[Verse 2: T-Kay]
Mamazala had to moonlight (What a life)
Credit score getting fucked up
Skhafthin by the lunch time
Tyma lam' was a no show
Aye, hot summer like Tabasco, oh
Cold water in the geyser, 'cause i'gas iyabiza
Aye, mamazala had to borrow money from umamkhulu
Ugogo wam' passed away in the very next room
Aye, banxoshey'gele ziyi'four
I used to bunk class galore, I chose my flow over Law
Momma need more, I chose my liquor over indoor
N***a being black ain't easy, you see it everyday on your TV
A white n***a don't need a CV
That's why black teens wanna rap, B
Cause they got no Sasko in the bread tin
Have you ever been broke?
Did you nearly got evicted from your home?
Nearly got a rope?
[Chorus: T-Kay]
Have you ever been broke yeah?
Did you nearly got evicted from your home?
And you nearly got a rope yeah, just to hang on, hang on, it's okay
Have you ever been broke yeah?
Did you nearly got evicted from your home?
And you nearly got a rope yeah, just to hang on, hang on, you gotta know

[Outro]
But we are living like we are not in a democratic state since 2009 until today, we have nothing to eat, until namhlanje, ayikho into esiyitshayo apho
