LYRICS: 'Don't Wanna Fight (REMIX)' by Maurice Kirya Ft Enygma

[Verse 1 (Enygma)]

My teacher used to

Beat me with sticks, whenever I freestyled/

Looking like a fish, from Jinja, in denial/

Being challenged cos my talent was never respected/

Is it right, I have to fight, just to be accepted?/

Didn’t expect it except it filled, my heart with pain/

I just wanna build, I am a Uganda crane/

Constructing bars, so many storeys (stories) to be told/

Like Maurice, I had to show courage and be bold (bald)/

Don’t wanna fight, I wanna write, about my rights/

And all the wrongs, what have we left? It isn’t right/

People put in hearses – and Mulago has long queues/

Those are sick lines – they are like my verses/

There are no more nurses, children are defenceless/

Adults wanna fight, people out there pretty senseless/

So I return, to inner sense (innocence), like Maurice Kirya/

Let me chill, for a bit and let the chorus kill ya.

[Chorus (Maurice)]

I’m singing for you today, so I could return to innocence

Onobakub’emiigo, oling’ekyenyanja… I don’t wanna fight, I just wanna sing

Onobakub’emiigo, oling’ekyenyanja… I don’t wanna fight, I just wanna sing

[Verse 2 (Enygma)]

Don’t wanna fight, like Mayweather and Pacquiao/

But if you bring the drama, I’ll never be backing out/

If I got pushed – by the ex-American president/

Punch him in the face cos I never beat around the Bush!/

I don’t wanna fight but I don’t fear your rivalries/

You want a life with beefs and I just want my rice and peas (peace)/

There’s little joy – in being a man, by being mean/

I swear that life was only simple as a little boy!

[Hook]

I was a little boy with many dreams in head

I didn’t know my name, just the guitar in my hand

I wanted to move the world, I wanted to inspire the world

I wanted to be Superman yeah…

(Chorus)

[Verse 3]

Now music is not what I wear, music is not the style of my hair

Music is not who I date, music is not whether up early or late

Music is not fancy cars, bikinis, drack 6 violins and money

Music is a pastor a teacher a mother a healer a mentor a preacher!

(Hook)

(Chorus)

Onobakub’emiigo, oling’ekyenyanja… I don’t wanna fight, I just wanna sing

Onobakub’emiigo, oling’ekyenyanja… I don’t wanna fight, I just wanna sing
