The Man Lyrics by Sipho the Gift

Kintsugi

2017

[Hook]
Best believe you talkin' to the man, oh yes I am
They tried to tell me that I can't, Ibet I can
No we don't listen to them haters, no never them
Until you walked up in my shoes you'll never understand
Best believe you talkin' to the man, oh yes I am
They tried to tell me that I can't, well I bet I can
No we don't listen to them haters, no never them
Until you walked up in my shoes you'll never understand
Best believe you talkin' to the man
[Verse 1]
I remember when the hustle yeah was really moving slow
I was sleeping on these couches, I was sleeping on the floor
No where else to go, when I got it don't pick up the phone
But I had to be a man, I had to get it on my own
But I stayed up on my hustle man, I dropped that phanda mo
Felt incredible, now they say the boy is net to blow
I think you should know 'fore it happens, seen it all before
Rocking stages, making classics, [?]
Even those who hated before sayin' I'm the man
I just smile and act like that wasn't part of the plan
Oh man, dollar bills like a movie
But it happened to me truly [?] struu
[Hook]
Best believe you talkin' to the man, oh yes I am
They tried to tell me that I can't, Ibet I can
No we don't listen to them haters, no never them
Until you walked up in my shoes you'll never understand
Best believe you talkin' to the man, oh yes I am
They tried to tell me that I can't, well I bet I can
No we don't listen to them haters, no never them
Until you walked up in my shoes you'll never understand
Best believe you talkin' to the man
[Verse 2]
[?]
Tryna, get it by the boatload
I'ma, hit 'em with the combo
They only move when I say so
Wena lapho, bhek' indaba zakho
Hey, where were you, when all we could do was struggle?
Cooking hits like pots up on a stove
Then I deliver on to your door
I'm the one I think that you should know, [?]
And I'm playing [?] on all of the keys
Before you converse, better fall on your knees
[?]
I'm going up like a hundred degrees, yeah
[Hook]
Best believe you talkin' to the man, oh yes I am
They tried to tell me that I can't, Ibet I can
No we don't listen to them haters, no never them
Until you walked up in my shoes you'll never understand
Best believe you talkin' to the man, oh yes I am
They tried to tell me that I can't, well I bet I can
No we don't listen to them haters, no never them
Until you walked up in my shoes you'll never understand
Best believe you talkin' to the man
[Outro]
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
Best believe you talkin' to the man
