Sheria by Sarabi Band Feat. Juliani

- Fuata Sheria is about the state of Kenya's politics and of the failure of Kenya's citizens to take responsibility for their contribution to the corrupt status quo.
The song is a call on Kenyans to retrospect and judge, not just the political leaders, but to judge themselves as well, and to 'fuata sheria' , to respect the rule of law.
The song was written after Boniface Mwangi shared a list of the scandals in Kenya's politics from the last 50 years with George Nderitu, the Sarabi Band Manager. They discovered that one consistent thing on that list of scandals was a Government- appointed commission of inquiry.
Together they invited Juliani to collaborate on a song.
The song looks back at the maize scandal, the missing free primary education money, the Kazi kwa Vijana scandal and many others.
But the song also blames the mwananchi for accepting bribes and bribing when it is convenient to do so.
In his signature voice, towards the end of the song, Juliani says that the tears of the perpetrators has drowned the blood of the victims, in reference to the post election violence. He also mocks the commission of enquiries formed over the years by saying that they take the commission but do not tell the truth.
Finally, in regard to Westgate and in a unity call, Juliani says, ' You are not my tribe, but you are my blood type. But it doesn't have to take a tragedy to know that'.

THE LYRICS:
---
Verse 1:
Nalipa tax na hata siwezi afford kupanda taxi
Kwa banki sina kakitu siwezi afford hata shati
Maji naywa ya kanjo, yako ya chupa za mapambo
Nalipia mtoto wako elimu ya bure ya juu
Unanipa ya bure lakini ya uduu
Pre- Chorus:
So nitapata wapi majibu ya maswali, Mahindi ilienda wapi
Pia shilingi ya shule za msingi, Paulo mtume mbona jela usimtume
Lazima abuniwe tume
Lazima abuniwe tume
Verse 2:
Mabenz ndizo hali, Ma-Passat tulificha kwa kabati
Kazi kwa vijana, Pesa kwa wazee
Tulimangamanga hadi za ma-dead, I say
Lazima abuniwe tume
Lazima abuniwe tume
Chorus:
Sheria oaa,
Sheria, Sheria
Fuata Sheria
Sheria wo wo,
Sheria ye ye
Fuata Sheria
Sheria ee ee,
Sheria wo wo
Fuata Sheria
Sheria
Verse 3:
Pia wewe mwananchi, tabia zako ziko chini
Unapenda kulipa hongo na kutumia njia za uongo
Una mipango na hata watoto wa kando, haujui hata majina yao
Kura yako, uliuza, maini figo ukakulia hadi dini
Kisha wasema tukudhamini
Na wewe hapo, hauaminiki
Na wewe hapo, haupangiki
Juliani Rap:
Wapi Kidero when you need to slap somebody
Complain ufisadi kwani ulidhani
Tshirt 50 bob leso siku ya campaign ilikuwa free
Ni five year loan investment utalipa akiingia parliament
We are one, ama ni we are wanaaa. Utumishi kwa wote
Utu missing, CCTV, we were watching
Ratio ya insecurity na job opportunities
Ni kama mti ya kibiriti. Side moja heavy
Usiniambie Kenya kuna umaskini
Kwani hizi fat fingers zinaibia nani?
Ma scandal ina threaten our survival
Media define leadership na sura ukieka frontpage ina improve readership
Ambia wasee wa twitter wa-hashtag hii
Ama harsh reality doesnt make a good TT
Commission of inquiry, wanakula commission bila kutupa ukweli
Ni kubaya mpaka kukiwa kuzuri unashindwa nini mbaya?
Machozi ya perpetrator inaweza dilute damu ya victim ilimwagika
After all is said and done, all will be said nothing will be done.
You are not my tribe, but you are my blood type
Lakini it doesn't have to take tragedy to know that
Chorus:
Sheria oaa,
Sheria, Sheria
Fuata Sheria
Sheria wo wo,
Sheria ye ye
Fuata Sheria
Sheria ee ee,
Sheria wo wo
Fuata Sheria
Sheria
"Pia wewe mwananchi, tabia zako ziko chini
Unapenda kulipa hongo na kutumia njia za uongo" This is deep!
very Strong 👌👌
who's listening in 2019...? great message
Before Kaka's Wajinga Nyinyi, there was this gem! Media should be playing this kind of songs in auto-replay especially in election year. We need a revolution in Kenya. And whatever happened to Juliani?
