1.	Heroes 02:32	lyrics	buy track
Lyrics in Shona roughly translate to: There are rebels out here. There are those from the elephant totem. Rap lyrics in English: Leaders, believe, you know when we’re together we get em. There are rebels and mighty people who lead, Every day in every struggle in the world that give me cause to believe. Every activist that be activating out in the streets, Advocating for human dignity, disturbing the peace, That comes with ignorance, division and greed And distraction and fear, algorithms overwhelming the feed. Meanwhile, environmentalists make it easier to breathe, And doctors on the front line give us the treatments we need. The unsung, the mighty teachers that’s uplifting the youth. Artists looking into the face of power, speaking the truth. Lawyers representing the struggle pro bono in court, Showing up for all the working folks who cannot afford To buy justice. Beloved siblings, you are never alone. Everyday heroes are amongst out here carrying loads. Rebels and mighty people, leaders, believers, Who know when we’re together there’s nothing that can defeat us With rebels and mighty people, leaders, believers Who know when we’re together, nothing can defeat us. We got this.
2.	Where is Home
3.	Say It
4.	I'll Make it Up To You 02:26	lyrics	buy track
Lyrics in English: Just went out to buy blinds you shot me for nothing. Now everybody’s outside ready to bleed for your skin. No need for murder movies at night the streets are burning. Wherever you are hiding our voice will find where you’ve been. I’ll make it up, I’ll make it up... I’ll make it up, make it up to you…
5.	Pride in Rhythm
