Lyrics

My people (Oh my people)
We can't live in hunger my people (Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah)
Yaz' iphel' indlala my people
We can build our Sandton in Tembisa, 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 said)
Brought my home city with me (Whole city with me)
On my shoulders, shouts to all the ones who did it with me (Yeah they did it with me)
Had to hustle, hit the greedy they was sitting pretty
Nevermind the nitty gritty, really I don't need the pitty (I don't need it though)
But it was tough, take a look at how the mood changed
On a new wave, you won't never see the dude cave
Truth says, still got the hunger need a full plate
Two-faced n***as tryna knock me out the food chain
This how it is with black people all around
United we could build but we tear each other down
Instead of breaking rules, we could be breaking ground
Cause those who did found a way to sell us what they found (Yeah they did though)
Making fortunes from the riches of our grounds (How much more?)
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 greater

So my people (Oh my people)
We can't live in hunger my people (Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah)
Yaz' iphel' indlala my people
We can build our Sandton in Tembisa, 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 come from the soul it's not no silly song
This a we won't go under til we see milli song
It's a don't let no evil even get near me song
It's free game, go get it and put your city on
We all we got so, we could break the cycle
Teach us how to flip a bag so we buy the block bro
And generate generational wealth
Build a nation of health, unity, knowledge of self
Make the most of the cards we were dealt, f**k how we felt
It's what we, do moving forward that matters the most (People)
Ain't no time to be broke, now's the time to be woke
There's a better life for my people I know this through hope
Because we're tired of the poverty, political hypocrisy
Tired of the riots while the wealthy make a mockery of real issues
Real sh*t, real people and real pits
You won't want these problems, it get ugly, real quick

Yeah my people
