1206
Man growing up in post-apartheid South Africa was no joke
We went from combating racism to combating gangsterism
And as a young impressionable man I had to do what I had to do
To get by, now I was never about the street life
I'll put that on the record, but shit I had to what I had to do, some things I regret
Well shit you would have done it too
1 2 0 6 shit, that's gang gang gang shit
Snatch your girl like Boko Boko
In the island of Morocoroco
Real thugs in my section, I just did it for protection
Never one for the weapons, rather 1 on 1 like 11
All started when I got robbed, felt I needed back up
I was never bout the thug game
Didn't wanna have to tuck chains
Even then I had ambitions, OGs saw the vision
Back then I wouldn't listen, so they kept me at a distance
Heavily affiliated still, already popping without a deal
Guilty by association taking a dub on appeal
Look how I master the sentence
Welkom life so tense
Either gang bang, know a gang gang or it's robbing your innocence
1 2 0 6 shit 1 2 0 6 shit
Young Welkom kid king on 1 2 0 6 shit
1 2 0 6 shit 1 2 0 6 shit
Young Welkom kid king on 1 2 0 6 shit
Back then was crazy, gang life just ain't me
So Thank God Thank God, I found R-A-P
I don't do it for the phantom, I just do it for the fans dem
And I do it for Welkom, Welkom, Welkom
Back in the day, mama would pray, everyday
Hoping that she, never would have to go shop for a bouquet
I got it made, I got it made
Some of my homies still caught in the struggle I do it for dey
I got it made, I got it made
Shout Hameen, Da Livo, Madenna and Kaymo da man
La Familia -a, La Familia switch up, switch up
I never fold under pressure
Getting more OWS NOW
Had to trade all the gang signs
All I sign is the cheques now
All I'm riding is the jets now
Gucci Sweats be the texture
Me and success are synonymous
Never forget that I started with
1 2 0 6 shit 1 2 0 6 shit
Young Welkom kid king on 1 2 0 6 shit
1 2 0 6 shit 1 2 0 6 shit
Young Welkom kid king on 1 2 0 6 shit
