[Intro: Tae Africa]

Real

[Verse 1: Tae Africa, Pdot O]

How I pop from the ashes to pick and choose

Been a bully with the script let these words pick on you

Through it all I let my tunnel vision see me through

Pen and pad stay prepared in case they make a move

Move like Leo on the Revenant

For survival I go grizzly how I lay it bare

I cut corners for the ticket we ain't playin' fair

Get it?

Yeah we fly but the price wasn't innocent

Sasi grand til iz'tina built demand

But we was doomed from the start so nday'yeka iphela

I watched a G OD on thе gram

Then G-O-D let me know it's part of plan

I'm mеdieval in the knight time, know it

I'ma stay in the cut 'til the gang and 'em is sorted

I seen them watch round the clock 'til it clocked

When I left and they watched was the right time

Andina skathi sama what-what

I been the type to give you time just to watch a nigga tick tock

Sikhule grand unlike Ronnie, I ain't never had to act tough

Like uMfundi I bring fire when you act up

Like umfundi I stayed booked 'cause the grade up

Get it?

They cav' me for the frees like Mandela or the bottom of n' yskas

Get it?

I know you wish that I'd be careful what I wish for

But I'm the type to make a wish that let me wish more

S-P-C-A catch a stray, dog

Tony Hawk on the grind how I slide, dawg

It's been a minute since I came in second place, dawg

Don't get it twisted like a braid though

Yeah we all about the vibes but don't come here moving brave, dawg

Me I landed ePark Steysh, dawg

Now I'm finna whip back after 12 years a slave, dawg

It's a given how I got what it take

They break a leg when I ain't even break a sweat

And I'ma do it 'til Lizzo sing (Yii)

Get it?


[Verse 2: Pdot O]

Okay I get it, we different

I see the world broke but trust me only God do the fixin"

Now I'm speakin' for children

I'm singing hymns in the Kitchen

Listen, the spirit itchin'

Transformation works the weavin', don't believe 'em

When they tell you your shit is goin' South

Now I'm more precise about the things that flow through the mouth

It's complicated

Baby, give it time, I seen the other side

It's nothin' that you thought you could survive, you lookin' so surprised

Was writin' in my mama spare room, out came jewels

Talkin' about the music but niggas just downplay the views (Ooh)

Hold up, you got it misconstrued

Your information twisted

You thirsty, you think I'm dissin' you

That's not the move

I came to shift up and inspire you

No matter what the lies be sayin', you can't ignore the truth

They shakin' in the room, the presence is still immaculate

I got nothin' to lose, I own nothin', it's Heaven sent

That mean we came with nothin', how we leave the earth

You niggas stiff and stubborn

I can't believe these words, eish

Yonke lento yaqala ngalamagama

Sonke siyagabula but noko nina niyabaxa

Eish, noko nina niyabaxa

We rob you for your jewels, so pass me the baraclava

Pass me the Baraclav'


[Outro: Pdot O]

Yo, man, I'm gone

Peace
