[Chorus]
Kwaphela, washona, samngcwaba
Wahamba uBusi
Sam'phelezela ngob' umshado wakhe wokugcina
The old me must die and here she lies
I guess it's time to say goodbye
Kwaphela, washona, samngcwaba
Wahamba uBusi
Sam'phelezela ngob' umshado wakhe wokugcina
The old me must die and here she lies
I guess it's time to say goodbye
[Verse 1]
Pleased the world entirely and I lost my soul behind
Let the world decide for me and a little part of me just died
With my sins I'll bury you so my future can have a chance
Someone once wise told me that the future is for the brave
Goodbye (goodbye)
Old me (old me)
Just die (just die)
So the new me could be born and rise
[Chorus]
Kwaphela, washona, samngcwaba
Wahamba uBusi
Sam'phelezela ngob' umshado wakhe wokugcina
The old me must die and here she lies
I guess it's time to say goodbye
Kwaphela, washona, samngcwaba
Wahamba uBusi
Sam'phelezela ngob' umshado wakhe wokugcina
The old me must die and here she lies
I guess it's time to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
It's over now the girl you're looking for
No she don't live here anymore
No shoulders down, she wears her crown
No she don't wanna be a clown
[Bridge]
Take off your mask now take off your mask
Show them who you really are
You see the girl that is looking back
Don't let her hide behind her scars
Take off your mask now take off your mask
Show them who you really are...
You see the girl that is looking back
Don't let her hide behind her scars
[Chorus]
Kwaphela, washona, samngcwaba
Wahamba uBusi
Sam'phelezela ngob' umshado wakhe wokugcina
The old me must die and here she lies
I guess it's time to say goodbye
Kwaphela, washona, samngcwaba
Wahamba uBusi
Sam'phelezela ngob' umshado wakhe wokugcina
The old me must die and here she lies
I guess it's time to say goodbye
