about

To the women we come from (literally), to the life they give us. This track flows through one of many stories of women who have had an influence on my life. There is magic in their souls and this is just a celebration of what they were...my bad...are.

lyrics

From Woman
……………
I come from women.
Triple-B-threat women.
Black, Bold, Beautiful
Women who birthed nine, ten, fourteen children
And still had the time and strength for men
Men who stole from, abused and cheated on them

I come from woman

I come from Damara, Oshiwambo, Namibian women
Craved for by colonial beasts

You see these women were phenomenal
No, my bad, they ARE phenomenal
They put food on tables for children
Who’s daddies ran off
Where to?
Who gives a fuck?
But he ran off when reality struck

I come from women who fight for the rights of other women, even if these wome spit it back into their faces.

I come from generations of nappy haired
All tones of brown skinned women
From Ou Lokasie toe Katutura
Women who you don’t dare to interrupt
And women who left their mark

I COME FROM WOMEN!
