Broke People Lyrics by Tumi

Return of the King

0

[Verse 1: Stogie-T]
I see broke people, heart-broke people
Down low, sharing-homes-with-cockroach people
Yeah, broke people, no-J.O people
No loan, mashonisa, break-your-bones people
I mean broke people, catch-a-stroke people
Hospital won’t treat you, go-and-die-alone people
Know any broke people?
On TV-shows people
30 minutes won’t fit their life-long sequel
I’ve seen broke people
The ones with broke people
Get their cheques for bringing death on their own people
[Chorus: Samthing Soweto]
Where have you been?
E’kanti aw’bon’ abantu bayalamba?
S’thule nje, kodwa sibizi sizilungiselela
Ukuthatha ok'ngokwethu
Ukufuna umnotho wethu
He’bafethu ngcel’umthandazo ngobinzima lendlela
[Verse 2: Stogie-T]
I see broke people, go-slow people
They don’t vote for ideas, they voting for people
Yeah broke people, stand-in-a-cold people
In their numbers, tryna-win-the-lotto people
I mean those people, shebeen-going people
At the club, guarding-your-Volvo people
Know any broke people? That might've stolen from people
Get caught and killed off, put-in-a-hole people
Funeral people, no-insurance people
And what do you know? They get survived by broke people
I’ve seen ’em all in the malls cleaning store windows
No apples or books, just-spykos people
[Chorus: Samthing Soweto]
Where have you been?
E’kanti aw’bon’ abantu bayalamba?
S’thule nje, kodwa sibizi sizilungiselela
Ukuthatha ok'ngokwethu
Ukufuna umnotho wethu
He’bafethu ngcel’umthandazo ngobinzima lendlela
[Verse 3: Samthing Soweto]
You think about it man, don't step back
How we living now, we broke as hell
Ngoba asifun' uk’hlanganisa
Ukwazi ne zenzo ziyas'wisa
So now look, I'm tryna get money
Don't need no drama uyabona sbali
But then again I'm working with these guys
Cool dudes till we say our goodbyes
Then its each man to his own world
So get, things from home
Cause I was never born no, no, no
All I'm tryna get is money
Hope you understand real money
[Chorus: Samthing Soweto]
Where have you been?
E’kanti aw’bon’ abantu bayalamba?
S’thule nje, kodwa sibizi sizilungiselela
Ukuthatha ok'ngokwethu
Ukufuna umnotho wethu
He’bafethu ngcel’umthandazo ngobinzima lendlela
