[Chorus: Crash Car Burn & Maraza]
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine on me
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine down
Awe mama, awe mama
Ngelinye ilanga, ilanga liyokhanya
[Verse 1: Kwesta]
Yoh come with me as I rewalk the paths of my life
The steps that I took before I crossed paths with a mic
Raised by a single mother, i-taimer lidle phansi
Happy family days ended, angazi kanjani
I just know that he was good at sticking fists on her face
Angim'ringi blind, i waar, mom was sick of that taste
96 it was, ngavuka i-taimer lingasekho
Divorce papers on the table
Izinto azivayi ngohlelo, daddy was gone
I heard a song, "Life Goes On"
Met a new wife and a new life was born
I was without him and he's without us
Ok right, i-taimer alisekho, in moms we now trust
Pleasures like making love to her man would now crush
Cause every thing she was thinking was for or about us
The love that was stronger than steal would now rust
And now we had to make a life for ourselves without Pops
But
[Chorus: Crash Car Burn & Maraza]
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine on me
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine down
Awe mama (I keep walking, I keep walking)
Awe mama (the sun is gonna shine on me)
Ngelinye ilanga (I keep walking, I keep walking)
Ilanga liyokhanya (the sun is gonna shine down)
[Verse 2: Kwesta]
But see a second born child of this broken home
Would prove troublesome like Beckham with a broken bone
He was tryna hold his own, bamgcuz' esgela
Wadabul' iletter, uyazi umagriza uzomnyela
New school, new year but same shit again
One of the smartest kids in class expelled again
I-o'lady alicavi lenzeni, liphandana namasheleni
For intwana engalalel' enomqondo obheke eceleni
See, he'd go wild and drink with friends and not come home
King of the castle with a stolen throne
The girls loved him and he loved 'em back
And the main focus was to get dumped in a second
Yeah he did that well, yeah he was proud of that
His friends would salute him, he loved the sound of that
But lentwana ilahlekile, lelo iwaar entlek
But something happened
And he was finished and klaar with that
'Cause he knew
[Chorus: Crash Car Burn & Maraza]
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine on me
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine down
Awe mama (I keep walking, I keep walking)
Awe mama (the sun is gonna shine on me)
Ngelinye ilanga (I keep walking, I keep walking)
Ilanga liyokhanya (the sun is gonna shine down)
[Verse 3: Kwesta]
So drastic measures really had to be taken
This kid was facing the racist demons of Satan
And no one really knew what for him was waiting
Up until a studio came to the hood he was based in
Yakhululeka intwana, bajuluka abom'Rapper
Africa's most southern records made him a member
Open heartedly, they had no hidden agendas
He spat fire like he swallowed a bunch of lit candles
He got applauded everytime he recorded
And got the tightest beats 'cause his rhymes could afford 'em
Calling Zes & Kraf gave him P-Squeezy beats
J-A-B-Z's squeezed in some beats
Arkain gave him the Surreal and that shit that's on it
Bekangeke aphushe i-passion without him phoning
His mother said life was nothing but a big test
And for her, he would pass it and that's real Kwesta
[Chorus: Crash Car Burn & Maraza]
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine on me
One of these days
The sun is gonna shine down
Awe mama (I keep walking, I keep walking)
Awe mama (the sun is gonna shine on me)
Ngelinye ilanga (I keep walking, I keep walking)
Ilanga liyokhanya (the sun is gonna shine down)
