[Intro]
- Seasons change
- There's still time for us to run away
- Seasons change
- There's still time for us to run away
- Seasons
[Verse 1: Sjava]
- San'bonan endlini
- Sjava kaJama Indlalifa igama ley'nsizwa mina
- Ng'phuma le enzansi, kwafel ubala
- Insizwa uma ina-thirty five kthiwa is' indala
- Laph' eng'phuma khona maw'phuma khona bathi aw'fiki la
- Ngyamangala uma ngi-la
- Bebathi ng'yophelel emoyeni, ba-right
- Manje ngiy'nkanyezi
- Njengoba ngik'tshela ngempilo yami
- Ng'funa uthathe nayi imfundiso yami (lalela la wena)
- Ithemba alibulali
- Ukube l'yabulala ngabe nihamba phey'kwami
[Chorus: Sjava]
- Poverty, jealousy
- Negativity
- Ngith' angandawo la
- Go away (far away)
- Poverty, jealousy
- Negativity
- Ngith' angandawo la
- Go away (far away)
[Verse 2: Mozzy]
- I cried when lil' brotha died
- Got high and watched the sunrise
- Wiggle on 'em if it's one time
- They done hung all of my people
- I love all of my people
- I'm in the slums with all of my people
- They tryna tell us that we all equal
- We get no justice so it ain't peaceful, yeah
- They can bluff you, they can beat you
- Paid attorney, we gon' need it
- Momma told me there was demons
- And she ain't never lied on her G's
- She worked her ass off just to feed us
- She went to Ross to cop the new Adidas
- She used to tap in with all the teachers
- They wasn't teachin' nothin', it's no secret
- Whole lotta crime, lil' n***as beefin'
- We gotta keep it or end up a victim
- Trapped in the system, traffickin' drugs
- Modern-day slavery, African thugs
- We go to war for this African blood
- We go to war for this African blood
- When I put n***as on, it was all out of love
- You was disloyal, can't call it no love
[Chorus: Sjava]
- Poverty, jealousy
- Negativity
- Ngith' angandawo la
- Go away (far away)
[Verse 3: Reason]
- (Season change) You know we off the stove with it
- We stove whippin', n****as know we gon' get it
- (Season change) Dodgin' cops
- Fuck around and get locked, you ain't never comin' home with it
- Look, my n***a, I came from the sewer
- Don't shit on my past, you ain't come from manure
- You see Reason and you see LA
- But bitch I ain't come for no ruin
- Just know all of my n***as, we struggled for it
- Had to hustle for it, cried puddles for it
- My pops watched his sister get locked for it
- I done seen my n***as get knocked for it like (gunshot)
- Gimme that, I carry the llama like a piggyback
- I carry my city like guilt that ain't got no forgiveness
- No way out, shit we locked in the system
- Catch a case and they not gon' forgive ya
- White skin, you be out before Christmas
- Shit, auntie missed eight of those days
- Tears from me, had to pray those days
- Had to slave those days
- Shit, we had to hit up a couple hood giveaways those days:
- Thank God for every inch that he gave us
- Thank God for everything cause he made us
- Like when that car bent the block, blat blat
- Hit the homie but we made it, he already saved us
- Thinkin' that he could've died n***a
- We was prayin' to the sky and his momma cried rivers
- Healed up, but tough luck, he tried to get revenge
- Had to drop, bullets popped and they killed him
- Worst part is that it sound so familiar
[Outro: Kendrick Lamar]
- I am T'Challa
- I am Killmonger
- One world, one God, one family
- Celebration
