Weh tsotsi I'm telling you
That what you've got is nothing new
Had faith in you but stopped believin'
It's not too long you'll be removed

There's no way you'll stop this fire
Your greed for wealth won't last forever
Been using me to get whatever
Now that you're there you don't remember

Prison and death fighting for freedom
Slovo, Tambo, Hani and Biko
Are you kidding me and killing me
Not now, not ever

And the fire is burning inside me
I won't fight it because of you
Masibase umlilo masibase
Yizani
This is our homeland too

We're a people of substance and truth (Hay hay yeh)
Tried and tested living proof (Hay hay yeh)
This freedom never came so easy (Hay hay yeh)
Now that it's here let's all enjoy

We're all behind you siyavaya
No never stop restart the fire
Get up, stand up, nina masoja
Mama, tata, nani bazala

What do you say children are starving?
What do you say people are dying?
Uzoyithola kanjan'uhlel'ekoneni

And the fire is burning inside me
I won't fight it because of you
Masibase umlilo masibase
Yizani
This is our homeland too

Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)
Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)

And the fire is burning inside me
I won't fight it because of you
Masibase umlilo masibase
Yizani
This is our homeland too

Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)
Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)

Let me take it from here
Let's gooo
Sho ngizolokhu ngile kasi lami
Ngifak'iinkuni eziko sibabasa
Silokhu sivuthile uma sigadla
Sihlanganis'izizwe la eMzansi
We boast, we ease and are inspired
By fighters who brought peace to us masses
We never speak without fire
Come bite us, now say cheers without glasses
I'ma blast this
Life yokuphila cashless
The plan is to eliminate lama guest list
Sonke siyafana akusiz'ukulokho sipanic-a
But stand your ground, keep moving till we make it

We first mapped it
And executed it
Ngis'shay'isfuba, you'll think I'm ass smelling
From the cut teeth, thina asinaku lose-a

And now we're ready
Sisakrob'ama corner, kukhal'izkhokho zakhona
Mawusibona sigobondel'idollar ikhona kumel'ikhona
Sihlokoloza sishone kumele kukhonanyana sibase
Sibase kwafreedom
From you to me
You to them, them to us, then we're trusting each other
From lose to win, we preach Guz

Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)
Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)

Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)
Umlilo ngithi (Masibase)
Gather around the fire (Masibase)

Masibase
Masibase
Masibase
