Song Lyrics:
Verse
I write these songs for my kids, to know who daddy was
Up & down the streets of jozi, nghlanganis' impilo
They see me through the photos,thinkin that I'm eatin better
Buyilo buyima, buphilo baka, buma tsoongo, amurena
The lord is my umbrella...
Knowing that one song can change my life, is vendetta
Me without a feature on a feature on a record, went better
Another story another year, we don't know whether
Sun will shine, sun will dawn, sibamb' kul' themba
Like a street vendor, doubting, he gon get a tender
Luck is what you make, count the cents and make a change
Thought I seen enough, until I saw somebody dying
11 years ago, it's only now I get to settle
Get to write about it, guess it's how I clean the closure
Benghlal' emkhukhwin, ma sister never get ashamed
Biggie had a dream, I had vision then I lived it
(yes) it's true that I lost my momma, I'm so broken
To comprehend my smile, I gotta think 'bout things she did
Your granny was so precious, words to ma first born,
And the second one, third one you never know
Lemme numb ma brother's wounds I'm talkin FBOI, he done lost a mother, I know the void is gettin bigger
Take it from a brother who done lost a mother too
The last conversations, that I had with her were sad
"that, was the moment when she told me that you leaving jozi",
Made a promise imma keep, to care, for Luyanda
Shes your daughter, shes ma daughter will make the world wonder
I'm writing songs, based on stories, that I live through them
Thats just something real I can't let go I'm so attached
Wrote this record from my heart, I know somebody is touched
Get a tissue, sul' nyembez' Lord is always there
I'm turnin to this kind of rapper that I always needed
Always needed for the people even though they hate,
The ones that smile momentary, awaiting for ma death
Either way we die, fact is that we die different
Ncel' ubambe isandla sam, I'll make your life different
If I can't make it different, then I'll make it visioned
That's the helpin the hand, for people living in ma circle
Heaven knows, either way ill see the prelly gates,
Ngbon' mama, ngbon' Jesu then, I'll hit dance
I wanna thank ma lady, who got the bigger faith in me,
Holdin on the hands of patience while we countin years
Ngiphinde ngbong' uSifiso, a friend, turning to a brother,
This is thicker than the blood even the heaven knows
Gotta relate, I know this song will make the angels dance
I got a lot of people who can never turn me down, ubaba wami always give me reason to be stronger
Holding on the hands of patience, far from waiting longer
[SWITCH]
Word for the city, I know that I'm great I came from the mud, that's obvious
Impumelelo yangempela is tough, you start from a dream, to live it up
Can never pace, rather walk through the phase, if heaven knows
We gon' knock on the gates, and tell all the angels that life is unfair,
But will it be fair, to get favors, ain't no body a Saint
We live through the grace,
(God) living in ma prime, (this) little life of mine,spark the flame make it shine
Head over heels I'm leaving the proof, I know that I'm great, don't turn it off
Me & the music, we bride and groom I said it before I leveled up
(Outro)
If heaven knows
