Banyana - Hip Hop Pantsula

I’d like to dedicate this track to the two men that made me the man I am today

First and foremost, I’d like to thank my father, Robert Mandla Tsambo.

O lehipi

Secondly, I’d like to thank the late Isaac Mthethwa;

the legend, Isaac Mthethwa

This track is dedicated to every man who’s ever been hurt by a woman

Trust me ladies, I’m not talking about the men who break hearts

I’m talking about the men who’ve been broken

Fede, bona!

Have you ever loved a girl who never loved you back?

Left you in the world and never called you back?

Leaves the house, with a U-Haul pack

his sorry ass got smacked (Smacked)

It’s a fact, times have changed

Women today are nothing like back in the day

They are quick to say they’d never play

Till you are victim of a sad three-way

Anyway, corner of the story is not all women are heartless

Some are nice, some go out of their way

To show you exactly how a man is supposed to be respected

Regardless of the spice le matheithei

Women treat you the way o ba treatang

Maar some of them ba tletse makay ba ba spitang

The art is not finding lezotee

The art is living life o sa botse

Just take your time (Time)

To chill (To chill)

And feel (And feel)

Banyana o kase ba fetse

(Banyana o kase ba fetse. Ao, banyana o ka…)

Take your time (Time)

To heal (Heal)

For real, banyana o kase ba fetse

(Banyana o kase ba… banyana o kase ba fetse.)

Banyana ba tshwana le tax (They keep coming without fail)

Ha ole flex (Maybe hao mind ho phela vuil)

See my ex, love her to death and always will

But if I ever get to marry, no, that would be ill

No need to be in a rush (Take your time)

Ja easy, find love on a hush

Have fun, ha o itse (Maybe)

Just around the corner comes a better half

But then you can’t afford a life you never had

(You can say I’m evidence)

Gore hearts do heal (Heal)

Living proof gore men too do feel

Sometimes women hate a man feels too real

(But trust me, ladies. Not every nigga wants you to kneel.)

Be yourself (Love your friends)

And love your family (Love your kids)

Love yourself (And the whole community)

Ao, the art is not finding a man

The art knowing gore you can

Just take your time (Time)

To chill (To chill)

And feel (And feel)

Banyana o kase ba fetse

Just take your time (Time)

To chill (To chill)

And feel (And feel)

Banyana o kase ba fetse

(Haha! Banyana o kase ba fetse)

Take your time (Time)

To heal (To heal)

For real (For real)

(Mama told me. Banyana o kase ba… Banyana o kase ba fetse)

You’ve got to deal with it (Deal with it)

Whenever you are feeling kinda down

But don’t believe in it (Ka o chaela)

One day you frown is gon' be upside down

You’ve got to deal with it (Deal with it)

Whenever you are feeling kinda down

(For real these things happen, they’ve happened to the best of us.)

But don’t believe in it (Ka o chaela)

One day you frown is gon' be upside down

Just take your time (Time)

To chill (To chill)

And feel (And feel)

Banyana o kase ba fetse

Take your time (Time)

To chill (To chill)

And feel (And feel)

Take your time (Time)

To chill (To chill)

And feel (And feel)

Take your time (Time)

To heal (To heal)

For real (For real)

Banyana o kase ba fetse

You’ve got to deal with it (Deal with it)

Whenever you are feeling kinda down

But don’t believe in it (Ka o chaela)

One day you frown is gon' be upside down
