Johnny Clegg Tough Enough
LOMHLABA UNZIMA, LOMHLABA [this world is a harsh place, this world] Picture the end of a cycle here's the fire from heaven There's a tired planeet closing down no more news at eleven somewhere the last of a species has died somewhere a child is born when I hold you, I tremble inside can we ride out the storm? Are you tough enough -- can you take the strain? Are you tough enough -- to walk in the burning rain Are you tough enough -- can you take the change? Are you tough enough -- baby just say! Chorus: Into the heart of the human dream into a strange new world remember me under the Tree of Man where I first heard your words gonna make it through, I can feel it What we need is a miracle what we need is some time what we need is an angel of Mercy in this life Are you tough enough -- can you take the heat? Are you tough enough -- to walk in the burning street Are you tough enough -- can you take the change Are you tough enough -- baby just say! Chorus... There's your mama and your papa waving good-bye in the cold moonlight in their eyes the confusion of a world gone by and you hold me tightly as we step out into the morning light and I know you are thinking that for something to be born somthing has to die. Chorus... Vele vele we mama kunjalo [It is true, it's obvious. Mama, it is just as you say].
