Fire in the Ghetto

[Chorus: Troublle & Kwesta]
Thatha i-cover, there's a fire in the ghetto
Loxion Kulca, mzabalazo, still the same song
Bulawayo, Katlehong, down to Soweto
Every ghetto, Dankie Yebo

Thatha i-cover, there's a fire in the ghetto
Sbonga uMdali for lamandla asiphe wona
Silwa indlala sidla uthando and remain strong
That's the ghetto, dankie yebo

[Verse 1: Kwesta]
I say power to the people
Emakasi, yeah fire up the diesel
Abasazi we gon' triumph over evil
S'hamba phansi, stabalaza impilo
Ya namanje, Sizele nje lе Tito
Ngamasaka, sistabilize isimo
Ne account ibenjе ngalabo zero
Nesalukwazi siveze naso izinyo, nakanjani
No way, angeke ulunge feleba
Ngisekhoneni, ngishera i-loose namagenge
Coconut, musa ukung'namathela
Khohlwa dali, lobhuti akathengwa, nangempela
Yini awuboni la kuyasha?
Uzobhadala what you owe namhlanje
Road block, ubhaya ikholi namhlanje
And angifuni kuzwa story namhlanje, ekse!

[Pre-Chorus: Kwesta]
Empower my people, my father, my leader
My mother, my teacher
My brother, my keeper
My sister, my healer, my Sarafina
Baba wami my leader, empower my dreamers

[Chorus: Troublle & Kwesta]
Thatha i-cover, there's a fire in the ghetto (Fire in the ghetto, oh-oh)
Loxion Kulca, mzabalazo, still the same song (Still the same song)
Bulawayo, Katlehong, down to Soweto (Down to Soweto)
Every ghetto (Every ghetto)
Dankie yebo (Dankie yebo)

Thatha i-cover, there's a fire in the ghetto (Fire in the ghetto, oh-oh)
Sbonga uMdali for lamandla asiphe wona (Asiphe wona)
Silwa indlala sidla uthando and remain strong (And remain strong)
That's the ghetto (That's the ghetto)
Dankie yebo (Dankie yebo)

[Verse 2: Kwesta]
Hay', sizwile ama wave
Aw' k'nini niloku niswima kulemali yethu?
Tax man, thola iscima kushe ugebhu
Eskom biza mina kubuye ugesi
Sifuna ukujabula jabula sibe happy, yeah
But every other day we puffing that envy
Skhala nje umalume akas'bheki
And everybody cares til it stops trending
And that's why kungala-leki
Yilama nightmares and uFreddy akadeli
Vele siyahlanya and asiba-mbeki
You sellin' us dreams kodwa awethu aniwathengi
And all I really want is true free-dom
Ng'phushe ng'phande, ngidle nginone
K'dala ngiloku ngincenga i-school fees dawg
Ngifunde ng'zame, ng'phushe ng'pope

[Pre-Chorus: Kwesta]
Empower my people (Hay' ekse!)
My father, my leader (Hay' ekse!)
My mother, my teacher (Ekse!)
My brother, my keeper (Ekse!)
My sister, my healer, my Sarafina (Hay' ekse!)
Baba wami my leader, empower my dreamers

[Chorus: Troublle & Kwetsa]
Thatha i-cover, there's a fire in the ghetto (Fire in the ghetto, oh-oh)
Loxion Kulca, mzabalazo, still the same song (Still the same song)
Bulawayo, Katlehong, down to Soweto (Down to Soweto)
Every ghetto (Every ghetto)
Dankie yebo (Dankie yebo)

Thatha i-cover, there's a fire in the ghetto (Fire in the ghetto, oh-oh)
Sbonga uMdali for lamandla asiphe wona (Asiphe wona)
Silwa indlala sidla uthando and remain strong (And remain strong)
That's the ghetto (That's the ghetto)
Dankie yebo (Dankie yebo)
