Lyrics
[Intro]
(Voices callin from the township)
Mm-mm-mm
Oh wena
Mm-mm-mm
[Verse 1]
Ngicela ungisize
Hands are heavy but I'm still standin tall
Back against the wall
But I can hear the drums when the morning calls
Zulu in my blood and the bass behind me
Gqom drums kickin like the ones who taught me
Found sounds buzzin through the static but they found me
Roads get rocky but the rhythm found me
[Pre-Chorus]
Won't you hold me through the static
Keep me movin through the frantic
Every step I take is magic
Lord I'm askin please
[Chorus]
Ngicela ungisize
When the night gets cold and the days get long
Ngicela ungisize
Keep the fire lit till the break of dawn
Ngicela ungisize
I'm a soldier with a broken song
Just a man who's tryna carry on
[Drop]
Ungisize yebo
(Help me now)
Ungisize yebo
(Help me now)
Ungisize yebo
(Help me now)
Ungisize
[Verse 2]
Jamaica heat and Detroit snow
Different coasts but the hunger grows
Beatbox rhythm from a broken throat
Talking wild while the talkbox flows
From Joburg streets to the 313
Every hood knows what it means to bleed
Atlanta in my veins and my heritage
Rising through the noise I've been handed this
[Pre-Chorus]
Won't you hold me through the static
Keep me movin through the frantic
Every step I take is magic
Lord I'm askin please
[Chorus]
Ngicela ungisize
When the night gets cold and the days get long
Ngicela ungisize
Keep the fire lit till the break of dawn
Ngicela ungisize
I'm a soldier with a broken song
Just a man who's tryna carry on
[Bridge]
(Yebo yebo)
Voices from the soil and the concrete
(Yebo yebo)
Grandma's prayers runnin through my feet
(Yebo yebo)
One request before I go to sleep
Help me find the strength to keep
[Chorus]
Ngicela ungisize
When the night gets cold and the days get long
Ngicela ungisize
Keep the fire lit till the break of dawn
Ngicela ungisize
I'm a soldier with a broken song
Just a man who's tryna carry on
[Outro]
Mm-mm-mm
Ungisize yebo
Oh wena
Ngicela ungisize
