Lyrics:
(Chorus- Sbahle)
Ooooh oooh nananana
Can I get an Amen? (Amen) X2
Can I get Amen? (Amen) oh nananana…
An I get an Amen? (Amen) X2
Can I get an Amen (Amen) oh nanana…
(Verse1 Kid Tini)
Ah, Look,
I said I’m up writing all my wrongs
Think about it all night long
Ndixolele ngezayizolo
I’m a sinner, yeah, that I know
I might get lost but I talk to God
And at times it feel like I’m on my own
I may fall but I get back up
And I always find my way back on
Cause this road can get lengthy and wild
It’s cold to a mother with child
and though she’s not losing her faith
the devil may tempt her to try.
It’s worse for the girl on the street
Selling her soul to survive
Cause’ mom wasn’t there to advise
And pops wasn’t there to provide
I Know pain and sadly no man’s above it
Most of us try to numb it
Some of us even love it
That’s why she conceals the scars
on her wrists when she’s out in public
It don’t matter who you were
Look after who you’re becoming
(Pre-chorus- Kid Tini)
At times I just can’t help but wonder
Why this world can get so cold
Why the good can die so young
while the evil grow so old
And the truth remains untold but there’s a twist lo and behold
We will rise and we will conquer
even if it takes a toll and that’s on God
(Chorus- Sbahle)
Can I get an Amen? (Amen) X2
Can I get an Amen? (Amen) oh nanana…
bab’uzube name (Amen)
Nguw’ithemba lami (Amen)
Ngding’uthando lwakho (Amen) ooh nanana
(Verse 2- Kid Tini)
School’s an option for many
mainly for those who afford it
You sent your kid to a good one
cause’ it’s of utmost importance
He got exposed to the drugs, liquor
The cool kids are on it
“It’s just a doobie c’mon take it n@#ga, you know you want it”
Now there goes all that potential,
what you thought was essential
Groomed an addict now that high the only thing on his mental
Same place that could preserve his future, grant a life of employment?
Went and gave him all the necessary tools to destroy it
And so the story goes, tales the streets of Jozi told
Some be ballin’ some be fallin like they caught the Holy Ghost
Life’s like a tutorial-we only hole to live and learn
Buckle up enjoy the ride and pray that you don’t crash and burn
(Pre-chorus- Kid Tini)
At times I just can’t help but wonder
Why this world can get so cold.
Why the good can die so young, while the evil grow so old.
And the truth remains untold but there’s a twist lo and behold.
We will rise and we will conquer, even if it takes a toll and that’s on God.
(Chorus- Sbahle)
Can I get an Amen? (Amen) X2
Can I get an Amen? (Amen) oh nanana…
bab’uzube name (Amen)
Nguw’ithemba lami (Amen)
Ngding’uthando lwakho (Amen) ooh nanana hmm nanana
