Can I get an Amen
Can I get an Amen
Can I get an Amen
Oh na na na na na na na
Can I get an Amen
Can I get an Amen
Can I get an Amen
Oh na na na na na na na
verse 1
Said I'm up righting all my wrongs
Think about it all night long
Pholile ngeza izolo
I'm a sinner, yeah that I know
I might get lost but I talk to God
And at times it feel like I'm on my own
I may fall but I get back up
And I always find my way back on
'Cause this road can get lengthy and wild
It's cold to a mother with child
And though she's not losing her faith
The devil may tempt her to try
It's worse for the girl on th street
Selling her soul to survive
'Cause moms wasn't there to advise
And pops wasn't there to provide
I know pain and sadly no man's above it
Most of us try to numb it
Some of us even love it
That's why she conceals her scars when she's out in public
It don't matter who you were
Look after who you're becoming
At times I just can't help but wonder
Why this world can get so cold
Why the good can die so young
Why the evil get so old
And the truth remains untold
But there's a twist, lo and behold
We will rise and we will conquer
Even if it takes a toll
chorus
Can I get an Amen
Can I get an Amen
Can I get an Amen
Oh na na na na na na na
Bab' uzoba nami
Uyithemba lami
Nginguthando lwakho
Oh na na na
verse 2
School's an option for many
Mainly for those who afford it
You send your kis to a good one
'Cause it's of utmost importance
He got exposed to the drugs, liquor
The cool kids had brought it
It's just a doobie
Come on take it nigga, you know you want it
Now there goes all that potential
What you thought was essential
Groomed an addict
Now that high the only thing on his mental
Same place that could preserve his future
Grant a chance of employment
Went and gave him all the necessary tools to destroy it
And so the story goes
Tales the streets of Jozi told
Some be balling
Some be falling like they caught the holy ghost
Life like a tutorial
We only hope to live and learn
Buckle up, enjoy the ride
And pray that you don't crash and burn
At times I just can't help but wonder
Why this world can get so cold
Why the good can die so young
Why the evil get so old
And the truth remains untold
But there's a twist, lo and behold
We will rise and we will conquer
Even if it takes a toll
