[Intro]
They used to say that if men were meant to fly
He'd have wings, but he did fly
He discovered he had to
I don't believe we can stop
In fact through all our existence
Through fright and then faint-hearted
Had been warning men not to push any further
[Hook]
Yeah!
You and I we ain't the same, look at you!
You and I we ain't the same, yeah!
You and I we ain't the same, haha!
You and I we ain't the same, ai!
You and I we ain't the same
You and I we ain't the saaaaaaaaaaame
You and I we ain't the same, ai!
Yeah!
[Verse 1]
Every obstacle was a ladder
Made me better and took me further
Was just a kid from Venda
Used to think I didn't matter
Came from moulding figures
From mud gathered in the banks of croc infested rivers
Prophetic dreams, been a poet since a laaitie
King Kunta with prosthetic limbs
If you looking for the future this is it like I.T
Been burning like boerewors on a braai
Pushing the envelope like a bribe
Even though I know that pushing rap on the side
With a full time grind is an up hill climb
[Hook]
Yeah!
Okay irini ndi thome ndi dzene nga tshivenda, ay!
Nne na inwi a ri fani
Ay! A ri fani
Nne na inwi a ri fani
Yeah! A ri fani man
Nne na inwi a ri fani
Ai!
You and I we ain't the same, yeah!
You and I we ain't the same
You and I we ain't the saaaaaaaaaaame
You and I we ain't the same, yeah!
[Verse 2]
Born to be a giant like Goliath
Ended up a gun for hire, time to retire
Sniper fleeing the roof
Been a dire wolf posing in the wool
Misunderstood
Bad and good battle in my body
Like an epic comic book
Life keeps dragging me back to the hood
Back and fourth, from the comfort of a bed
Then I'm back on the floor
They ask me if I'm back for good
If I'm prepared to quit my job and rap for food
Rap like a bear beating you up
Then giving you a hug
But walk about wheezing with an asthma pump
[Hook]
Yeah! yeah yeah
You and I we ain't the same, a ri fani man
You and I we ain't the same, yeah!
You and I we ain't the same
You and I we ain't the same, yeah!
You and I we ain't the same
You and I we ain't the saaaaaaaaaaame
You and I we ain't the same
You! And I we ain't the same, yeah!
Nne na inwi a ri fani
Nne na inwi a ri fani, yeah!
Nne na inwi a ri fani
