Please pray for me
Please remember me
Good dude
Stood out the gateway bumping hood blues
Puffing nicotine while reflecting on who's who
Soul overflowing with sin dawg you have no clue
My mind racing
As I'm retracing departed times
Hope that Bambanani hears this
The metamorphous
Best told through these metaphors
As a matter of
I'll walk you down them Lady Frere streets
Pure love no thought about the glamour and glitz
Hood love get hammered while you pull up with niks
All cliques click together like D-E-C 26
Christmas gifts and sweets from uMaka Mantombi
Yo December 25 we felt so alive
Oblivious minds trapped in this envious world
It's obvious dawg we dealt with the sorrows it hurled
My vision is blurred
Good times never returned
Even my granny passed away when it was all that she yearned
Today in LF hood crimes far from deterred
And so in case I can't relive it just sample my soul
We used to play out in the rain
Used to play out in the rain
Shit is not the same now
But shit is not the same anymore
Yo yo
I'm thinking kwa Skhota flats
Dreaming of platinum plaques
Black tax reimbursed with ease
Hate to burst your bubble gee but fate is an anomaly
That robbed you of harmony, quality time with your moms
Boarding schools enclasped you
Mariana's hostel though the living hostile
It toughened you up
Thank God this music found you
The village crowned you
All of that shine but can't escape the shit around you
Aunty had a son but she was never a mother
Thirsty for fun in the city or a newfound lover
Unworthy of seeds,these streets are beyond arid
She held him by hand
9 Months he could barely stand
His early years spent far away from peers
This ain't no trip to Disneyland
Aunty was a sex worker
A pussy server
Could she nurture this youthful fella or
Would he grow to be a cellphone snatcher
Well known felon
We used to play out in the rain
Used to play out in the rain
Shit is not the same now
Yo if my feet lead me astray
I pray I retain my inner self
Yourz truly this how far we done came
We overcame all the odds and Lady Frere streets
I take you back
Lady Frere to Katlehong
Year is '22 and I'm still out here tryna get on
