Long Journey Lyrics by DALA FAM

0

[Intro]
Don't mix the blunts with the raps and the raps with the blunts
Just make music and be you
[Hook]
It's been a long journey
Ni huma kule and its a long journey
(I'm from far and its a long journey)
What a long long journey
Mara nizeli ni fika Joni
(But I made it to Joburg)
[Verse 1]
See at age 13 still a little kid
I'd mix the poetry up and get a little lit
I would see Jay Z on them posters, putting the coast up
Like: Gaza (Tsonga Nation) I've got you, all I need is composure
I mean, I mean
I've seen, I've seen
Everything I'm seeing now and its been all a dream
Peer pressure got me sipping on that lean
Still first class grade and hood anyways
My niggas were with me and they was slaying (dealing drugs)
When I had to hit the books, but the rhymes kept playing
And the melodies are still controlling me
Another technician can't be all I'm born and raised to be
Nah
Imma let it breathe
I translate thoughts, I'm on telepathy
Feel the empathy, we were born to rhyme and tell the story way ahead of the time
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
See me, I'm tryna build the youth
Let's get a little education and we'll see the truth
Who knows, you could be another superstar
But they are telling you to be a doctor
Front cover you could be on that magazine
But that education system got you locked up
And its funny how they say we got a choice
Deep down we all know we ain't got a voice
If your uneducated your the enemy
Outcast, use your talent as the remedy
They say mathematics is the recipe
When solving for X is the death of me
Nah
Me I want my pen game to remain on 100 as I make another 100k (R100 000)
I would rather chase dreams than be caught up in a government cubicle all day
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
Twana
I've got a spark I'm igniting
I keep on talking to my diary
We passed the stage of surviving
I wanna change another generation
Me I'm building a society
So we could have it all in variety
Lool at all the pain that inspired me
I'm just another rebel when its time to leave
[Bridge] x2
Swa tika loko vanhu vanga yingiseli
(Its hard when people don't listen to your music)
Vatswari vari vona avahati ngheni
(Parents have given up hope)
Ikhale se ukha uya ka Makapeni
(You've been going to the studio for too long now)
Uta swi kota swa ku hanya hi ti peni
(How will you survive on cents)
[Hook & Outro]
Yea man
This is just something that I felt in my heart you know
I've always had this track written somewhere deep down within my heart
I never thought I would put it out there but I was like you know what? Let me just do it. Cause people need to hear the truth you know what I mean
Twana
I had a long long journey
Ni huma kule mina boss
(I've come a ling way)
I said it's been a long journey
Mara nizeli ni fika Joni
(I made it to Joburg)
