Happy 28

Happy 28
Happy Birthday King

Life hasn't been sunshine and flowers
But we still find a way to celebrate what's ours
We live on borrowed, that's clear as the sky was
So we gotta do the most, while breath is among us

I wear my scars on my sleeves, as a sign of strength
I wear them proud like Lui V's, that's designer strength
They were cut and designed in my skin
And every scar, that I got, represents a win

I don't hide my pain, and I don't hide my glory
People feel I'm a lot, they don't know my story
And it's not my position to narrate the story
I'm sorry but I'm not so sorry

Do you know the joy of breaking out
And do you know the pain of being left out
Are you sure you know, cos I really doubt
Have you tried to be quiet, when you're really proud?

Joy is a feeling that you can't cage in
It itches to be shown, it just eats your skin
It creates an explosion from deep within
It can't be explained, it is what you feel

And the same expression could apply to pain
Cos it triggers an emotion, then you pour like rain
It is something that you feel, that you can't explain
It's the last time, I express this, I won't do it again

People have the nerve to dictate our lives
They even have the nerve bare a dream won't come alive
Some challenges I faced, I was never to survive
I can't wait to see their faces when this dreams has to life

I'm still pushing, though I still don't have that house like Cassper
That car like Cassper
That Rollex, AP, a spinning chain like Cassper
But I still have a dream and I'm inspired by Cassper
Though sometimes I just feel I'm depressed by Cassper
Maybe I should focus on me and forget bout Cassper
Cos I won't see my Blessings if I stress bout Cassper

At the age of 21, I let my car make the noise
I bought the whip ke le 20, how far were you boys
At the age of 22, I was building a house
At 19, told O'lady gore Mama I'm moving out

I was only 23, with a crib in city
24, had a Benz, GTi and a CiTi
At the age of 25, bought my mother a car
At 26, I'm invested and raising the bar

At the of 27, I followed passion again
Started making music, I was dropping again
MALEBO THE EP, we made a killing again
It's my name in the streets they were screaming again

Today I'm 28, I'm making more than the music
Spending every thebe consciously, no more spending like stupid
They hoping that we fall, and we air on I Blew It
I will only be coming down in a plane if I knew it

And if money is a language, I'm speaking it fluent
I'm coming for that Legacy, ain't talking bout fluid
When I started making money, had to spend it properly
The best advice came from Mama she said invest in property

Now I put my girl on a phone
That is more expensive than the car that I own
My baby, out there moving, ka di Fit mo pateng
Now that's how you gift ga o le fit mo pateng

Reminiscing going back to my early days
Before di billboard, or this money chase
Mama told me, conceiving was hard
That's a clear indication I've been a Blessing from start

In Primary School, I became a big deal when it came to sports
I'm laughing as I'm writing, I connect the dots
Ne ke le blind on the field, and athletic tracks
Nou ke blind in my field gave you amazing tracks

Captain of the team, every sport that I played
Head-boy of the school, that's the level I attained
In a nut shell, I was the one that they would select
So on the go, I had it all, okare Shell Select

Language compositions wana guess o ne a di winner
Me
Cos my writing's acrobatic, I impress every reader
I studied in the highest institution in the land
Got A First Class Distinction, can hear you clap your hands

Even though we winning there's a lot that we lost
I wish was sitting in a meeting with my God
So HE tells me what it takes, or how much it's gona cost
To bring Malebo back, le Lethaema, of cos

Has everybody heard all the news from the birdy?
I'll be ufxkn' shxt up, before of 30!
Now this ones for me, kare, Happy To 28
Put your glasses in the air, it's time to elevate!

Modimo Wame Rrara, Ke Kopa Gore O Neele Botlhale Bwa
Go Amogela Dilo Tse Nka Se Kgoneng Go Di Fetola
I Know That I Am Not Always A Good Boy
But I Thank You So Much, For Keeping Me Safe
Happy 28 To Me, May I keep Being A Blessing
And May Those That You Blessed Me With, Have A Long Life
