  • NWAYE, the 4th single from #Malou Beauvoir's #SPIRITWALKER album, is a cry of revolt and of hope….
    “#NWAYE,” is the Creole version of the French verb “to drown” (noyer). It alludes to the fact that “figuratively, we are getting out of our depth, drowning in all the nonsense we are fed," says Malou. “We call on Erzuli [the spirit of love] to give us hope, help us keep a level head and make the right call.” Reacting to the Haitian Assembly’s proposed restrictions on the LGBT community and to other communities ostracized because of physical appearance, religious beliefs, skin color, etc. her lyrics speak out to people around the world, asking us to “look inside ourselves, recognize injustice and have the courage to speak out..”
    Chorus
    Drowning…we are Drowning (Nwaye nap e Nwaye)
    Erzuli, if you see me sinking beneath the surface…. Lift me up
    Save the children, save the young people
    Help us
    Verse
    What kind of people try and tell you who to love?
    Do they think they are wiser than the gods above who created us?
    . . .
    Why do we believe their lies
    Instead of hearing our brothers’ cries
    For dignity, and hope, and love?
    But I know it’s not too late
    To open up to our fate
    Stand up for what’s right

    And finally see the light
    (Chorus)
    Verse 2
    How can we close our eyes
    to the ignorance and the lies that surround us?
    Like the chains that bound us
    La pluie tombé, Vent ap soufflé, Cay yo kraze
    Nap é Nwayé oh
    But I know that we can change and find a better way
    Stand up for what’s right,
    Oh the time has come to fight…
    “NWAYE”
    (Chorus)
    (Coda)
