Kshuti awuthembekile
Ngoba ukhomba mina
Gogo sula ungalili
Inyembezi zakho ningi
Noma ngaba nzima iqiniso lam ngiyaphila
Negative ngiyayilwisa
Njalo ngentsuku ngiyaqina
Iphuta ugcwele ulaka umaqinasi uyodliswa idust
Lana ak'nabaleka mes'hlasela siyenza ngempela
Kuzani bo x3
Akaboni lo x3
Ngiyok'gcwalisela monga gcwali
islima siveza ngama bala
Ive been hustling for far too long kuti ngiyenze into bese ingahlangani
One for 1475 ikas lam, ilanga likhanya ebumnyameni
Buka ubuso baka blade nzimande if you wanna know what impilo feeeels like
Mthwalo wam awungixaki
Lona owami ngedwa
Mthwalo wam awungixaki
Lona owami ngedwa

Weh malume, weh malume, weh malume, weh malume
Buyisa inkomo zami,
Buyisa inkomo zami
Weh malume, weh malume, weh malume, weh malume
Buyisa inkomo zami, buyisa
Buyisa inkomo zami
Oh ngibhala lencwadi le
Weh malume ngiletha udaba olubalulekile
Siyazana kahle ke lana ekhaya sihlobene
Ngixakekile nami angazi ngishonephi
Ngisabathe kodwa akvumeki
Ubiza loku ngothando
Phila ngedwa uphila yedwa eyethu angsayingeni
uBheka lena ngibeke lena meka'cambalele
Im just tired of these silly games
Off and on then we off again
Kushawa iskoon & thats constantly
You draining all my nigger all my off my energy
Ngoba uphutha into esiyenza wonk'umuntu
Asikho msulwa sobabili, kade siyenza okeqela endleleni
Weh ndlovukazi
koze kube nini siphilisana nzima
I don't want to live like this
Mpinch uthi ungamshiyi chomi nawe uyacava abafana baya sucker
This aynt the life that I wanna get use to,
no more excuses, if I tell you ngiyahamba, I'll do it
Ngicela ung'believe
He thinks that I do, I don't need him
Ngabuyela kiti
Weh malume, weh malume, weh malume, weh malume
Buyisa inkomo zami,
Buyisa inkomo zami
Weh malume, weh malume, weh malume, weh malume
Buyisa inkomo zami, buyisa
Buyisa inkomo zami
Buyisa inkomo zami, buyisa
Buyisa inkomo zami

Ayibo anlinde
Noma bengas'bhekile
bebakhalela amanxila
Kodwa nahlanje uyabacita
Ayibo anlinde
Noma bengas'bhekile
bebakhalela amanxila
Kodwa nahlanje uyabacita
Ngisanok'thatha iskhathi ngibheke impilo
Thats when I ask myself if ngijabulile
Somtimes mali incane and ioffi liyayidinga
Manje ngiyenze njani ngoba izinto zimile
Twalatsa mababy
Forget about the pain
We dancing to a new day
Mvula cela usthela
And if you feel like screaming
Memeza jo memeza
Konke kuqala kimi
Kushiti nokwakho kuqala kuwe
Wake wayibona indoda engalazi iqiniso lakhe
Wake wayibona indoda engalazi iqiniso lakhe
Ayibo anlinde
Noma bengas'bhekile
bebakhalela amanxila
Kodwa nahlanje uyabacita
Ayibo anlinde
Noma bengas'bhekile
bebakhalela amanxila
Kodwa nahlanje uyabacita
