[Intro]
Hay' izinto zichangile nou ntwana, yabo?
Ngiz'tholele i-two door nyana, sports car
Nam' sengizokwazi u-charmer ngemoto, uyangthola?
Hayi ak'si nto yak'dala boy, abantu bangasqali
Nathi aska'cavi lento siyendzayo sizoPopa

[Verse]
Back when I could only imagine
When I just wished it could happen
When I almost quit rappin'
Mawuthi uyabheka those are thoughts that I'm still trapped in
Still rap money in English or vernac accent
Depends on whose askin'
That one boy that they can't destroy
Saphushela phantsi nje ngekari yetoy
Thee bread winner, both parents unemployed
Restless nights ngilala ngimile njengo Nyaope boy, damn
When those negative thoughts come back again
They only there to blind me from the good that's happenin'
Izinto ezifana nokwesaba ngizilahlela leh
Ngihlabele abaphantsi like javelin
Beka manje I'm travelin'
Big blessings come in small portions
Hear a beat I'm swingin', show me where the golf course is
Yacava the flow is gorgeous
Touchline feature is not a blessing, it's all torture and you gotta be more cautious
Then they treat me like an outsider
Like my verses aren't Al qaeda
The nightrider, firefighter
Tshela ugirl to open her mouth a little wider
She ask "Do you love me?" I'm like "Well, kinda"
Angali aginalo ihit egameni lami
Come on Jo Mina ngiyaziphushela sonke i-stuff sami
I handle myself, I manage myself
When radio doesn't play me I even put that on myself
That's why they don't count me as part of the race
Same time they still compare me to one of the greats
I don't have to tell you how I feel, that's all in my face
I'm so transparent that you can see my heart when it breaks
Before Kiernan and Cass, there was Kenan and Kal
Mangaba uyi2000, I know that's not ringing a bell
Whether they really did it for kwaal or they did it to sell
The problem is the kids are applying that rule for themselves
And I make the best music
Wena uthi ngisabanda but that's not how your fans view it
Game stays the same then I'm turnin' my back to it
Ipiano does more for the youth than the government
They don't help the kids but I know Phorii and Kabza can
Some people help you get the bread, some help you butter it
Some friends put you on the bus and some throw you under it
Touchline, I keep one hundred
Your last song is just kinda lit
S.O.O.N 2 three million streams, did it all with my own little team
And manje ilokishi sel'vuke nge last number
Why sound like Young Thug when we've got Young Stunna?
Look in the crowd nam ngizdontsele onenyana
Ke tathela banyana mzala
And I could go deeper
Let's hope fear and doubt don't creep up
Listen to your heart 'cause even MacG knows to keep quiet when the Sol speaketh
Heyi seni ringa kakhulu, that's what the internet do
Besides suicide, clout is killin' the youth
Asilali sinokfika ngobsuku sphanda amacici wamaZulu
Ngisho amacoin amakhulu
Mawungena style ubothula
Ntwana uzogcwala mayisuka
Kuthiwa isinamuva liyabukwa
Ngisho nompetha unokuwa
Phunyuk' umphethe ngiyabuya
Yimina obaphethe ngiyadlula
Ngiqoke ifull set ngiyathula
Iblukhwe Neshirt ngiyazisula, hah
Ekse
