Spoken Word Poetry
Lyrics
Description
[Verse 1]
Aaah. Hey. hi. hello.
Apparently, I can't tell which sounds better of the three words:
Aaaah! Am Shafik Shìrê!
A tourism student at Kampala International University,
for your own information,
my middle name is Confidence, so...
lady, don’t expect me to freeze and shy away in your presence.
Am Confidence, though!!!!!
Hi kinda cold out here and whenever it’s kinda cold I get nervous,
I tend to talk alot; so you will excuse me for that,
it’s because of the coldness am nervous not because of you, and...!
please don’t give me that look, it’s too hot and hard on me,
it like, you are looking straight through me.
Let those eyes of yours give me some privacy!!!
I might have to file a report to police ordering arrest of those yes
for they are looking thoroughly through my secret life!!!
I think my title for the report would be like...
God damn it! She used her eyes intentionally!!!
[Pre-Chorus]
Aaaah, Lynatte, today I wanna come clean about somethings.
I hope those eyes of yours haven’t read all my secrets out of me,
Aaaah...!, I wanna come clean and...!!
I guess you can borrow me some of your precious time!
and am not too late, Am sure you won’t regret it.
[Chorus]
Aaaah. Today morning, I was at my place preparing to be here,
I looked in the dressing mirror and I said to myself that...
"Shire today is the day the Lord has made and..."
if it’s not today, it’s not gonna be tomorrow or any otherday.
For almost every morning I look in the same mirror
as I imagined myself saying these words to you for thousands of days,
I have dreamed of how it is gonna be for multiple nights.
Though am already nervous, I dreamed dearly about this moment,
I have rehearsed these words severally for the recent years of my life
though I am already forgetting some of the sentences
because of that look you are giving me.
"God Damn it! It’s so hot and hard on me!"
But...it’s now or never.
[Verse 2]
Aaaah! You know, I have been to places,
I have travelled to both near and far destinations,
and the truth to be told, I have been having what any person can call
an almost excellent and nearly perfect life at my age.
I have loved and done many and more things,
almost everything I used to dream of in my sleep,
for several weeks, months, years and seasons.
I have tried so hard to live this thing called life exclusively
and...Lynatte, the truth is that it all doesn't make full sense to me.
Surely, it must have been fun but I think I never enjoyed it fully,
because something was missing,
for even on those buses whether inside or outside the country,
my body is always being driven but my mind runs back to missing you.
And for countless days I just have to imagine and wonder
how it feels like to have that look, that smile and that gaze from you,
there were even moments I used to force myself to close my eyes
so that I don’t see new faces new people
because the faces might be many and make me forget about,
the people might be too many and make me forget about missing
the most precious person.
On some days I have to force myself to be an introvert,
I lock myself to my room, tune on music,
block myself from the world and talk to you through those letters.
[Chorus]
Aaaah! And yet for countless days,
I have been in need of saying words that I have kept to myself
for many seasons now.
And Lynatte, I am tired of running away from this truth,
i think its time i face it,
I am done with hiding from this fact that Lynattte, I am in love with you,
the fact that I have been insanely in love with you ever since then,
I am deeply in love with you even at this moment
and...and...I will always be this crazy in love with you tomorrow,
the day after tomorrow, next week, next month
till I can no longer count lift my voice
to say it to you and...and, I know this might be a lot to take in all at the same time
but all I know is that, I love you Lynatte,
I’m foolishly in love with you and I can’t control myself over it...
for I lose all my sense when saying this sentence of being in love with you...
Aaaah, am in love with those intergalactic eyes,
am so much in love with that beautiful smile,
Am in love with not only that but also you as a scintillating person i know,
am even losing myself to deep literature words,
am sorry but as i said it before,
"I lose control when it comes to being in love with you."
For there are days I feel like I cannot live without you
and I guess am ready to continue saying it
that I love you! Over and over again
[Bridge]
till you do something make me stop
coz I have been in need to telling you how I feel for far too long...
I love you...
and Lynatte if love was an exam,
I guess I would be only getting A's,
for every answer I would write,
it would be accompanied with "I love you" as a conclusion to it.
Am in love with you!!!.
[Chorus]
I love you Lynatte, I can’t let it go,
I’m tangled in this feeling,
more than you might ever know.
I’m foolishly in love, a truth I can't deny,
and with every breath I take,
I'm shouting to the sky.
[Outro]
Aaaah... Lynatte... this is me,
standing here, trembling and free,
too cold, too nervous,
but all for you to see,
I love you.
