hook
Young Mandela, young Mandela
Young Mandela, young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
Dealing with an old vendetta
We gon need a bigger antenna
I might need spirit like Kwesta
They might look at us like Mecca
Young Mandela
verse 1
You gotta give me the crown
You gotta give me the sound
Making moves for the people
Man you gotta give me the crowd
I gotta give inspiration
You gotta give it around
I’m going pound for a pound
‘Cause I date to bust it down
I got the power to move you
I got the power to lose you, I never play
I gotta give you a voice
And I gotta give you a choice
For a better day
Thandazel’ unkulunkulu yey
Fun’ uk’khanya nje ngezulu yey
We can never call a truice
I will never ever lose
I feel like a young Mandela
Supa Mega ey I’m waving the flag like it’s checkered
Never measure ey, I be spitting diamonds under pressure
Check the record ey
My verses be barking, German Shepherd
Check the texture, truth is I’m a monster
Young Mandela I be bobbing like a boxer
Young Mandela I be fighting just to prosper
Getting money, you can see the posture
hook
Young Mandela, young Mandela
Young Mandela, young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
Dealing with an old vendetta
We gon need a bigger antenna
I might need spirit like Kwesta
They might look at us like Mecca
‘Cause this is a brand new era
You selling the wrong aesthetic
I feel like you just don’t get it
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
Young Mandela
Treat me like a young Mandela
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
verse 2
Yeah this is a hard pandemic
Everybody’s so prosthetic
They’re just showing up for the credit
I’m throwing you a bone, go get it
Spit straight venom
Somebody call the paramedics
This shit is a drug, so septic
But we gon run it out, athletics
Hit another city with my team
I was following my dreams
Left my youngin in the East
Tell him that his daddy is a beats
Making sure that he can eat
Whether living or deceased
Why you overdosing on the tweets
But you can’t say a word on the streets
We’re out here tryna hustle for the land
But you too busy worried ’bout the gram
hook
I feel like a young Mandela
Dealing with an old vendetta
We gon need a bigger antenna
I might need spirit like Kwesta
They might look at us like Mecca
‘Cause this is a brand new era
You selling the wrong aesthetic
I feel like you just don’t get it
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
Young Mandela
Treat me like a young Mandela
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
Treat me like a young Mandela
