Lyrics For Nobodies By Stogie T Ft Ayanda Jiya
[Verse 1]
Fleas dream of buying a dog
Something to work towards
The nobodies don’t wanna be poor
They just hoping for luck
One magical day it will suddenly rain
Good luck but that don’t add up
Good luck don’t fall or drizzle, might trickle with wishful thoughts
No matter how hard the nobodies summon they still starve alone
Off and on in between the bottle store and the house of God
Could start the day off on a good foot
Good look but with no bite in they woof woof
They end up watching JubJub
Nobodies meet nobodies and have nobody children
Cohabit in those shanty towns no property shields them
The no-one’s dying through life fucked upwards and down
Running like brown rabbits in the wild that’s hunted for prize
[Chorus: Ayanda Jiya]
Oh I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
Won’t you save me
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
Won’t you save me
[Verse 2: Stogie T]
The nobodies are not but could be
They do speak in dialects not languages
Music misunderstood still
Groovy, look how they move but life stood still
No religion it’s superstitions they say roots heal
No medicine, opiates utopian good feel
They don’t create art only hand crafted souvenirs
That ain’t culture it’s folklore, they fall short
Not human beings, but human resources, work force
No faces but arms, no names but just numbers
No pages in the annals of history
Just papers with gossip
The open veins of nations discarded, Galeano depicted
Nobodies ain’t worth the bullet that kills them
[Chorus: Ayanda Jiya]
Oh I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
Won’t you save me
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
I am just a, I’m just a nobody
Won’t you save me
