Song Meaning of “Kwammanga” by Cosmic Mantis
Kwammanga by Cosmic Mantis, tells a story of longing for a simpler way of life, on the brink of loss.Though the music speaks with a dreamlike and ethereal tone, the lyrics stir emotions of longing and hopelessness. The lyrics, repeat “Come together, never part” emphasize a strong desire for unity, as we search for solace and clarity in the chaotic world of today.
The chorus, “Waiting on the Kwammanga, bring me home, bring me solace”, speaks of hope in the darkness of loss. The chorus is a powerful call to restore our hope in a broken world, as we search for peace and a chance to start anew.
The bridge then changes the tone to one of loss and desperation, as we are reminded of the heartbreak suffered with those we once were close to, and can no longer have. We are then hit with the chorus for a final plea for comfort and peace, in the search for the Kwammanga.
The song ultimately captures a heart aching longing for a sense of belonging, and a simple way of life which we all too often struggle to find. It serves as a reminder that, with hope and faith, we can find solace and a chance to rest, no matter how fragmented and broken the world may be.
