(CA) Crazy Arabian

CA

CA, I'm a crazy Arabian

I came from Malaysia straight off a slave ship

Still got the chains and my whole mind state is the past

Like I know what apartheid is

Scorned from the 80s, born in the 90s

I played in the road, rolled with the laaities

All of them would fight me, called me a 'Whitey'

Because I went to school and I talked more politely

And then I get older, more didn't like me

Felt like a war, everywhere and inside me

Help me I'm developing habits

The Cape has different kind of Arabs

The girls aren't asking for marriage

And the men just bring along baggage

They take a girl's heart, do damage

Now baby girl had a miscarriage

Just another day and that's average

Survival's an every day tactic

Things take time and the hand ticks

Death come in 3s like a hat trick

Collecting Arabian antiques

In the sand dunes with the cactus

Around poisonous snakes and arachnids

But I am a prophet, I'm a champion

But God, let me not start bragging

Allah, please grant me compassion

Excuse me, I'm so deurmekaa

I make salaah in Ramadan

I smoke and I know it's Haraam

I know I've ignored the Athaan

And these are the faults of insaan

I feel I embarrass Islam because I'm

CA, I'm a crazy Arabian

I'm straight from the Kaap

You can find me on the pavement

I'm hard like a baksteen with bars like a yster

I don't wanna talk much

And I don't wanna say niks

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian

CA, I'm a crazy Arabian

Straight from the Kaap

You can find me on the pavement

Hard like a baksteen with bars like a yster

I don't wanna talk much

And I don't wanna say niks

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian

CA, I'm a crazy Arabian

All of my freedom and privilege was taken

Adopted the ways of the nation

That's not how I want it, that's how the country has made it

Face it, the president graduated as masons

All we been taught is corrupt education

Time has been wasted, indoctrinated

A coloured bru killed a coloured bru and that's racist

I waited to say this, I have been patient

Notice the system has really been degraded

Pray in a place that is sacred

May Allah guide me and protect me from Satan

Islamic religion is ancient, dating

Back to the oldest of civilisation

In the Cape there was colonisation

Only some of races were favoured

We were stripped naked, given new names and

Forced into labour, surrounded by danger

Raised is the cages, spices and flavours were traded

District 6 was invaded

But we want peace in the Kaap

'Cause look what they did to Rashid and Rashad

You seeing the baard

He could be a gangster or be molenaar

I appeal Jamaads

It doesn't take much can we please make dua?

'Cause I feel like we stuck

There's a war in the streets and it feels like Iraq

And you ending up dead

'Cause the ouens do drive-bys, wearing a fez

Now it's off with his head

When the car drove away then the number plate said

CA, I'm a crazy Arabian

I'm straight from the Kaap

You can find me on the pavement

I'm hard like a baksteen with bars like a yster

I don't wanna talk much

And I don't wanna say niks

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian

CA, I'm a crazy Arabian

Straight from the Kaap

You can find me on the pavement

Hard like a baksteen, bars like a yster

I don't wanna talk much

And I don't wanna say niks

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian

CA I'm a crazy Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian, Arabian
