Cool Slaves

[Intro]
Aah yes! Mh

[Verse 1]
For the spirit of Biko, blacker the berry, we a beautiful people
It's a celebration, we fillin' the streets bro
Moretelo park, chilling in the gazebos
Good vibes from the people I keep close
We got team spirit so the liquor is free-flowing
The rap Steve Biko, you know who I speak for
You broke the law when being black was illegal (aah yes)
(Mh) go ahead and let the real know
I was blessed with a gift that they would kill for
You looking for a hero? That's what I'm built for
I'm right under your nose man, I am real dope
It's a new day, bring forth a new wave
We crack smiles like we advertising toothpaste
I need more so I packed a suitcase
I wanna break free like Robert Sobukwe
But freedom ain't free, we just bought some new chains
We in the club looking like a bunch of new slaves

[Pre-hook]
They say "You way too conscious, let the drama go."
What you expect from me? Should I be comatose?
Jozi never changed me, I hope my Mama knows
I'm getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people, number seven with the double 0
And tell a superficial celebrity "Run along."
Jozi never changed me, I hope my Mama knows
I'm getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people, number seven with the double 0
And tell a superficial celebrity "Run along."

[Sampled Chorus]
Aah yes!

[Verse 2]
Where I come from there's lots of broke people
We chase chips, this for the love of Doritos
Greed is a cancer, when you're broke there's no chemo
It's a trap, there's no Travis, no Migos
When you had a long day then you bump into an ex with a new partner on the Insta explore page
I brush it off like it's okay
I stay focused and keep my life from going the wrong way
They say "Don't speak politics, you won't win" but we need change, that comes with strong winds
We want real issues, here we go again, they'd rather tell you about Dj Zinhle's boyfriend
Retla reng mara? Music is our bread and butter. They telling me "If you wanna eat otla didimala."
Unfortunately for them Biko hase legwala
Told you when I speak ke involve'a pelo pele baba
There he go, stay spittin' that fuego
The rap Steve Biko, the black Paulo Couhello
We tryna take nyaope out the ghetto
We're tryna find natural ways of boitumelo

[Pre-hook]
They say "You way too conscious, let the drama go."
What you expect from me? Should I be comatose?
Jozi never changed me, I hope my Mama knows
I'm getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people, number seven with the double 0
And tell a superficial celebrity "Run along."
Jozi never changed me, I hope my Mama knows
I'm getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
Jozi never changed me, I hope my Mama knows
I'm getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people, number seven with the double 0
And tell a superficial celebrity "Run along."
