Into zomhlaba (Things of Life)
Phaphama (Wake Up)
Asikho isikhathi sokuhlala uhlanye (There's no time to sit around and be mad)
Kuyatshisa Kuyabanda (It's hot, it's cold)
Kuyabanda Kuyatshisa (It's cold, it's hot)
Skhipha iDust, Skhipha indlala (There's dust, there's poverty)
Sweet Noise!
Skhipha Malang AK eLokhshini to Poland
Zukile Aka Malang efela (Zukile the one and only)
Azishe lapho (Burn the Fire)
Azishe Azishe Azishe (Burn burn burn)
Skhipha iDust gcwala (Face the Dust)
G:
Another dawn breaking
I'm all alone
Through this nights and days on my own
I'm a lost soul knocking on your door
Victims of terror and civil war
My brothers and sisters
Living on the run
Hate to see you brake and suck their guns
Life is pain but it's hard to die
Hard to live among the thieves and lies
When the doves cry my beauty is born
Brother step for a while and make it your home
No losers
No better no worse
Down in the gutters I
I know you can
Rise rise refuse and resist
My child of fury
You're the one I miss
Rise rise refuse and resist
My child of fury
You're the one I miss
In your eyes see stars of faith [stars of faith]
Don't give up [Don't give up]
Accept the pain [Accept the pain]
When your freedom dies [freedom dies]
I break down and cry [break down and cry]
When your freedom dies [freedom dies]
It means the end [means the end]
Of our road [road]
Of our road [road]
When your freedom dies [freedom dies]
I break [I break]

Skhule kanzima (We grew up hard)
Singo mafunga angajiki (We commit ourselves, we don't give up)
Sulinye mbezi (Wipe off your tears)
Rise rise refuse and resist
My child of fury
You're the one I miss
Rise rise refuse and resist
My child of fury
You're the one I miss
Your cry and fire in your eyes
Respect to the ones that live and try
I swear to God that the fuckers forgot
That you die of hunger in your broken homes
In the lands wiped of the map
I can feel the gap in my broken heart beating
Mama it's dark
So dark and cold now
Where's your promise
Where's your pride and love now
Another dawn breaking
Out in the streets where life ain't faking
No sun for this hungry child
Out in the bloody east
The west, north, south
Bare sticks
Dust and bricks
Politicians playing same dirty tricks
And the crowd got mad and my beauty got shot
Down in the gutter
In the mud and blood

Qhawu Qhawuku ujingi The swing is broken
Qhawu Qhawuku ujingi abantwana bedlala The swing has broken while the children are playing
Kuqhuma irhuluwa There's a smell of gunpowder
Umtwana zibekhe kahle Child please take care of yourself
Kuqhuma irhuluwa ilife ngamahla ndenyuka There's a smell of gunpowder, Life is up and down
Kuyabanda Kuyatshisa It's cold, it's hot
Sihlanganisa amathe neNyembezi We mix spit and tears
