Lyrics to Hlasela by Sjava Ft Nasty C, Gigi Lamayne, Emtee, Kwesta, Riky Rick & Reason
[Intro: Reason]
So we take over the summer
Freedom of speech armoured like they did in Marikana
Rest in peace to all the martyrs
We will forever conquer
Cause you struggled
And now honoured
I say vuka, vuka, vuka
[Hook: Sjava]

[Verse 1: Nasty C]
Crooked ways they gon straight
They young and brave they caught strays
The young young Hectors’ who could run for the rest of them got
Put to bed by the feds in their dark ways cause they speak another language
Killed by a piece when he was tryna find peace, for a piece of understanding
4 centuries and still no sense around it
But in return the young and free get a reach for another planet
I’m… there’s so much to be grateful for,
The mere option of being great or poor,
Iv’e seen products of what the great is for,
Young C is a product man what you waiting for?
Go out and go for gold own the moment,
Man that’s what a wise man once told me,
When the coldest speak they don’t need it sugar coat it,
Tell them straight they could never damn your future if you hold it
Yeah
[Verse 2: Gigi Lamayne]
Graduated in the year 2016
Parents won’t relate
I got these dreams in the 16
Pressure to the metal
Steam it up, like a kettle
And we shine bright
Even in the whispers of the devil
Uzomosha
Lama bhari, tryna cut us off our dreams
But we fight with every breath
Every fist
Every being
The power to the people
And the power was within
It’s Gigi to Lamayne
In a voice for the queens
[Hook: Sjava]

[Verse 3: Emtee]
Never give up the fighting
Keep going till you get it right
Look at me
I was praying every night in the studio
With pain all I did was write
You don’t have to be a rapper
You don’t have to be a well known actor
You just gotta fulfill your soul feel free mfanakhiti
You will see the rest after
Hlasela hlasela mgan wam
Indlala khumel’ iphelel nomakanjan
Get it how you live (how you live)
Nagegela abantwana at the crib
Hlasela hlasela mgan wam
Indlala khumel’ iphelel nomakanjan
Get it how you live (how you live)
Never lie to the kids
[Verse 4: Kwesta]
Lights off
I wish a long life for those who fight for it
Put your lighters up for those who paid the price for it
Blood on the land that’s some heck to die for
Lights off
25 hour days no time off
I don’t respect for those who pay in kind for it
Lay down souls not to give it a go
But to reap the rewards
[Hook: Sjava]

Okay nank’ uBoss Zonke
Lets do like this
Nank’ uBoss Zonke
Bhek (x3)
Papa die before he can tell me the truth about his youth
So I’m looking for living proof
They did what they did
So I do what I do
Spread love
I’m praying your dreams come true
Because
Kunzima when you tryna be authentic
And everyone you wanna change you
You wishing they would listen when you saying
But you gotta keep on
You gotta, gotta keep on
Shit
[Verse 5: Reason]
Special dedication to my papa
Papa know how he get you from your mama
Even though I still don’t have a Sama
I will always shout out cause you missed a lot of summer
And so we take over the summer
Freedom of speech armoured like they did in Marikana
Rest in peace to all the martyrs
We will forever conquer
Cause you struggled
And now honoured
