panik the storyteller - 11 sep 1977 lyrics
[intro]
it’s just the guitar? okay
ooh steve biko is gone
ooh steve biko is gone
[verse 1]
now this is crime against humanity (humanity)
we need steve biko just to set us free ( to set us free)
from our minds
with open eyes, clear vision but we blind
can’t see ourselves as better people, better human beings
i’m a kaffer, or a negro or a black thing
b+tch i’m a black man from africa, the mother land
and we won’t stop fighting til you crackers understand
that we demand freedom not this fake illusion
my people thinking that we winning but we really loosing
for 20 years we’ve been drown in this lake of confusion
you might be zulu, or venda but we bantu people
[hook]
steve biko’s gone
no proper tribute but i had to write this song
a born leader but you left us all alone
left us all alone
oh steve biko’s gone
no proper tribute but i had to write this song
a born leader but you left us all alone
left us all alone
ooh steve biko is gone
[verse 2]
i’m black and i’m proud, and i say it all loud
to my people on the ground i hope one day you’ll hear the sound
and know salvation is coming
a new steve biko is coming
throw your teargas, or dogs boy i won’t be running
i’ll stand tall like a tree, til the day i’m finally free
so my people could see
that fear don’t live in me
that fear don’t live in we
’cause we are black people
and we are one
a new steve biko is yet to come
in this country called azania my people baya thandana
f+ck what tongue you speak siya fana
small minded uya sala
we are bantu people
you might be xhosa or pedi, but we are bantu people
we are one!
[hook]
steve biko’s gone
no proper tribute but i had to write this song
a born leader but you left us all alone
left us all alone
oh steve biko’s gone
no proper tribute but i had to write this song
a born leader but you left us all alone
left us all alone
oh steve biko is gone
[bridge]
say i’m black and proud and i say it all loud
(i’m black and proud and i say it all loud)
say i’m black and proud and i say it all loud
(i’m black and proud and i say it all loud)
i’m black and proud and i say it all loud
to my people on the ground i hope one day you’ll hear the sound
i know salvation is coming
a new steve biko is coming
a new steve biko is coming
[chorus]
i said i need a new hero, i need a new hero
tell em that, i need a new hero, i need a new hero
i need a new hero, i need a new hero
i need a new hero, i need a new hero
i need a new hero, steve biko is gone
