Bon-Tea: Nkazi Sitimenya Iwe - Studio-Quality AI Music Generator by Tangra AI

[Verse] Street lights flicker on the dusty red road My heart heavy like a bag that I hold Bon-Tea she walked where the shadows grow tall Left me standing by the market wall Sun burns the iron roof, heat in the air She had flowers in her braids, silk in her hair Now the silence is loud where the laughter used to be Only ghosts of the river flowing past me [Pre-Chorus] The drums beat inside my chest like a drum Calling for the seasons that never will come Looking for a sign in the gray morning light Did I lose the spark or just lose the fight [Chorus] Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Why you let the branches break from the tree Sweet like the nectar, bitter like the rain Only your name remains in this pain Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Running through the alleys of my memory Sunlight fades and the stars lose their way Bon-Tea, won't you come back one day [Verse] Old man sitting by the stall with his tea Watching the world move, not looking at me I trace the lines on the palm of my hand Trying to map out a soul in this land She spoke in tongues that the ancestors knew Colors of twilight, indigo blue Maybe I built a castle out of shifting sand Maybe I never truly did understand [Pre-Chorus] The drums beat inside my chest like a drum Calling for the seasons that never will come Looking for a sign in the gray morning light Did I lose the spark or just lose the fight [Chorus] Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Why you let the branches break from the tree Sweet like the nectar, bitter like the rain Only your name remains in this pain Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Running through the alleys of my memory Sunlight fades and the stars lose their way Bon-Tea, won't you come back one day [Chorus] Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Why you let the branches break from the tree Sweet like the nectar, bitter like the rain Only your name remains in this pain Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Running through the alleys of my memory Sunlight fades and the stars lose their way Bon-Tea, won't you come back one day [Chorus] Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Why you let the branches break from the tree Sweet like the nectar, bitter like the rain Only your name remains in this pain Bon-Tea, oh my Bon-Tea Running through the alleys of my memory Sunlight fades and the stars lose their way Bon-Tea, won't you come back one day
