Mellisa Pink

[Verse 1]
How bad you are I can't describe it
Whisper song on candy skies
Mellisa, a hipster, her kissers, her dimples
She had wonderful windows
Maka crossa the road cause ingozi
U'Mellisa ingolizi
Gabriella send messages saying she buy iskelem
Bought a co-signers sheet
Said you and I should be a we
But she did not know me and I didn't know she (wowzers)
If she let me I would never clown her
For you I would put s'dom-jon down

Mellisa ask me where I am from (Senaoane Navaron)
Thought she would judge Soweto so I said the North (Ngay'jutha lengani)
Looked at me as if I am proposing an oath
Could she see the lies in my throat
Or does she only rock with the boys who came from ekasi and all
Or maybe both

[Chorus]
Mellisa had the pink high tops brand new
A piercing on her tongue and her pink spot too
See all I did was lie when all she wanted was the truth
Pretended I was North when I should've just been hood
Black boy say kasi
White boy say hood
Black girl say kasi
White girl say hood
Mawuphuma ekasi, noma ungakaze, noma ungalazi nyakaza
Black folk say kasi
White folk say hood

[Verse 2]
I need you to know
It be so hard for me to show
I feel like Nelson its like mama boppin for dope
Father touching little girls
Yeah I feel ashamed that I felt ashamed
Sometimes when I cook codein
In this whole entire thing
Outcast, reject, low class, no swag
But she didn't mind that I
Was broke, all she minded were lies
Muhlambe I should've told u'Mellisa daai dag
Ukuthi mina ngiyi ntwana yase kasi
Ukuthi mina ngibonile, ngibolile
Le nhliziyo yami bathi kade ibhodlile
Sure vele ngonile
Ubu innocent bami kade bufile
Stru snaai kusazonyiwa
Haai snaai kusazonyiwa
Mangabe une'kinga
Umgabe one'nkabi wuye i'king
The really is no in between, I can try but still can't imagine
Imagine I told her those things
What would it have changed, the pain
Made me as hood as can be
This proud Sowetan that you see
Sengiphanda indode efile cause Mellis'

[Chorus]
Mellisa had the pink high tops brand new
A piercing on her tongue and her pink spot too
See all I did was lie when all she wanted was the truth
Pretended I was North when I should've just been hood
Black boy say kasi
White boy say hood
Black girl say kasi
White girl say hood
Mawuphuma ekasi, noma ungakaze, noma ungalazi nyakaza
Black folk say kasi
White folk say hood

[Part 2 - Saudi]
The wrong way, yeah
I ain't never went right, never left my demons lonely that's a dream
My only'est one
So many trips e Moroka
Stole everything under the sun for her
So she can say me I am the one for
That my baby or atleast what I thought of her
Ooooh I was South side, she was North
And you said you will be down till it's over
I was from e'sgogweni by the corner
Her apartment paid for by her father
Mansion e'Winchester
Did I mention,when mansions were mentioned by friends and our classmates
The last thing I'd mentioned
Imagine me leaving the township and stacking me up a few thousands
Let alone imagine me in a mansion or even conventional family
I am likely quite lucky even though
She ain't ever ever holding me down, no
So many times I tried
I guess I been trying too hard
I guess I was born to be dawg
Dolphin (Saudi) the morphine must've been in afina, I am a fiend
Mellisa must have been Gwedish Ntashe in my blue ministry
Broke but I still tivoli'd
So devoted to her I'd catch a body for her anybody
Jesu baba ngicela uxolo
So many times sent to SANCA
Stole so many thou's from my uncle
Just so she can say me I am the one for
And it's because I didn't grew up in a bando, I grew up a bando
That's why I am cold even in December
Black out I stayed lit as candle
Ama groot man wami ain't never fucked nama vandal then so
Us getting money was dangerous
But I was too caught up in the angel dust
I'd turn anyone into angel dust
If ever you would ever try gaming her
Mellisa made me wanna turn her into
Mellisa baby mama, Mellisa boo
Mellisa pink she was so beautiful
That Mellisa she must have been Lucifer
