Evening in Braamfontein

Just another day on the earth;
A sickly little planet in this expanse of the massive!
To and fro, people go, even me but I don’t know…
Everybody’s on a hustle; this is Jozi baby bro!
But man, it’s so shit; only making a 'lil bit — yet
Still we rise at 5, catch the taxi undecided
If it’s what we really want but it’s what we really need
Half the people don’t have bread so phanda is the way we' lead —
But there has to be more!
See, me, I lose my friends
Everyday they’re at work
Hardly see them in the ends!
In the end, said and done; memories of being spun!
And when you' burning out, you' finding out you never won!
Listen son… memories; they should be happy!
Invest In what you like and man, you better make it snappy
Cause tomorrow’s never promised, uh, me I have been there;
16 — I lost my mum — my life; it went up in thin air!
Hit the snare! (Yeah!)
Music? Like it? Yes, I do!
So I took what I had and I built myself a stu —
Had a mic and a midi, learned to mix — it sound so pretty!
So now I’m doing shows man I’ll catch you in your city!
(Yeah)
See — happy comes and goes!
But so does the sadness…
So given this futility we' left up with some badness;
There’s crime in the town and poverty’s not coming down…
So me? I will be happy — copped a smile straight from that frown
Check! — I got a smile straight from that frown, yeah
Music, a capella
Just another fella
Tryna make you happy
Dancing in the rainy weather!
Drink some wine! -
Though I’m sober, I’ll be fine!
Maybe think about tomorrow
'Wonder if the sun will shine, check…