R.I.P Olwenya…
Still a classic during this election period in 2022.
People tend to forget.
This is 2019... and am litsening to this song for the first time. I litsen to lots of underground tracks bit i cant recall litsening to this.
A brilliant song. Kudos to all the team.
true I heard it in janjaruka
After listening to wajinga nyinyi had to come back nisikie how many times tunaonywa hatuonyeki
Looked for this song after watching janjaruka...this song is digging dip...people need to hear this song again...every kenyan
Awsome. Paints a real picture about where we really are. Kenya at 50 means we are yet to move...
Mandela the Kenyan Fela Kuti..you could decide to make money by producing songs that lack consciousness..this is a deliberate attempt and thirst to make a difference in life and that is a mark of great human and a hero.I salute you Mandela and Sarabi band..Julius Owino big up yourself and God bless.Keep up the good job,I see hand of God in you.
Songs with messages other than women and partying ... Good stuff!!
Juliani has been at it for a long time 👁️
Jimmie Eddie I can see you bro........Human activist go big bro
5:40 machozi ya perpetrator haiwezi dilute damu ya victims
Deep music that will never surface on your TV screens
It's an emotional songs.. I pray Africa will one day grow away from this rot
mpaka kukiwa luzuri unashindwa nini mbaya...machozi ya perpetrator inaeza dilute damu ya victim..this song will never die..
Wapi Kidero when you need to slap somebody!!!😁😁😁
This is the stuff we need to listen to and watch. Conscience music! Everything is well done. The simple fact that I get to listen to this masterpiece after 3 years worries me though.
👍Chune! Educative too 🇰🇪
This should be played every morning kwa radio hadi watu watii
WOOOWWW Goose bums time to stand up.get up stand up . stand up for ur rites.🔊 👫👬👭👣✌💪
I felt it when I saw Mains njenga and kamlesh pattni hug and they both have churches
nice song...good starting point when we point out the wrongs ailing our society..I like the part it says ''ni kubaya mbaka kukiwa kzuri unashindwa nini mbaya...............after all is said and done,all will be said nothing will be done''...Juliani never disappoints.
#KenyaAt50 is #SickAt50! We are #HungryAt50 juu tumejaa #UshenziAt50!
...damn!! juliani,u are not my tribe but u are my blood type..
Now, Kenya. Watch. This is real music. Such music opens people's eyes! Asante sana!
Stumbled on this after Janjaruka series... the best songs never get airplay... you have to find them but after you do they are worth the trouble....This is to the radio stations sample the best a few times a day
who is here this 2017 eletion year..this is a true story about Kenyan life,
"Commission of inquiry,wanakula commission bila kutupa ukweli. Nikubayaaaaa..." This is deep staff@juliani
Nathinks Police system ya sai inafakuskiza this song based on what inahappen JKUAT n society zetu
Great Song. It does no harm kufuata Sheria. But only wanyonge hawana haki...
nice song I feel like crying when I here this music
.TRUTH IS WHAT WILL KENYA FORWARD ....great song ....thumbs up
I don't understand why someone would give a thumbs down for this awesome composition......sielewii
The song speaks about the life we live in hakuna shortcut hata kwa life let’s learn to follow the proses no matter what baadae ukivuna matunda ya uzalendo u will be so happy
maaaddd!!!! video kenyans lets follow sheria then forces who don't follow the sheria follow one nation, one voice, top world economy all start with me and you doing the right thing
Massage hipo, masikio yakusikia ndiyo hamna
kura yako uliuza maini figo ukakulia!! why isn't this on our radios?
More grease to the elbow Mandela, we salute you buddy! Tumetoka mbali na bado!!

