Song Lyrics:
I come from a place that is really poor
I've been tryna make it out since i was a boy
Not many graduates, but many loafers
Many struggling to keep sober
So many dope artists no exposure
HHP is gone so it's all over
Eish... let me keep my composure,
I think i should start over...
I come from a place that is really poor
When you try rise they just pull you low
"Only birds were meant to fly you should keep it low"
They fight hard work, salute Mediocre
"Cassper set the bar high, you should stay low"
Motivation from the street did you learn yoh ?
How we gonna move forward when divided though?
Can't cut the roots and still expect the tree to grow
Niggas claiming selfmade when they start to blow
They forgot about the times you times that you helped them grow
Mafikeng in my heart and in my soul
Doesn't matter where i go my heart always home
Even if it's a city that is draining hope
What can i say? Man It's still home
Niggas at the shop front always chilling yoh
When you dont chill with them your'e a cheeseboy
When you all about school you're a cheeseboy
You succeed in that town you're a miracle
Man its been a while since ive been home
Out here in Joburg city thinking about it all
And i can hear my heart man its calling home
Black man stand up go get the dough
Do you you hear me yoh?
I know you got many scars in your heart yoh
And the system aint fair cos you black yoh
Doesn't really matter where come from
Being black in this world its an extreme sport
I've been through the most here in Joburg
My heart is calling home
I'm tired of seeing a black man suffer yoh
I'm tired of seeing a black man kill another yoh
I'm tired of seeing a black man sleep on cold floors
What can i do yoh
Nigga got to break the law just to make dough
And that's something you already know .
