lyrics

Where I'm From – Nobody for President

Lyrics

Well he was born and raised in the stormy cape and as I recall the date it was sort of late,
somewhere in Autumn May in winter's pouring rain whilst the seas forces to rage to form a
bay!
The Bay of pigs, where because of race laws of state all were made to secure their way,
ensure we stay poorly paid considering we're leave in an appalling state!
Where ones views on life on human rights are put aside scrutinized until yo crucified!
Where the few decide now who should die,
basically its suicide should you comply!
Or maybe its just proving why they're using lies,
I say to utilise on u and I, I say to neutralize the youth who rise
well knowing thats what becomes of us if you're from where im from!
Re bomoso, bojwale, bophetheho, bokgale Hlwaya tsebe o mamele re o phetele re bale
Libuka lipale re bale tsa bahale, re kalimeng litsebe re lihokele Malone
Re bomoso, bojwale, bophetheho, bokgale Hlwaya tsebe o mamele re o phetele re bale
Libuka lipale re bale tsa bahale, re kalimeng litsebe re lihokele Malone
I had a dream of bones with teeth said many things from underneath they did
and insisted I listened for the sake of it, but now it seems a written forth word can only tell
Where the arrow has landed and how it fell
I have to play this game to just to make some money
Sharp people and gentrified buildings, dont you get it
Its taken time to feel this way, no more than how to sky and yet we still have to pay
just to get by
Re bomoso, bojwale, bophetheho, bokgale Hlwaya tsebe o mamele re o phetele re bale
Libuka lipale re bale tsa bahale, re kalimeng litsebe re lihokele Malone HOHA.

about

Nobody for President Cape Town, South Africa

A chance meeting of similar minds resulted in the genesis of Nobody for President. Distinctly peri-urban sounds that reflect contemporary hope frustration joy and disappointments. Easy delivery over chilled beats the energetic Folakah, controlled Anu and melodic L'Mental strike easily digestible dose of conscious rap positive, challenging lyrics wrapped in a bun of funky feel good sounds. ... more
