Shaa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nimepewa moyo wa kupatana na wewe
Nimepewa huruma najikuta na share na wengi
Ulikosea nikakusamehe ukarudia vilevile
Oh oh oh Ukarudia vilevile
Ukanipa jina mama huruma
Baada ya kusonga mbele narudi nyuma

Naah wala sikushangai nimejifunza na we ndio mfano hai
Kilichoniumiza ni promise za uongo
Naah kumbe ulinilaghai na kunifanya niamini na kufurahi
Kumbe ni maneno tu
promise za uongo

Kosa gani nililofanya mpaka ugomvi unalazimisha
Kila siku usiku na mchana uishi kusema
Nieleze unataka niweje niwe na kitu gani
Au nini kwako nifanye niwe na thamaniiiii uuuuh
Nieleze nini nifanye

Naah wala sikushangai nimejifunza na we ndio mfano hai
Kilichoniumiza ni promise za uongo
Naah kumbe ulinilaghai na kunifanya niamini na kufurahi
Kumbe ni maneno tu
promise za uongo

Mwenzako nimepewa moyo wa kuridhika na wewe
Kwahiyo naomba nielewe nitaenda utakavyo wewe
Ukinipiga it's okey
Ukinitukana vilevile
Nakusamehe nitakusamehe nishakusamehe
Nitavumilia naamini yatapita
Nitakuombea mola uweze jirekebisha

Naah wala sikushangai nimejifunza na we ndio mfano hai
Kilichoniumiza ni promise za uongo
Naah kumbe ulinilaghai na kunifanya niamini na kufurahi
Kumbe ni we ndio promise za uongo
Naah wala sikushangai nimejifunza na we ndio mfano hai
Kilichoniumiza ni promise za uongo
Naah nimekosa amani amani imetoweka nyumbani
Kilichoniumiza ni Promise za uongo
Promise za uongo promise
Promise za uongo promise
Promise promise
Ahadi (promise) za uongo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Shaa's song Promise are about the pain of broken promises and the difficulty of forgiving and moving on. The song's protagonist has been given a heart and mercy, but has found themselves sharing it with many others. Despite forgiving the person who broke their trust, they realize that they have been betrayed once again. They question what they have done wrong to warrant constant fights and requests for clarity. Ultimately, the singer decides to accept that they have been deceived by false promises and will move forward while praying that the person who hurt them will find redemption.


In the first verse, Shaa paints a picture of a person who has been given a new heart, full of love and mercy. However, this generosity is taken for granted as they end up sharing it with other people. They also highlight the pain of being betrayed multiple times by someone who they thought had changed for the better. In the second verse, the singer questions the reason behind their constant fights, and the other person's inability to be clear about their expectations. They plead to understand what they need to do to make things right, but it seems that nothing they do is enough for the other person. In the end, Shaa reminds us that broken promises can cause immense hurt, and it takes time to move forward and heal from the pain.
