Lyrics Nizlopi – I’m Alive

Text:

Well I can’t stop doing this
If I do it would be fruitless
We’re gonna make roots music
And live rootless

And everyone knows
Doing what’s right in their heart
Is all they wanted to do from the start yeah
Even I know, even I know

Ah its doubling, quality is doubling
Bring my lover in and make me sing
Yeah its doubling, quality is doubling
Bring my lover in and make me sing

Aheyoo
Aheyoo
Aheyoo
I’m alive again

And I’m celebrating the fact that we’re not all built one way
It’s way cool with me if you turn out to be gay
There’s fascists behind different faces today
Some wear suits, some sing hip-hip and reggae

It’s amazing to me how slow progress is
Will the world be more just when I’m singing this to my kids?
Or Will they be like “hey Dad I’ve gotta say
The world’s even more fucked up now than it was in your day”

One more, one more
One more chance for the wildness
One more, one more
Shot at love

Cos there’s something more, there’s something more
We should be living for

Something more than this making money stuff
There’s something more, there’s something more
We should be living for
We should be dying for
