{Intro: The Blck Sparrow}
You have a gift, to be able to write stuff in a way that (Check) people would be able to see (uhm) and be like, snap this is me this is…
{Verse 1}
Say that you’re beyond all your circumstances and change
Even if they point out that you’re very different and strange
Never try to exchange
Remember front cover page
And if the say the book is rubbish, well
(say its not)
Say That you’re beyond all opinions that fit the norm
You would rather say what is real and not applause for what they want
Not to stunt, nor to front, but to stand right Infront and if thеy say your in a rut, well
(Say its not)
(Ha hahaha)
Say that you never will pack a punch but likе Thanos you keep it snappin
Till only the real is rappin (Tjo)
I’m stepping out of my comfort, I’m walking into a challenge
Really out to destroy cause like Thanos I need a balance
Tired of all this talking like people are really damaged
When people out on the streets of Johannesburg really famished
(I wanna) Know what you doing
Don’t say it if you can’t prove it (uhm)
I wanna know what you moving, cause if not
{Chorus}
Cause I’m tired of all the lying
Don’t tell me about your success
When there’s that’s people who really trying
You haven’t given your best
I’m sure that you had the passion
Why did you put it to rest?
Just say it if you can say it
Just say it if you can say it
Tired of all the lying
Don’t tell me about your success
When there’s that’s people who really trying
You haven’t given your best
I’m sure that you had the passion
Why did you put it to rest?
Just say it if you can say it
Just say it if you can say it
{Verse 2}
Just say it if you ain’t down for protecting, it's in your job
Instead of stupid roadblocks and for money you make us stop (you make us stop!)
Say it if you ain’t down for just really helping the people
Instead of being annoyed that the clinic line is a street full (Tjo)
Say it, I want the truth! (uhm)
Say that you think the youth is just a bunch of spoiled kids who have everything but their roots (True!)
Say that your generation knows nothing but how to strive
That’s why you make me buy my license instead of teaching to drive
I’m saying I’m really tired (Woo!)
All I hear is excuses
When somebody really stand, we start showing them where the boot is (go!)
Kicking them to the street, saying this ain’t 7de laan (uhuh!)
Continue to go to Noord (uhuh!), Complain that there’s something wrong (True!)
Listen I’m not being dom
My English might be cheese boy but my struggles from the hood
At least I’m not the type of boy to sit there and be shook (No!)
Trust me bruv, I am good (uhuh!)
We gon’ keep making a change like we should
Done!
{Chorus}
Cause I’m tired of all the lying
Don’t tell me about your success
When there’s that’s people who really trying
You haven’t given your best
I’m sure that you had the passion
Why did you put it to rest?
Just say it if you can say it
Just say it if you can say it
Tired of all the lying
Don’t tell me about your success
When there’s that’s people who really trying
You haven’t given your best
I’m sure that you had the passion
Why did you put it to rest?
Just say it if you can say it
Just say it if you can say it
