[Intro]
Uh
Aah yes!
[Verse 1]
Who he?
Fore real, who is he?
We don't know his name but the boy gets busy
Oh, he from the hood 'burbs that's why his words so witty
No, he from the hood that's why he looks so greedy
Never mind that, this big boy's an outcast
Forget the rumours I'm the truth, we about facts
Never been rich, so we gotta worry 'bout the cash
Cause we got bills, can't afford to have our pockets flat
I love Madiba for, where he tried to take us
But sunset clauses didn't unify races
Listen, before you think my argument is baseless
We free, but we still facing all kinds of hatred
The truth is, so many black men in cages
But we gon' break out, cause we tired of being faceless
We tryna live, still tryna be famous
You don't know you, but they know what your name is
[Pre-Chorus]
Let it be known that I'd rather be alone so, please let me get in my zone (Please let me get in my zone)
I tell 'em one day (I tell 'em one day)
One day is one day (One day is one day)
[Chorus]
That's why I'm drinking in the morning (That's why I'm drinking in the morning)
I'm drinking in the afternoon (I'm drinking in the afternoon)
I'm drinking in the evening (I'm drinking in the evening)
I'm surprised I'm still breathing (I'm surprised I'm still breathing)
I'm drinking in the morning (I'm drinking in the morning)
I'm drinking in the afternoon (I'm drinking in the afternoon)
I'm drinking in the evening (I'm drinking in the evening)
I'm surprised I'm still breathing (I'm surprised I'm still breathing)
[Verse 2]
(Aah yes!)
What's wrong with you people?
You try hide but we see you
You know why? Cause you see-through
I vent out cause I need to
They try to blind me, but I see the truth
I told you, I'm not a celebrity
I'm not in the media, looking for validity
Cause of my sweet nature, they tryna skiddle me
The music gatekeepers are, still tryna get rid of me
Ya, they called my first album a soliloquy
Nothing they can do now, the people started feeling me
I won't sell my soul, man I'd rather be broke
These kids quit school, just to shoot reality shows
That's the reality bro
Damn! Where do we go?
I love my people they touch me, tangible hoes
I wanna tell you things that I know
And take my sound to the world like, Ladysmith Black Mambazo
[Pre-Chorus]
Let it be known that I'd rather be alone so, please let me get in my zone (Please let me get in my zone)
I tell 'em one day (I tell 'em one day)
One day is one day (One day is one day)
[Chorus]
That's why I'm drinking in the morning (That's why I'm drinking in the morning)
I'm drinking in the afternoon (I'm drinking in the afternoon)
I'm drinking in the evening (I'm drinking in the evening)
I'm surprised I'm still breathing (I'm surprised I'm still breathing)
I'm drinking in the morning (I'm drinking in the morning)
I'm drinking in the afternoon (I'm drinking in the afternoon)
I'm drinking in the evening (I'm drinking in the evening)
I'm surprised I'm still breathing (I'm surprised I'm still breathing)
[Outro]
Let it be known that I'd rather be alone so, please let me get in my zone (Please let me get in my zone)
I tell 'em one day (I tell 'em one day)
One day is one day (One day is one day)
