Cashless Society

[Intro]
"Other than 1950 Group areas act, the government created racially segregated areas and forcibly removed people from neighbourhoods reserved for white people. From 1950 until 1983 one of the largest mass removals in modern history took place."

[Verse 1: Reason]
I'm from a cashless society (K1!)
The biggest part of the economy (Jozi)
Where poverty is the equality (Equality)
And everything happening violently (Jozi)
But then we talk about it quietly (Yoh)
And then we go about it cowardly (Yoh)
'Cause getting arrested is never a stress for them niggas
They always gon' cop a plea (Iyoh)
That's when they come back with a lot of beef (Bang!)
Like they're from Miami, with all the heat (Sheesh)
They wanting your numbers like lotteries
But like winning a Grammy you gotta speak
They telling you shut up and drop your knees (Telling you)
You screaming and begging "Oh stop it please" (Please!)
They not even asking you properly (Never!)
With your wife and the kids in the property
K1, K1, K1, I don't know who's safe though (I don't know)
We want paper major, anything gon' change though (I don't know)
These drugs make us wake up, get the money any way though (Get it!)
They just make us braver, you can ask my nigga Dajo (Tell em!)
Nearly lost a finger tryna figure why these little niggas got hate though (Why?)
Could've been the bigger nigga (Why?)
Let it simmer, but it got a little racial (Why?)
So then he went again 'cause he wouldn't let [?] (Feel it)
Little did he get it
You can never get a hater nigga tryna waste you (Tell em!)

"Though apartheid was officially terminated in 1994, throughout South Africa neighbourhoods are mainly structurally segregated and the vast majority of black citizens are in poverty"

[Verse 2: Ginger Trill]
I'm from a broken society (Yeah)
Lowest part of the economy
Colonizers stole the land from us
But I'm not about the polotik (No!)
Bottom line, we at the bottom still
You gotta buy the land you want some property (Buy it!)
Wasn't educated properly (No!)
Fuck I know about a title deed? (What?)
Prolly catch me at the intersection with a sign that says:
"Please hire me (Please!)
No food, no money, no one to look up to or inspire me"
The only people who survive here
Are doin' crime here, that's the irony (Damn!)
But my people tired of crying here, busy dyin' here
At the bottom of the crab bucket that we call society
Hospitals got no cash (Damn!)
Cop stations - no vans
Skater kids got no Vans (Damn!)
Skater park got no ramps
Thugs hang around and gang bang
Kids caught up in the crossfire over turf wars, gangland
Swipe-swipe no cash
My people ride or die, no gas
For the right price, know some bad guys who could drive by your mans
Night-night no lullaby, yeah I'm talking about the other side
My people come from the other side
Where you either overcome or otherwise
Become a victim of a system
Perfectly designed for you to not survive in (Perfectly)
Like when nyaope hit the township
Had them teenage boys wildin' (Damn!)
Lives lost over violence, gun shots, screams, sirens (Damn!)
Cameras ain't go live there
They forgot about us, I remind them
