Bathi uzengani
Bathi udume ngani
Said I'm tryna build a dream
Bathi uzengani
Said I'm tryna reach a goal
N'cela phuza manzi
N'cela phuza manzi
Do or die you can't do with that
You can't deal with that
You can't sleep at night
Talking bitches your baby momma she call ma phone
She gon' come tonight
That's not part of my plan I never send any invites
She coming for the night amma kiss on her thighs
Lights out and you know you it goes down
You knocked out but somehow you man-up
Ey maybe that's how you supposed to man up
Thinking 'bout argh man I won't give it up
Get better, be cold and a go getter
Sell records get gold's like Don Dana
Tlwela banyana batlo tlhantsha like tswa daar
Like Khuli Chana I tswakantsha but tswa daar
I'm here to show these rappers that they've been playing
Everytime I think there's no box
I'm the big dog
You cannot block
I'm here to rock
I'm so huey that's the boondocks
Hope you love me like your Xbox
Better check me like your mailbox
I'm so rare like a jukebox
If you play me that's on cost
I'm so hard like diamond rocks
You can break me
I can still be precious
Lord is with me
Oh yeah he bless us
Lord forgive me
Oh yeah spare us
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah
I'm blessed
Feeling like I just got at the top
Ohh yeah
I'm blessed
Feeling like I just got here
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah ohh yeah I'm blessed
Ohh yeah
I'm blessed
Feeling like I just got at the top
Ohh yeah
I'm blessed
Feeling like I just got here
Bathi udume ngani
Said I'm tryna build a dream

While I'm on the road
Bathi udeme ngani
Bathi uzengani
N'cela phuza manzi

N'cela phuza manzi
N'cela phuza manzi
N'cela phuza manzi
