[Chorus]
(Hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya)
[Verse 1: Blaklez]
Mmh ah yes
Pain of the ghetto child, the heart of a troubled youth
Lost so many battles, we steady-searching for W’s
Never underestimate the heart of a humble dude
Especially when arrogance is the fall of a lot of fools
This is spirit of Biko, I’m here to stay cousin
Confront the enemy now or forever stay running
How you gonna tweet and in your music you gonna say nothing?
Feeding our people poison and solicit their money
What about the rapists, huh?
What about the wife-beaters?
What about false prophets acting like best friends with Jesus?
What about corrupt politicians, who’s supposed to free us?
What about God, where he at? He’s supposed to see us
What about poverty, how are we supposed to live in harmony?
What about brothers that’s broke, so they break in my property?
What about Marikana, Esidimeni? Talk to me
What about these industries where they create monopolies?
[Chorus]
Re magwala a chechele
(Magwala a chechele, a chechele moraho)
Hoya (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Re magwala a chechele
(Magwala a chechele, a chechele moraho)
Hoya (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
[Verse 2]
I speak the truth on the Blondie sample that’s heavenly
You old men sleeping with young girls that are seventeen
Where’s your integrity? Ain’t hearing what you telling me
I blame the fans for guessing these damn celebrities
Netflix generation, hashtag culture
Vultures “So and so must fall”, you just shut your mouth
Privileged kids brag about this and that, they all surround us
While [?] , I built it from the ground up
Black lives matter, but you don’t really care to be
A real brother to me, you be acting like my enemy
Sabotage me with your people, you hope I’ll never be
Anything above the standards you think I’ll never reach
It’s really sad when black faces are sponsored with black hate
Minimum wage, little cheese, stuck in a rat race
Trying to motivate yourself, waking up with a sad face
Hope we don’t crash from a life that we living fast-paced
[Chorus]
(Magwala a chechele, a chechele moraho)
Hoya (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Re magwala a chechele
(Magwala a chechele, a chechele moraho)
Hoya (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
[Verse 3: Zano]
When all is said and done
We’ll be remembered as animals
Another lost generation
When all is said and done
We’ll be able to look at children in the eyes
And tell them the truth about us
Aw kumnyama, khanyisani, phakamani
Eh kumnyama, khanyisani, phakamani
Eh kumnyama, khanyisani, phakamani bo
Eh kumnyama, khanyisani, phakamani
Aw kumnyama bo
[Chorus]
Re magwala a chechele
(Magwala a chechele, a chechele moraho)
Hoya (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Re magwala a chechele
(Magwala a chechele, a chechele moraho)
Hoya (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
Hoya rona (hoya rona) hoya rona (hoya rona)
Hoya rona (hoya rona ba pelo tse thata ko pele)
