My people
We can't live in hunger my people
Iyawze iphele indlala my people
We can build our Sandton in Thembisa
My people
We can make a change oh my people
Stop that begging I say my people
Stop the kidnappings I say people
We can build our Sandton in Soweto
People
Yeah I say
Brought my home city with me
On my shoulders I see all the ones that did it with me
Had to hustle hit the gritty
They where sitting pretty
Nevermind the nitty gritty
Really I don't need them pity
But it was tough take a look how the mood changed
On the new wave
Y'all never see the dude caged
Truth says
Still got the hunger need a full plate
Two faced nigga try to knock me out
The food chain
That's how it is with black people all around
United we could build
But we tear each other down
Instead of breaking rules
We're could be breaking ground
Cause those who did found a way
To sell us what they found
Making fortune from the riches of our grounds
While we starve how much more can we allow
In the land of our ancestors
We need more than prayer
Let the pain that they endured
Fuel us to be the greatest
My people
We can't live in hunger my people
Iyawze iphele indlala my people
We can build our Sandton in Thembisa
My people
We can make a change oh my people
Stop that begging I say my people
Stop the kidnappings I say people
We can build our Sandton in Soweto
People
Alright (People)
This comes the soul
This not no silly song
It's a we go wonder till we see millies song
It's a don't let no evil even get near me song
It's free game got get it
And put your city on
We all we got so we can break the cycle
Teach us how to flip a bag
So we about to block bro
And generate generational wealth
Built a nation of health unity knowledge itself
Make the most of the cards we were dealt
Fuck how are we felt
It's what we do moving forward
That matters the most
Ain't no time to be broke
Now it's the time to be woke
There's a better life for my people
I know there's still hope
Because we tired of poverty political hypocrisy
Tired of the ride while the wealthy
Make a mockery of real issues
Real shit
Real people and real kids
You don't want these problems they get ugly real quick
My people
We can't live in hunger my people
Iyawze iphele indlala my people
We can build our Sandton in Thembisa
My people
We can make a change oh my people
Stop that begging I say my people
Stop the kidnappings I say people
We can build our Sandton in Soweto
People
