Young Mandela

For the youth of South Africa
It is encouraging to know
That through out all the pressing times
And solution seeking moment of the day
You still find the courage to return to the end

Young Mandela
Young Mandela, young Mandela
Young Mandela, young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
Dealing with an old vendetta
We gon need a bigger antenna
I might need spirit like Kwesta
They might look at us like Mecca
Young Mandela

You gotta give me the crown
You gotta give me the sound
Making moves for the people
Man you gotta give me the crowd
I gotta give inspiration
You gotta give it around
I'm going pound for a pound
Cause I date to bust it down
I got the power to move you
I got the power to lose you, I never play
I gotta give you a voice
And I gotta give you a choice
For a better day
Thandazel' unkulunkulu yey
Fun' uk'khanya nje ngezulu yey
We can never call a truice
I will never ever lose
I feel like a young Mandela
Supa Mega ey I'm waving the flag like it's checkered
Never measure ey, I be spitting diamonds under pressure
Check the record ey
My verses be barking, German Shepherd
Check the texture, truth is I'm a monster
Young Mandela I be bobbing like a boxer
Young Mandela I be fighting just to prosper
Getting money, you can see the posture (Young Mandela)

I feel like a young Mandela
Dealing with an old vendetta
We gon need a bigger antenna
I might need spirit like Kwesta
They might look at us like Mecca
Cause this is a brand new era
You selling the wrong aesthetic
I feel like you just don't get it
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela
Young Mandela
Treat me like a young Mandela
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela

Yeah this is a hard pandemic
Everybody's so prosthetic
They're just showing up for the credit
I'm throwing you a bone, go get it
Spit straight venom
Somebody call the paramedics
This shit is a drug, so septic
But we gon run it out, athletics
Hit another city with my team
I was following my dreams
Left my youngin in the East
Tell him that his daddy is a beats
Making sure that he can eat
Whether living or deceased
Why you overdosing on the tweets
But you can't say a word on the streets
We're out here tryna hustle for the land
But you too busy worried 'bout the gram (Young Mandela)

I feel like a young Mandela
Dealing with an old vendetta
We gon need a bigger antenna
I might need spirit like Kwesta
They might look at us like Mecca
'Cause this is a brand new era
You selling the wrong aesthetic
I feel like you just don't get it (Young Mandela)
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela (Young Mandela)
Young Mandela
Treat me like a young Mandela (Young Mandela)
Young Mandela
I feel like a young Mandela (Young Mandela)
(Young Mandela)
Treat me like a young Mandela
