[Intro: Sjava]
No, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
[Chorus: Sjava]
K’thiw’ ungavumi
K’thiw' ungaling’ uvume
Ukuba yint’ ongeyiyo
Nom’ abantu abafun’ ubeyiyo
K’thiw’ ungavumi
K’thiw' ungaling’ uvume
Ukuba yint’ ongeyiyo
Nom’ umhlaba ufun’ ubeyiyo
[Post-Chorus: Sjava]
Mabethi run n***a, run n***a, run n***a, run n***a, run n***a (Ungabaleki)
I say fight brother, fight brother, fight brother, fight brother, fight brother (Mele uzimele)
Mabethi kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a (Ungakhiph’ igazi weh)
I say love brother, love brother, love brother, love brother, love brother (Banik’ uthando weh)
[Verse 1: Saudi]
Just don’t let nobody tell you who you are
That’s one thing that gotta come from you (Yeah)
Don’t you let nobody shintsha you in this life
Don’t let nobody feature you
And abantu ngek’ ubajabulisе bonke
That means your happiness is yours
And you’rе not breakin' any laws maw'u-choose ukuz’beka k’qala
Sibamba kanzima, bathi ng’bothi la
Kodwa ang’lon’ ivila
Ang’khon’ uk’gidla
My dreams engiwagijimisa
Angeke ngikhon’ ukuz’tshel’ amanga
[Chorus: Sjava]
K’thiw’ ungavumi
K’thiw' ungaling’ uvume
Ukuba yint’ ongeyiyo
Nom’ abantu abafun’ ubeyiyo
K’thiw’ ungavumi
K’thiw' ungaling’ uvume
Ukuba yint’ ongeyiyo
Nom’ umhlaba ufun’ ubeyiyo
[Post-Chorus: Sjava]
Mabethi run n***a, run n***a, run n***a, run n***a, run n***a (Ungabaleki)
I say fight brother, fight brother, fight brother, fight brother, fight brother (Mele uzimele)
Mabethi kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a (Ungakhiph’ igazi weh)
I say love brother, love brother, love brother, love brother, love brother (Banik’ uthando weh)
[Verse 2: Sampa The Great]
Of course I'm tryin' to survive but I ain't thrivin'
Dehumanisin', connivin' this life is-
When another door close, another door opens
Feeling so close, stuck in my emotions (Yeah, yeah)
Well when you hurt me then you hurting yourself
What an illusion 'cause this bitterness not good for our health
My journey focused on self
And yet these scars grow beyond me
When people walkover or step on you then you learn to walk boldly
Walk up there colder, blood on your shoulder
Bloody you dust it off
Coldest smile ain't no smiles when you older
Still you askin' for change, but this shit ain't gon' change
And I done paid all my dues so could you spare me some change
I been holdin' me back, I know I got my back
My journey brought me the heights, I fear it's hard to go back
Well then if bitterness catch me then I'm gon' keep me in check
'Cause I checked the life prior and I'ma focus on next, bet
[Chorus: Sjava]
K’thiw’ ungavumi
K’thiw' ungaling’ uvume
Ukuba yint’ ongeyiyo
Nom’ abantu abafun’ ubeyiyo
K’thiw’ ungavumi
K’thiw' ungaling’ uvume
Ukuba yint’ ongeyiyo
Nom’ umhlaba ufun’ ubeyiyo
[Post-Chorus: Sjava]
Mabethi run n***a, run n***a, run n***a, run n***a, run n***a (Ungabaleki)
I say fight brother, fight brother, fight brother, fight brother, fight brother (Mele uzimele)
Mabethi kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a, kill n***a (Ungakhiph’ igazi weh)
I say love brother, love brother, love brother, love brother, love brother (Banik’ uthando weh)
