The Calling Lyrics by Touchline

Before I Say More - EP

2022

[Intro]
I hear you calling me
And I'm coming back to you
You said you'd never leave
So I'm coming back to you
I hear you calling me
And I'm coming back to you
You said you'd never leave
So I'm coming back to you

[Chorus: Touchline]
Started my mornin' fresh, I'm livin' with no regrets
Looking forward to all the things that God hasn't shown me yet
Midnight comes again, I'll be back om my lonely bed
Sleep peacefully knowin' today I gave my very best

[Verse: Touchline]
Regardless of the rejection
Some say I make them sick, some say I heal them
It's like the Johnson & Johnson injection
So far from perfection but always had good intentions
You ever felt disrespected just know that I never meant it
Just a human makin' human errors
In the drag and cancel every human era
Always tweetin', never doing era
Ngiphila ngokuz' doubt-a
But always on my A-game in case kukhona ozo scout-a
I prepared myself for this very day
Haven't spoken to my dawg Selolo in many days
But I know we straight as long as we gettin' paid
Every kid's dream is to put a smile on his Olady's face
Yes I pray but I hotspot from my Olady's faith
When I had a job interview beng'daar before bavula
Ngibanikez' i-CV bangang'thathi ngiphinde ngihamb' ngizula
When I got back home I started plannin', I used my medulla
You don't even read, you get your info from Musa Khawula
And my dreams are so big, I'm scared of them too
Zolile doesn't only make the beats, he's my therapist too
When I was depressed there was nothin' my parents could do
I just don't think they'd understand what an artist goes through
Wear the same outfit on different pictures, they label you 'broke'
These promoters always book you quick but the payment is slow
Kanti am I not the reason all these kids came to the show?
We do not get rich from just being famous, you know?
Didn't want this life, it came to us
The gas struggle continues, that's forty rand a litre
Continua, nothing truer
Need less talkers, more doers
Actions over captions, less politicians to screw us
After working McDonald's, I sold cigarettes
My mind was so limitless
Grinding for success, angiphel' moya, I know it's imminent
Critics say "That flow is a lot like Pro's, isn't it?'
Of course, that's the goat's influence
And I put my soul into it
Turned myself into something the kids can believe in
Give rap a different meaning
I don't judge her even though she works a 9 to 5 by day and winding her hips in the evening
As long as her kids will be eating
Lana kushubile sbali, heh uzophuma kanjani?
Thesha, ukuphupha akusa spani
Nokuvaya ebusuku akusafani
Absolutely nothing that a thug wouldn't do for the money
Vele awutholi lutho unless you're looting the loot in the country
Well, well here we are again
Happiness is something we experience every now and then
But now we up again, relyin' on God's favour
You wanna know exactly how my day was? Aha

[Chorus :Touchline]
Well I started my mornin' fresh, I'm livin' with no regrets
Looking forward to all the things that God hasn't shown me yet
Midnight comes again, I'll be back om my lonely bed
Sleep peacefully knowin' today I gave my very best (Uyang'thola?)

[Outro]
I hope u-grand kodwa mfana, u right, you know?
I mean, being depressed is never a good place to be at
'Cause sometimes I feel like, we think that we depressed by all the things, you know, that we're not getting-
But what happens when you start getting those things?
