Zulile speaking kotomisi as not macghillie, Rotterdam 2011

I am that kotomisi that comes and goes

Rauw handel, dat ben ik doch, dat ben ik doch. (Mieser Handel, das bin ich doch, das bin ich doch)

kotomisi, camouflage for run away tracks,

raw handel

terug, stuitend, terug in mijn cultuur (zurück, empörend, zurück in meiner kultur)

nu, ik will het nu, (ich will es jetzt)

je hebt mijn kleur losgemaakt, (du hast meine farbe entfesselt)

nu ben ik kleurrijk (nun bin ich knallbunt)

mijn naam is kotomisi

kot, kot, kot, kot

kot, kot,

faya stong to no bron mi so, no bron mi so – (Hot stone (i.e. penis of slave master), please don't burn me, don't burn me)

kot, kot, kotomisi

koto, koto-misi, talking

hmmmm

tan, tan tiri a non, Tan tiri a non don (reden ist silber, schweigen ist gold)

Tan tiri a non don

kotomisi talking, from far lands

faya stong to no bron mi so, no bron mi so

the free, the free and I

this, this, this mental abondance called slavery

slavernij

still you ask me where what and how comes

encase you, throw down my way of thinking


so what you ask me, hmmm?

you really want to know?

so wha-, so wha-, so wha-, so what?

you re just asking to to see, to find the kotomisi dread lines?

a lonti kon dansi (lasst uns im kreis tanzen)

I am still tracked, tracked, tracked

at the bottom of communities backs

I am bigger than men, bigger than men

that woman that is camouflaged

when we run away in the forest landscape

you cant see I am

I am that kotomisi that comes and goes

Rauw handel, dat ben ik toch, dat ben ik toch. (Mieser Handel, das bin ich doch,

das bin ich doch)

faya stong to no bron mi so, no bron mi so

kotomisi, camouflage for run away tracks,

raw handel

terug, stuitend, terug in mijn cultuur (zurück, empörend, zurück in meiner kultur)

nu, ik will het nu, (ich will es jetzt)

je hebt mijn kleur losgemaakt, (du hast meine farbe entfesselt)

nu ben ik kleurrijk (nun bin ich knallbunt)

ik ben terug, ik ben terug (ich bin zurück)

when I want a green, when I want a blue, when I want a yellow, it`s, it`s coded

and the coded, the coded language is just for you, me, I

no, no, not you, you are excluded in this

but that is alright, because I was exluded long, long, long time ago

en nu ben ik terug

mijn naam is
