Blaklez - Cool Slaves Lyrics

verse 1
For the spirit of Biko
The blacker the berry, a beautiful people
It's a celebration, we filling the streets bro
Moretele Park chilling under gazebos
Good vibes from the people like ?
We got team spirit so the liquor is free flowing
The rap Steve Biko, you know who I speak for
You broke the law when being black was illegal
Go ahead and let the real know
I was blessed with a gift that they would kill for
You looking for a her, 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 wave
We crack smiles like we avatars on tooth paste
I need more, so I packed this suitcase
I wanna break free like Robert Sobukwe
But freedom ain't free, we just bought some chains
We in the club looking like a bunch of new slaves
They say You're Way Too 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 Kuruma to Mamelodi
I bond with the people, number seven with the double-o
And tell a superficial celebrity run along

verse 2
Where I come from there's lots of broke people
We chase 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've had a long day
Then you bump into an ex with her new partner
On the Insta Explore page
I brish it off like it's okay
I stay focussed 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 boyfrined
Re tla reng mara, music is our bread and butter
They telling me If you Wanna Eat, O Tla Didimala
Unfortunately for them, Biko ha se legwala
I told you when I speak, ke involve-a pelo pele baba
There he go stage been half away though
The rap Steve Biko the black Pablo Puelo
We tryna take nyaope out the ghetto
We trayna find natural ways that we can mellow
They say You're Way Too 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 Kuruma to Mamelodi
I bond with the people, number seven with the double-o
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 seven with the double-o
And tell a superficial celebrity run along
