Lyrics For Cool Slaves by Blaklez
Ay yes
[Verse 1]
For the spirit of Biko
The blacker the berry a beautiful people
It’s a celebration
We’re filling the streets bro
Moretele Park chillin’ under gazzebos
It’s a good vibe from the peole I keep close
We got team spirit so the liquoar is free flow
The rap Steve Biko
You know who I speak for
We broke the law when being black was illegal
Ah yes go ahead and let the real know
I was blessed with a gift that they will kill for
You’re looking for a hero?
That’s what I’m built for
I’m right under your nose
Man, I am real dope
It’s a new day bring forth a new way
We crack smiles like we’re advertising toothpaste
I need more
So I pack a suitcase
I wanna break free like Robert Sobukwe
But freedom ain’t free
We just bought some new chains
We in the club looking like a bunch of new slaves
They say you’re way to conscious
Let the drama go
What you expect from me?
Should I be comatose?
Jozi never changed me
I hope my mama knows
I’m getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people
Number 7 with the 00
And tell a superficial celebrity run along
Jozi never changed me
I hope my mama knows
I’m getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people
Number 7 with the 00
And tell a superficial celebrity run along
[Chorus]
Eye to eye
So far away
[Verse2]
Where I come from there’s lots of broke people
We change chips just for the love of Doritos
Greed is a Cancer
When you’re broke there’s no chemo
It’s a trap there’s no Travis No Migos
When you had a long day
Then you bump into an ex with a new partner on the Insta explore page
I brush it off like it’s ok
I stay focused and keep my life from going the wrong way
They say don’t speak politics you won’t win
But we need change that comes with strong winds
We want real issues here we go again
They’d rather tell you about DJ Zinhle’s boyfriend
Re tla reng mara?
Music is our bread and butter
They telling me if you wanna eat o tla didimala
But Unfortunately for them Biko ha se legwala
Told you when I speak ke involva pelo pele baba
There he go he stay spitting that fuego
The rap Steve Biko
The black Paulo Cuelho
We try take nyaope out the ghetto
Try find natural ways of Boitumelo
They say you’re way to conscious
Let the drama go
What you expect from me?
Should I be comatose?
Jozi never changed me
I hope my mama knows
I’m getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people
Number 7 with the 00
And tell a superficial celebrity run along
Jozi never changed me
I hope my mama knows
I’m getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people
Number 7 with the 00
And tell a superficial celebrity run along
Jozi never changed me
I hope my mama knows
I’m getting love from Kuruman to Mamelodi
I bond with the people
Number 7 with the 00
And tell a superficial celebrity run along
[Chorus]
Eye to eye
So far away
