TIAHO MAI RA
copyright Lyrics Mihirangi, Music Paddy Free
Tiaho mai i te ao
(Shine, radiate in the world)
O tai rerehua, Waiwaiā!
(Majestic, Stunning in your reflection)
Tiaho mai ra, o tai rerehua, o tai rirerire.
Tiaho mai ra
(Shine this day, Majestic and Colorful, Shine)
Tiaho mai ra, mauri tipua, mauri tawhito.
Tiaho mai ra
(Shine this day, Gifted and Cultural, Shine)
E tipu e rea mo nga raa o to ao.
Kia uru-kahika te tu aa iwi e whanake ai tatou katoa.
(We all win when we grow and learn in this world we live in)
Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, he toa takitini e.
(May we all stand tall in our walk)
E piki, e kake i te toipuhiahurewa e.
Me taangaengae kia moohukihuki kau ake ra...
(And remember it’s the journey and not the destination)

WISE GUY
copyright Mihirangi
Wise guy's got it goin on in his head
sky high in the clouds, but when he falls you'll know he's dead
Identified with his thoughts and his own intellect
flexed the muscles of his mind, he likes to project
Descend from the spell from where you're held and disconnect
jump off the edge in your life if you want to represent
Wise guy got it going on unchecked
coz he can't rectify the conversation goin on in his head
It's in his head - he thinks he's got it, got it going on x 2
That girl got it goin, she's beautiful and blessed
but when she looks in the mirror she's never impressed
her perspectives all flawed from the time that she invests
in the worries of her mind, she's so self-obsessed
She spends all her money on her wine and cigarettes
to forget about her worries, then she regrets
That girls got it goin, she's beautiful and blessed
but her mind is not showing her how to be her best
it's in her head... she thinks she's got it goin, goin on... x 2
It watches the world go by
in tick-tock tick-tock time
it judges how to be hip
"I'm so damn cool you can't touch this"
I want you to like my song
to say that you'll play it and sing along
I want to clap on cue
"coz that's what my fan's will do!”
It's in my head, in my head... it's all in my head
Yeah I got it, I got it going on...
you know I got it got... got it going on...
It's all in my head... repeat...

FEED THE SEEDS
Copyright - Mihirangi
You can’t even call your own ‘your own’
You will fight each other but you can’t stand alone
Act and react, feeding fire to the bureaucrats
Forgiveness is a vision and you can’t look back on love... oh no...
Vision is a vision you’ve got to see the love in them
Allies and enemies they can’t grow from the same tree
If you’ve got bad roots they’ll come and chop you down
They’ll come bulldoze you over
‘cause you can’t stand your ground alone... oh no...
Don’t need tough love
Got to work for easy love
Can’t do the lonely love
Got to be all in love
Don’t look up to your Mother when she tells you “they’re bad”
Don’t look up to your Brother who wants to fight till the last
Don’t look up your Father when he’s angry and mad
Look to the children and tell them “love them all you can”
“You’ve got to love them all you can”....
Don’t need tough love
Got to work for easy love
Can’t do the lonely love
Got to be all in love
Love them love them... tell them that you love them...

Māmā Mihirangi New Zealand

From the foundation of earth-shaking bass lines to intricately layered harmonies, rhythmic ‘ska’ chops, sensuous jazzy riffs & beat boxing – it’s all done with the power of her voice, an incredible vocal range and an exceptional talent for timing, rhythm and dynamic tonality. ... more
