hide
you seem not to understand
i'm not asking for much
just your trust
its dark and lonely every night
my love just won't go down without a fight

even if we pretend
every act has to come to an end
as we look for a friend
who will never turn us away
or make us feel afraid
we are stuck with who we are
like a rapper without a beat
without you i'm never complete.

May God watch over you

how could someone like you
love someone like me
full of mistakes and insecurity
when you look at my heart
tell me what do you see
that makes you love me so

is it the nails that pierced in your side
or the moment you dropped your head
and you died
for a sinner like me you gave up your life
its time to let you know
Lord I
surrender
i give you
all i am
its not much but i hear you
calling

so here i am
standing in your grace

May God watch over you
and keep you

Whom the son sets free
is free indeed.

love

cont...

i'm torn
between rock and hip hop
a passion so strong

Love

love isn't something i do
its something i need
you can't give me love
for it only comes from above

trapped in a closet
afraid to face a world
that is empty without love
you can't give me what you don't have

emotions run wild
my body still longs
for a girl who is strong
who i can take home
so we can be forever
like the church in Rome

I Can't Pretend

i can't pretend anymore
my life is meaningless
what do i have
except my black self
all i know makes no sense
i might as well be on the cross
for i can't save myself
from this empty meaningless life
those i've tried to love
are no longer close to me
and i'm no longer close to them
i'm miles apart from everything
i used to know
the truth is
people are people
they will use you and abuse you
all we do is think of ourselves
i wish this was a cry for help
but its already too late
you mean nothing to me
and i mean nothing to you
if we actually cared
life would actually be fair.
