Lyrics:
BLEKSEM
Why would you go run, if they never give up
BLEKSEM
Many nights with them names on your mind
BLEKSEM
Same time they watch your whole world go down
BLEKSEM
They wanna cut ya tongue
Seems that they wanna keep me waiting
(ah, sô right)
But I got big things in the making
(wait there, wait there, sô right)
Real power every hour, that’s the statement
(ah, sô right)
And I really wanna stand with some patience
(wait there, wait there)
The international child, Botswana national pride
They see radical mind and see it laughable mind
I couldn’t say they were kind, or had me radicalised
Cause maybe that was the pain, or maybe that was the shame
They build you up just for something to break
I guess happiness is something you make
And destiny just something you take
Or possibly just something to say
Put irrational mind on to flammable time
And that’s a notable sight of us never aligned
With all the gold that we mined, and maybe that was designed
That’s the classical rhyme, from well before we were primed
I went lookin where the truth is
But came upon where the youth is
Food for thought bringing on a toothache
Tomorrow be where the proof is
BLEKSEM
Why would you go run, if they never give up
BLEKSEM
Many nights with them names on your mind
BLEKSEM
Same time they watch your whole world go down
BLEKSEM
They wanna cut ya tongue/
Seems that they wanna keep me waiting
(ah, sô right)
But I got big things in the making
(wait there, wait there, sô right)
Real power every hour, that’s the statement
(ah, sô right)
And I really wanna stand with some patience
(wait there, wait there)
Ba nkitse ke le ngwana wa go lora
Molora mo matlhong, le ne le re le ka nkgona
Sutlha digalase, ke boraii, le tlaa itshola
Ha maduo a le shapo, lea re "mthaka o o tla nkgotsa"
Nxl... (haish) le ska mpora
Monwana o gana morogano, mme molomo oa ikuella
Ha ke tlhoka kalafi, go molemo ke tlaa ituella
Go bua nnete, le tswa kgakala le ntlhoile
Diphiri di dule, nne le re le loilwe
Mme ke le lona... ei- tlogela
Lesedi le teng, ene nna ga kea bopelwa
Go tshela ke ila batho, tseo ke tsa lona
Mme ntwa le tlaa e bona ha le sa buse tsa rona
Morena a le tshware le ska jewa ke manong
Re soka dikeledi, re tshela ka thapelo
Go molemo, karabo e tla ka jeno
