Sisi Ndio Tuko Lyrics

Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)

Mnataka wa kwenda kwa club
Wa kanisa ndio tupo
Mnataka wa pombe na mzinga
Wa chai ndio tupo

Tunataka kukesha sherehe
Wakesha kanisa ndio wapo
Mnapenda wa Kwenda Dubai
Wa Katoloni ndio tupo

Tuko tuko (Tupo) Nasema tuko (Tuko)
Tuko tuko (Tupo) Na sisi tuko (Tuko)
Hatafuti wengine Mungu
Maana tuko

Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)

Tuondoke twende wapi?
Kule tumfuate nani?
Ili tukapate nini?
Tuitwe majina gani?
Kwa Yesu tumekosa nini?

Sisi bado tupo
Hata wakiondoka potelea mbali
Waache waende
Hata wasipo amini sisi hatujali
Waache waende

Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)

Tuko tayari kutumwa na Mungu popote eh
Atutumie kwa njia yoyote
Lakini uwezo sisi hatuna
Mgumu hatuna

Wachungaji nao wanataka wa suti
Hawataki wa mitindo
Na si ndio tupo
Vijana wa mitindo tupo
Yesu atupenda hivyo
Na tutamwakilisha hivyo

Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)

Arusha na Mwanza mpo?
Dar Dodoma mpo?
Nairobi Nakuru mpo?
Kisii Nyeri mpo?
Kisumu Mombasa mpo?
Kampala, Bujumbura 
Lilongwe, Kigali mpo?

Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)
Ni sisi ndio tupo (Tupo)


Sisi Ndio Tuko

Sisi Ndio Tuko Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

Released on October 29, 2021, Ringtone's song "Sisi Ndio Tuko" presents a vibrant declaration of faith and presence within the Christian community. The song opens with a repetitive, emphatic assertion, "Sisi ndio tupo," which translates to "We are the ones who are here" or "It is us who are present." This phrase serves as a foundational statement, establishing a sense of identity, belonging, and steadfastness among believers in contrast to others who might choose different paths. The song video, released concurrently, visually supports this message of unity and presence.

The lyrics draw a clear distinction between different lifestyles and values, highlighting the choices made by those who are "present" in faith. They contrast the desire for clubs, alcohol, and parties with a commitment to church and tea. Worldly aspirations like traveling to Dubai are set apart from a dedication to spiritual presence, emphasizing a divergence in priorities. This stark contrast underscores the song's central theme: a conscious decision to remain grounded in faith, even as others pursue secular pleasures and ambitions. The repetition of "Sisi ndio tupo" after these comparisons reinforces the idea that despite differing paths, the community of faith remains active and present.

A poignant section of the song poses rhetorical questions: "Where should we leave and go? Who should we follow there? What will we gain? What names will we be called? What have we lacked in Jesus?" These lines articulate a deep sense of contentment and fulfillment found in their current spiritual state. They question the validity and necessity of abandoning their faith journey, suggesting that leaving would lead to uncertainty and lack, implying that everything needed is already found in Jesus. This reinforces the commitment expressed throughout the song and highlights the perceived sufficiency of their relationship with Christ.

The song also addresses resilience and unwavering conviction in the face of others' departure or disbelief. The lines stating that they are still present even if others leave and that they do not care if others do not believe demonstrate a strong, independent faith that is not dependent on external validation or the actions of others. This speaks to a deep personal conviction that persists regardless of the surrounding environment or prevailing attitudes. The declaration of being "ready to be sent by God anywhere" and used in any way, while acknowledging their lack of inherent power, further illustrates their submission to divine will and reliance on God for strength and direction. This reflects a core principle of discipleship: being available and willing instruments in God's hands.

Furthermore, the song touches on the theme of acceptance within the church, particularly regarding appearance. It contrasts a perceived preference for "suits" by some church leaders with the presence and acceptance of "youth with styles." By stating that Jesus loves them "like that" and they will represent Him "like that," the lyrics challenge superficial judgments and affirm that faith is about the heart and willingness to serve, regardless of outward fashion choices. This is an inspirational message of inclusivity, suggesting that authentic faith can be expressed through diverse appearances. The song concludes by calling out to various cities and regions across Eastern and Central Africa, asking if they are "present," expanding the idea of this committed community across geographical boundaries and inviting a sense of widespread solidarity among believers. This act of naming places broadens the scope of "Sisi ndio tupo" from a personal or local declaration to a regional affirmation of faith and presence.
