Lyrics
Hop out of your seats please get on your feet For the purpose of this here demonstration I'll need (I'm gone need to) Separate the know-nots from the enlightened Security on standby, rebound any industry homies who just might interrupt me Back in my days folks hit the ropes motherfuckers you're done (I have been a) Jail camp, sidewalking tramp Searching for a stamp of approval Victim of the forced removals A hidden gem in this crime-ridden dispensation Tryna make a quick buck off this generation My Christian background taught me a few prayers I'd recite while hopping block to block throwing butterscotch I've built a hunger no left-over can satisfy My wants I need to instantly gratify My pot to urine been a plastic bucket I'd kick it to piss you off My great advice is just don't get involved Super rats adorn my feet on 'Trust Nobody' street I'm reverent with the loud on me I hope somebody's proud of me As I sweep through Kasi streets like women at morning Her son ain't come home, a mother is mourning I'll face you all while you pray I fall on my face I plant pockets on every street just in case I fall from your grace You'll get a dose of these ashy knuckles from Jozi These streets have always been cold and 'em corners never been cosy I'm choosing my only choice Ain't no white flag I shall hoist when There's a new world order moving to the sound of my voice This for the hunger that builds & the extinct that kills For the fire that's ever burning & the magic that heals When I'm still & the world is turning I'll firmly be real Just a man in a mirror cradled in a moment of truth spitting till the day he here lies When it's dark in the streets & I can't find my feet Till the lights shone on me When the low-lying clouds threaten sunny days I'll be safe In the ambit of my freedom of expression till better days For the hunger that builds & the extinct that kills For the fire that's ever burning & the magic that heals When I'm still & the world is turning I'll firmly be real Just a man in a mirror cradled in a moment of truth spitting till the day he here lies When it's dark in the streets & I can't find my feet Till the lights shone on me When the low-lying clouds threaten sunny days I'll be safe In the ambit of my freedom of expression till better days There was no retreat for the defender of dreams Eminently prepared to die for what he believes While pages, tables & new leaves turn On a skewed axis the world turns away He lives to see another day Never to appear with hands up in surrender They raise only to empower, celebrate or praise Scowering through the streets for betters days The last of Oumas sons 2!
