Rise
Black beast who that be that's me really
You mad at me it sucks to be you and your fantasies
Now we mourning your existence what a tragedy
I'm royalty graduate from Mr T your Majesty
I'm a dream but don't sleep on me
You daydreaming while I'm living my dream I don't need to sleep homie
Every girl you ask out wanna sleep on it
The same night she with me while you keep calling
You still whining we getting drunk off a grapefruit
See the similarities not really I don't blame you
I'm tryna school these dropouts but they hate hate the truth
Respect the greats dude stop being ungrateful
Life is easy when you don't really care too much
We the gods but you ain't gotta say a prayer to us
No blasphemy the Lord is not mad at me
I follow Jesus Christ so these demons ain't having me
As time goes on
They keep on saying we gon fall but we gon rise
La la la la la
They keep on talking we keep on walking
We still bosses and we gon rise
La la la la la
From the Cape to Gauteng
DBN Mahlanyeng to the North Mafikeng
Every hood dicorneng
We gon rise
La la la la la
From the Cape to Gauteng
DBN Mahlanyeng to the North Mafikeng
Every hood dicorneng
We gon rise
La la la la la
Look I'm the real boy yeah I felt the need to write this
You must be out of your damn mind if you think I'd like this
From what I hear homeboy you don't spit out the nicest
Got no bars like a dude with no liquor licence
Come on
I've been nice from the get go
But I've never spent a night at the mat though
I had shine no ice on my neck though
Now the kid is on the same flights as Terry Pheto
And the mood up
I guess I moved up
I'm on a plan cause I wanna get the loot up
In the crib with a honey going oh uuh
Been dope like I'm in the spot when niggas shoot up
And I ain't think I was this fit
Boy in the game with some lames now are misfits
Huh
And they praise how I flip this
The day that I leave I don't think I'ma miss this
As time goes on
They keep on saying we gon fall but we gon rise
La la la la la
They keep on talking we keep on walking
We still bosses and we gon rise
La la la la la
From the Cape to Gauteng
DBN Mahlanyeng to the North Mafikeng
Every hood dicorneng
We gon' rise
La la la la la
From to to Gauteng
DBN Mahlanyeng to the North Mafikeng
Every hood dicorneng
We gon rise
La la la la la
Rappers keep starving the streets it's straight Ramadan
These rappers is weak and cheesier than parmesan
And I'm about to beast picked you a phenomenon
Yeah I'm from the realest streets Joburg city Babylon
Hell's kitchen that's where we dwell living
Was raised there
Name's Maggz but it's spelled different
It's M put an A make idlapha look away
Cause we got more stylish kicks than the cool more
That's why they super hate
Mara abay fela boy
The only thing abanayo vele yi'ey'thele
Ringa baaie gossiping
Ring of fire toss them in
And while they in the bottom we in the higher opposite
From van toeka present to the future
Told you that we in the building and I'm the still the super
Ak'na k'thatha iskhundla
Bheka untwana moved up
Still will put you in a box if uzama uk'hlupha
As time goes on
They keep on saying we gon fall but we gon rise
La la la la la
They keep on talking we keep on walking
We still bosses and we gon rise
La la la la la
From the Cape to Gauteng
DBN Mahlanyeng to the North Mafikeng
Every hood dicorneng
We gon rise
La la la la la
From the Cape to Gauteng
DBN Mahlanyeng to the North Mafikeng
Every hood dicorneng
We gon rise
La la la la la
Yeah
That chain you got on ain't blinding nobody but yourself
Your vision is all messed up
You can't see us cause we beyond you man
Tell your friends to tell their friends, we here
