Get into the taxi in the back seat as usual
Sitting with this sisi who was sitting by the window too
I was in the middle on the right sitting right next to her
The space was kinda small so my knees were half way through the chair in front of me
Twenty rand for the fair
Pass it forward ngithi four they're checking if iphelele
The lady sitting next to me just isn't doing so well
So I look over to her and she tells me life just isnt fair
I lend an ear
Tells me two of my friends just died the last weekend
They was driving to springs and they got into an accident
She was angry at first because she knew they was always reckless
But she sooner was in pain because I really really miss them
Imagine they had told me to come with them and I almost did
Imagine if that would have been me
Who was I gonn leave my baby with she's only a kid
I couldnt leave my girl behind just for a vibe and that is it
Stupid prick i always told to stop driving like a prick
But he would never listen he enjoyed the thrill of it
I was always thrilled to see them when they paid a visit
Now I'm paying visit to where both they're body's rest
Funny story me and one of them actually had a thing
For a minute I think it started when we was kids
Back in high school we was on and off I know that shit was childish
But I would give anything just to do it all again
I really loved him
I put no one else above him
Funny now he's forever above me
Till the day we meet again then I'll be needing nothing
Loved this brother more than my baby daddy
I know that he couldn't stand him and
They was always going at it
Swear that when I broke him the news that this nigguh almost laughed
OMG you lost your friend
Probably hugged me for a second
Then went back to normal shit
I wanted to tell her that everything would be ok
I wanted to tell her that soon she's gonna find a way
I wanna to tell her her boys were in a better place
I wanna tell her the Lord is gonna give her brighter days
I didn't know how to say it
As soon as I formulated
She picked her head up and she told the driver sho't left
Last taxi, only space that's left is in the back
No surprises there I make my way, I was from rehearsal so I was maxed
Sitting by the left window of the cab
This n**** opened a can
Of beer that spilled on his lap
Crap, ketlo sula kang
Hade mfana did I pour on you
Looked over and said nah
He told me don't be alarmed
Nnah ke rata hub'shapa
Itaba ke nali mathata
Now me and him just got to talking
He said
Bra yaka akina zaka keya spana ke nale ngwana
Di mamzo ko'ntlung warasa tshanste kelo Reka ldlala
Kau fela Di ntwana tsaka Diya spana, kgola nyuku eh baya
Tyma ubaisitse sgella nahh Kim khulu so Ka sala
No aka minda
As long as my boys ba thriva
Dili two diya driva
Mara Nnah dololo licence
That's why ung thola taxing
Kind dutse ko back seat
Kea Phanda huri le mama a bone khuri ke ncengile
Phila sos nex
Working for the white men and
Waiting for a pay cheque
Working three hundred and fifty something days only getting paid twelve days of a year
While my work is makeing someone else a millionaire
It isn't fair
Yeah I know
Think the poles are cold then you should try jozi
Hurting wishing I could help the homie
But we was literally on the same seat home
I wonder why our situations never see hope
The brother was in trouble he was bout to call it quits
On the brink of it, i wish we could talk for hours about it
But my stop was coming up so i had to say sorry
I picked my head up and I told the driver sho't left
Everybody got a story in a cab
Fourteen seats and everybody got a past
