Preacher - Kwesta, NOTA

I am a poor lover, with sorrow

I’m left in this world all alone

I have no hopes, for tomorrow

Oh, I wonder if

Preacher, can you reach us?

We’ve been waitin', for the one

Tryna reach ya, tryna reach ya

Tryna reach ya, tryna reach ya

You’re the one that knows I’ve been in the dark

(I am a poor lover)

Bheka

Fuck me man, I’d rather let my neck glow

Fuck dreams, I’m a product of the ghetto

What dreams?

Boy, my brother got a Benzo, a crib and cashflow

And he ain’t made no bank loan

So much cash you can swim in it, backstroke

So much passion and being in threshold

So puff pass, yeah, azishe kodwa let’s go

Nobody’s tryna hang with these bibs on death row

So what the fuck you think we tryna do?

Let me tell you, same shit that our brothers do

Same whip yet the strategy invades hell

Same shit, different strategy to escape jail

But first I gotta show my worth to em

By doing that, show the rest that I’m worse tham em

By worse than them I mean I can snatch a purse from a person who is friends

with the mother that gave birth to em

That’s a mother that gave birth to me

Who am I hurting?

Not even her, I’m hurting me

Chasing change is the worst of us

I hope it changes before you bury us

I’m lost in this world all alone

Bheka

Fuck love, I ain’t seen that in a long time

Fuck trust, I ain’t giving that to no dime

I trust love to dig deeper than the gold mine

Find a couple jewels, clip your wings so you don’t fly

Ghetto girls give it up like not try

Just so they can get inside that dope ride

That’s a glimpse of life papa won’t buy

Only one code that we live by: Don’t die

Somebody tell a black man «If you ain’t doing too much, you ain’t doing enough

You just worth like two hundred bucks»

Somebody tell a white man that you ain’t losing to us

How the fuck you losing when employment is a rumour to us?

I say I’m free kodwa ang’kwazi ukwenza uk’thanda kwam

I say I’m free kodwa ngiyak’jaja maw’fana nam

I say I’m free kodwa ijele ligwele iy’tanga zam

I say I’m free kodwa I dark-i o-grand ngimbiz' ingamla yam

Nah, that’s embarassing

But I guess it’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon

Chasing change is the worst of us

I hope it changes 'fore they bury us

Preacher, can you reach us?

We’ve been waitin', for the one

Tryna reach ya, tryna reach ya

Tryna reach ya, tryna reach ya

You’re the one that knows I’ve been in the dark

(I am a poor lover)

Ayy, bheka

Listen here dawg, let me put it to you

They gon' make you make them bullets just to put em through you

They gon' make you make them vests just to test em on you

Bang bang, man down, now there’s less above you

You kill for a cheque, yeah, damn right

Dudes kill you if they cheques ain’t right

A few sins but death is the damn price

Who wins, the Big Mac or the franchise?

Uh

Tshela mina, who’s winning?

Ngithi tshela mina, who’s the villian?

You following orders kodwa who you killin'?

Cause while you try being civil, he’s being serial

Million dollar dreams, wena ulala kuphi?

Million dollar schemes, wena udlala kuphi?

They do black on black crime to buy a lot of time

We do black on black crime and get a lot of time

They do black on white crime for a ballot paper

You do black on white crime, who the fuck gon' bail ya?

Chasing change is the worst of us

If that don’t change they gon' bury us

Preacher, can you reach us?

We’ve been waitin', for the one

Tryna reach ya, tryna reach ya

Tryna reach ya, tryna reach ya

You’re the one that knows I’ve been in the dark

(I am a poor lover)
