(Umgowo)
I've been sippin' and drinking this whiskey all night
Kodwa xand'thethi inyani and'kho right
Smiling and laughing but deep down inside
I know I'm dying I know I'm gowing
Forcing this beer and liquor all down
Kodwa nd'yayazi it doesn't taste nice
Sippin and smoking, joking and faking
I know I'm stressing, I know I'm a hypocrite
I know I'm gowing I know I'm gowing
Nd'ya gowa, nd'ya gowa
Breathing through wound, drowning all these blues
Cover all my bruises when I'm swimming in a pool
Full of booze in the dawn till it's dusking, till the sun rises
S'phinde s'hlanganise another two till the pockets are bleeding
And never minding, living in the moment till the guilt starts to kick in
That's life knocking, the mind sobering, reality of things
Is that this pain is never changing
No matter how many drinks I drink
How many blunts I hit, how many shots I take, yeah
I'm drowning in this bitch
Gowing ain't shit kodwa umgowo is a bitch
I've been sippin' and drinking this whiskey all night
Kodwa xand'thethi inyani and'kho right
Smiling and laughing but deep down inside
I know I'm dying I know I'm gowing
Forcing this beer and liquor all down
Kodwa nd'yayazi it doesn't taste nice
Sippin and smoking, joking and faking
I know I'm stressing, I know I'm a gowing
Yes, I know I'm gowing, I know I'm gowing
Something keeps telling me, to never give in
Nd'ya gowa, nd'ya gowa (one day its coming)
Over 10 years in this bitch, and I'm still doing this shit
Intanga zam zatshata k'dala zade zakha nekhaya
Pressure cooking this bitch, tortoise pacing this shit
Ixesha lona al'manga soze and'linde amalanga
Inoba ekasi ndiy'ntlekisa, zitha zam zona z'ncumile
Xaz'bona ikhaya likaTata ngoku l'bhodlokile
At times nd'yay' doubta yonke le shit, at times I feel like giving in
At times I wanna cut my wrists and end all this bullshit
Shit, until I see the youngin' looking
I-Tymma ain't the one I had to look to, so I try and be a better him
Break the cycle and generational curses
Bring in the riches ngomculo I'll avenge you
Oladi nawe Sbu, nd'yayazi nind'jongile
Lisakhanya ungaze uy'libale uyak'thanda uMalume
OoZizi bas'gadile, s'bonge owakh' uMakhulu, s'bong' uNkulunkulu
Ngamandla nange mpilo (Yeah it's so dead and burried)
Yes
UMgowo doesn't last forever (Yeah it's so dead and burried)
we keep going, we keep marching (Yeah it's so dead and burried)
Interview continuation
(Sometimes)
Cry Sometimes in the middle of the night
When things go South and you're feeling all down
Let it all out was words from the wise
And get back up and give it a fight
Fuck a hater
Fuck a stressor
Fuck uSathana and non believers
Fuck the enemy and demotivator
And fuck everybody who wanna fuck with your demeanor
Will I ever make it
Will I be the one to end generational curses, yeah
Will I be the one to free the masses
Free the mind from the lack of faith and the doubt
Put a smile on their faces, knots on their laces, yeah
When I write I let my heart speak
It's the pain in the curve of my cursive
that cuts deep, got the skill of the Tai-Chi
Bear the sword, I'm the master of my Shaolin
Music avatar, bend sound like a violin
Eyes on the prize I'm all about the double U's
Keep the consonants and give me Z
Keep the vowels and give me U
Together you'll find ZU, nothing but the real me
Pupil and the graduate of hard knocks school
Fuck the sing rap shit, fuck the industry rules
I'm a prodigy the last one too
Royalty from Timbuktu
And my tomb shall lay at the Valley of Kings
Cry Sometimes in the middle of the night
When things go South and you're feeling all down
Let it all out was words from the wise
And get back up and give it a fight
Fuck a hater
Fuck a stressor
Fuck uSathana and non believers
Fuck the enemy and demotivator
And fuck everybody who wanna fuck with your demeanor, yeah
Let the skies above fall in order to see beyond
The mind clouded by the fog from a dying flame
Voices screaming help with a bruised diaphragm
And I'm numb to the pain, from the bottom we came
Nothing new in the strain, same bull new day
Aah, Mama went insane and it took her to her grave
At a very young age, God never heard us pray
Guess the devil got his way
Read the poem wasn't wary of the Ides of May
Yeah, that's the life at the bottom
Of the belly of the Beast and it's turmoil
Watch it turning and the acid boil
So we ride that reaction up the throat till it burps
Yeah, that's the life of a ghetto ****
Half a lifetime trynna get out ****
Broken homes is what we wanna trynna mend ****
I come across cold coz I was born in Winter, yeah
