Superman - Cassper Nyovest, Tsepo Tshola

Yeah, yeah

Yeah

Yeah, I got a little secret

I don’t know if I should keep it

Or should I put it in a verse?

I gotta thank Jesus, I just found what I’ve been seeking

And I’ma tell it to the world

It has a certain deepness

My best friend thinks I’m reaching

And I know it sounds absurd

'Cause it don’t have the features

It’s like the pyramids of Egypt

I can’t explain by the norm

My father is a superhero

'Cause he was always there to save me

When I’m in trouble and feeling helpless and caged in

He would just suddenly appear outta nowhere

And kick all my problems away

I mean it’s so clear, my father is a superhero

Man think about it

He ain’t never enough money so how did he pay for college?

How did you make me feel so rich when we were poor?

How did you make me feel so safe when it was war?

I remember growing up, we had bullies in the bus

They would bully all the kids in the bus except us

I could see it in their eyes

I think they knew that my dad was the guy

The same guy they was watching at the movies

Who takes care of the thieves and the bullies

And that is why they would do nothing to me

And that is why they would do nothing to me

I think they knew my dad might be Superman

Ooh

Yeah

Superman

I think my dad might be Superman

Ooh Superman

I think my dad might be Superman

A hero, a hero

I mean, he don’t have a cape

A hero

But in my eyes he’s just as great

My dad, Superman

Superman

How did you do it when the world tried to pick you apart?

Never broke character, never had a difference of heart

Never got credit, never wanted any

A hero without an ego, I heard there aren’t any

My best friend lost his dad at a young age

That became a lesson for the both of us at some stage

He would always tell me that he had no one to run to

Meanwhile I was angry that you couldn’t buy me some shoe

This is what it’s come to huh?

To judge our fathers by how rich they are

Which is the least important thing on the list is love

The self confidence, humility

You taught me the love of God, the Holy Trinity

Too much pressure on the male figure

You ain’t providing then you worthless

The world seems to turn a blind eye when they hurt, man

Some niggas can’t express themselves to women, so they hurt them

It’s just a vicious cycle, we really need the bible

So thank you for teaching me to believe in the Word

Thank you for teaching me to never hit a girl

Thank you for teaching me to cry when I hurt

Thank you for teaching me to take over the world

Le tyma

I wrote this song to tell you that I love you

I hope you know that there’s nobody that I’ll put above you

You’re god, you’re my father, you’re my brother and my uncle

Le tyma

I wrote this song to tell you that I love you

You are Superman

Ooh Superman

Yeah, it’s pretty clear you’re Superman

Ooh Superman

I hope that you know that you’re Superman

A hero, a hero

I mean, he don’t have a cape

A hero

But in my eyes he’s just as great

My dad, Superman

Superman

Yeah

O mpontshitse mehlolo

Ka hara lefifi la ho hola

Wang kgantshetsa tsela

Ka bona kgoro, ka bona kgoro

Ka hloella

Sehlohlolong sa thaba ya bophelo

O mpontsitse tsela

Wang kgantshetsa

Ka bona kgoro, ka bona kgoro

A hero, hero, hero

Ah what a superman
