 In the song “Love Damini,” by Burnaboy ft Ladysmith Black Mambazo, the artists sing about the desire to be a better person after he realized that he allowed his imperfection and anger to get the better of him.

Burnaboy in being a better person desires to show more unconditional love to people, pay attention to them, support them, and always be there for them when he can, and while they are still alive.

There is a tone of guilt and regret in the artist’s voice. He has ignored as well as given little or no attention to some people till they eventually kicked the bucket.

“Love, Damini,” by Burnaboy ft. Ladysmith Black Mambazo Lyrics Translation.

Burnaboy

Everything be off the top these days

I ain’t write sh#t since my early days

 And inside these veins, my blood, my DNA

 Burna Boy, but I’m Johnny Blaze

 Ayy, yeah, there’s things that I hardly say

 “How you been, mama? How’s your day?”

 I should talk to my granddaddy more before it’s too late

 Listen more to things that Roni says

 Should have been by Buki’s side when her mother died

 Should have talked to Sound Sultan more before he fuckin’ died

 I should show people more love while they still alive

 I should always know the way my people feel inside

 A lot of times, I feel my life’s in a blender

 So, I tell it black-and-white like a panda

 Yes, I agree I’ma start makin’ changes, yeah

 Tryna be a better man, I been tryin’

 I got it all, but I still got my anger

 Been workin’ hard tryna get rid of my anger

 Love, Damini
