Izono zam zi xob' ukholo lwam Nkosi
But I just keep on keeping on
Nje ngangoku ibhlungu inhloko yam Nkosi
I speak truth when the mic is on

Don't wanna die alone that's why I give birth to songs
Push through let the songs breathe through your stereo
I got a bunch of demons I'm dreamin they leave me alone
Haven't seen my mama in a minute but we speak on the phone
Slaving for ten years they still underrate me

They still under ­pay me
Although I'm something crazy
Pop died, left me in pieces meeting Jesus
Hit the booth give them a flow that leaves them sea sick

Nkosi baxolele Nkosi baxolele

Nkosi baxolele Nkosi baxolele
Bafun' ukus' dida bazam' ukus'qiba
Kant' usatani ung'yenzani ah yes

Breathe easy, I got the keys to the padlock
I'm knee deep in sin, had a child out of wedlock
I miss mama, used to wipe my face with a wet cloth
K'dala s'gudla, si roof­a sitjontja na bo sex tjaro
Baby mama hates me

So I wonder if we made love the night, the night we made a baby
And my faith a little shaky, I'm a little crazy
So I know my next girl will replace me
Ke mogolo maare santse ke gagaba
Majelathoko a re santse ke atlhama
Modimo a re lesego tsoga, tsoga, phaphama
O tlogele go gatelelwa ke setlamatlama