This song man its just off the hook, sarabi band keep up the good vibe.
Am out off words. This video basically shows whats happens on daily basis to most kenyans and the lyrics are point on.................... Hats off.
Wish all kenyans can watch this and think before voting
I mean think for the life of tomorrow and the future of our kids
SURPRISE WATCHING THIS ON JULY 2024, ALSO Janjaruka. HAVE PEOPLE CHANGED? OF COURSE WORSE. 😭😭
2019 we still here.This particular song and many more of this kind of narrative are underrated... But #wajinga nyinyi is a here,another wake up call,an eye opener to Kenyans and east Africa at large.We are one,Let's vote wisely ,let's not differ due to our political affiliations... Let's condemn corruption and other impunities.God bless Kenya.#nchi ya kitu kidogo#eric wainaina #tujiangalie #sautisol#juliani# sarabi band#thekingkaka...
This is such an accurate jam.... #MustPlay

I'm here after Juliani's performance at UON KISUMU I felt touched.... And moved by his whole live performance.... Keep it up hoping to work with you pretty soon
Hey woow love the song repost it again to be one of the forgotten songs with wisdom ,,, not the ones we listen to nowadays
One of the most conscious song av heard ....people are busy discussing BBI instead of real issues tackling Kenyans
Nairobi Half-Life cast in the team.... nice song
Sheria Fuata... lazima abuniwe tume.
After all is said and done, all will be said and nothing will be done.
Sijui niseme. Noma sana hiyo. Guys keep it up. Love the beat, Love the lyrics, Love the video. Thumbs up Guys.
This jam's on point.... kudos Sarabi n Juliani..
I'm here late 2018 and its still chaotic... Kenyans need to wake up soon ama tutakua kama Burundi, Zimbabwe and the likes
JULIANA,ERICKWAINAINA,and king KAKA I salute you guys
great songwriting. Good video directing. This team meant business, and executed a well thought out video. Just hope it speaks to our hearts and minds. Alot of sense in that song
Bring back this good music back...
I always thought i beared the pain alone, Life in kenya is really unfair. we need better leadership but change starts with me and you. we have to rise and stand out to make our country better
the song is very good.a relief from the usual kenyan songs.conscious .kudos
Nice track... Fuata Sheria kabisa

Big up t Sarabi and Juliani........
there's something in the melody...i cant shake off....
wow! I smell a change revolution,this is the spirit,aluta continua

This is the plain truth. The Kenya we don't want! I love this song. Thumbs up Juiani+ the Sarabi Band
Bravo..... Good things here but now it is clear Juliani is not only a gospel artiste but also a patriot
serabi that's maturity in music over there, juliani RBG sio,usi vae to,act what you show,sheria iko on point ka hii joint na smoke niki point sheria
Very few songs tackle social issues in Kenya like #FuataSheria does... Great song, hard hitting, but point delivered...
FANTASTIC
Listening to it in 2019, who is here?
i love this song...mmmmh lazima abuniwe tume.
Now this is music....deep stuff
2019 and still back here🔥
wooow that was incredible....
the hashtag continues....oneday....
not like I heard the song today, but talk of music from the heart... remains true always!
This song needs to be performed at the on coming jamuhuri day
Indeed tutafuata Sheria...
This song making sense right now 😢
revolutionary muziki, we need more of this
Wapi Kidero when you need to slap somebody
#THETREND we must all come out and join the fight...
Change will only come from us the wananchi. No matter how much we blame our leaders they will never change coz they are the ones benefiting. Refuse to board that full matatu, refuse to bribe that traffic cop, don't side with a politician just coz he's from your tribe? No matter how much we talk or sing about it, words alone without action will never change anything. Peace!
Amazing ...good music and msg to th society
big up guys;things people don't want 2 hear
SAME MESSAGE AS WAJINGA NYINYI 6 YEARS AGO
