Alexandra Township
[Intro: Char Monedi]
Ko Gomora go phandwa jaaka Ghundi le Mazwi “yeh” (Ghundi le Mazwi)
Batho ba sneya (ba sneya) “Jovislash”
Ba slayer (ba slayer) “Ahh”
[Verse 1: Jovislash]
This is the hood that I grew up in
It’s good that I blew up in
I knew I’ve been
Made by the streets of Gomtown
It’s been a long time coming
Now we’re running the rap game, I mean
We planted the seeds, we were farming
Now we reaping what we sow, so they saw us trying
We’re flying, to foreign countries we never thought
This is visionary man, look at the crib I bought
I’m still grateful flip, damn I gotta thank God
In every road and every avenue, I manoeuvre
I’m a new inspiration to the kids
I’m a new Flabba
I’m a new hope baba Linda Twala
Se ngi thwala wonk’ ama-Afrika wase kasi Hallelujah
My neighbourhood has got a rich heritage
Unga checker zonk iincwadi you can flip any page
I can show you around, if you can pitch any day
Mar’ unga deleli uzo sal’ une stitch ebusweni
[Chorus: Char Monedi]
Ko Gomora go phandwa jaaka Ghundi le Mazwi (Ghundi le Mazwi)
Batho ba sneya (ba sneya)
Ba slayer (ba slayer)
We will fly fly fly fly, siyo ndiza
‘mele si nga khali khali khali ngoba, sizo winner
Sizo winner
[Verse 2: Jovislash]
Our morning view is Sandton Morning side
This side, people randomly die of homicide
Sometimes, we see thugs and the police fight
But if you want things done, uku fak’ imal’ ye kholi is right
We dream less but we wanna drive a Maserati
Skip class to impress
We finna get the money, bathi
Here we party more than we study
Nase ikolweni it’s hard to get a B in Cardi
Elder people pass time through umqhombothi
Ba nok’ fak’ insizi ye battery ba dasher lo mtlokotsi
Bophelo bamo Mampyana bona bo kotsi
Ma felwa kgwedi ba go tshwara poo papa o gotse
Aba gherezayo ba z’vulela ama spaza shops
Nom’ i-profit incane but still baya zama sho
This is the mother of all townships
Life in Alex is too fast, we’re on track like the Grand Prix
[Chorus: Char Monedi]
Ko Gomora go phandwa jaaka Ghundi le Mazwi (Ghundi le Mazwi)
Batho ba sneya (ba sneya)
Ba slayer (ba slayer)
We will fly fly fly fly, siyo ndiza
‘mele si nga khali khali khali ngoba, sizo winner
Sizo winner (yeh)
[Verse 3: Jovislash]
Gomtown from Stjwetla to Riverpark
Ikasi lama gwindiva thug
Believer kao, we deliver now
U noku sthola s’hlel’ khon’ e Selborne
Sphushi connection e lokshini like Telkom
Via John Brant, hi home ground, we don’t front
Sphithiphithi chasing money
Uku sukele Pan, Wynberg, u zu fike Tsutsumani
Hofmeyer siya sneyer
E Roosevelt ama cab siya reya
[Chorus: Char Monedi]
Ko Gomora go phandwa jaaka Ghundi le Mazwi (Ghundi le Mazwi)
Batho ba sneya (ba sneya)
Ba slayer (ba slayer)
We will fly fly fly fly, siyo ndiza
‘mele si nga khali khali khali ngoba, sizo winner
Sizo winner (yeh)
[Outro: Char Monedi]
Sizo winner (sizo winner, sizo winner)
Sizo ndiza
“Be Bigger”
