Contra (feat. Kid X)

Konje irap le?

Okay

Grootman

Ya Sho fede Huzet?

iSgubhu sasho vele angikhuzeki /

Bula sekele, I’m ready,

Buka the awe from the cadence /

Broer is from all generations,

True as my fall from your graces

All of the songs that they’re making?

Awkward, I already made em

Talking all of your favourites,

ya’ll got em all “ready-made”

Not saying all they shit is cheesy,

Just sayin’ I’m already greater(grater)

I know their way in was easy cos I had already made it

But before they got their way in (Dwayne), I was already Baby

Boy, I’m highly favoured,

How I need a favour?

I’m outchea rooting for you ngoba ngiwumzali, ngiyak’favour

Bundles of joy

I humble you boys,

ang’zwani nenyongo,

la ninganya nonke,

ang’hlebi, you heard itverbatim

But I hope izinto zizonilungela

Cos the sun don’t always shine,

I hope you’re into all that cappin’

Hope you’re into what you rapping,

And awuringi udoti k’phela,

Me? My future been bright since the bank had a fortune teller

You could tell a fortune was in the cards

Ambitious fella

I literally gave Kgosi a start

That’s word to JR,

Ya izinja the dawgs

Ugade ungang’kitazi inyawo when you reach for stars, wassup?

Ain’t nothing new here, ngisawuye, impact is nuclear

Like fuck a genre, it’s cultures that I’ve influenced

Nothing to prove, just came through to kick like Liu Kang

I do what you can’t but love watching you do what you can

And watching you act like azange ung’bukele

Back when my bread was being(bing) buttered(butta) by aboshukela

Before sibashubhela, bengivuthela,

I spread my wings and got my W ngathi yilogo ye Wu-Tang

Ekse, eziso ziscarce,

So, please, don’t be dumb

Been sharpening sh*t since it all be-gun

But since sonke sila, let’s make it All v One

I’ll smoke every rapper breathing, these are Pro Kid lungs /

Ungaphel’ Umoya Son,

It takes forever and a day

Just to be here long enough to see forever get away

Cos they just want a hook,

a good beat

and then yay (Ye)

Your legacy isn’t some rhymes that you never “Heard Em say”

I’m sayin’

What you can’t deny

I fu.. Bet(alphabet) they’ll never put jy(J) next to I

Yini awuzi ketchi, then maybe press rewind

…’fore **** shoot for that Roley, now you’re pressed for

time

Youlate,

Gone but never forgotten

Through the eye of a needle

I'm hand picking the cotton eng'zow gqoka ngalo suku

they transcend the flesh,

They might be blowing smoke but what eye witness is tales of the ego's death

Into ongakaze empilweni yakho uyibone ngamehlo is finally unraveling

Le Intwan ephum egravellin

I graduated from those long walks kuley ndlela eynameva

That’s riddled with snakes, ngisay nyandula, ng'zula iCullinan

Shooting the breeze,

Sisa landela amafu

A diamond in the ruff

El polishwe yistraat

is what I would become

Ngok hamba kwe minyaka

Ng'tabalaz nga buya ne tlama

Thank the Lord still umphefumulo usahlangene nenyama, net so

On my umpteenth wind,

le breathwork level engkiyo, aykakakabi ne

number

This is that carefully orchestrated luck, aksiy yi chaisa

Angek uthi ungena etaxini bese uzo mangazwa yi kwapha,

aw'yek uk'phapha Uth'uk'zehlisa,

Le yi target practice

Ma uyi nyoni es'hlahleni, ngi sazo kukha nje nge penchis

udlala ama games

Ezam az'nceni uk'chaisa le stina nge double header

S'faka uSuper Mario ku Tetris

A true 1 of 1, I'm no apprentice

Too flagrant

Nom ng'gqok isuit, incaza ng'sangay tepisa

Mabay susa induku bazoy sutha pay respect

Ngi zakhel is'hlalo sob'khosi, bese inyawo eliy1 ngiyal cegisa

something to keep me routed in my inner truth

Nalokuth', ungal linge uy'fise impilo yomunye umuntu

Awumazi ukuth udabuka kwaph amazwe, weqe miphi imifula

Iynkinga zomhlaba, mawu ne ntliziyo encane zizok'zwis ubhlungu

Kdala sphika ne straati, sa gcina s'phunyuka

Kumanzi pants, iynyembezi, igazi konke nomjuluko

K’yenzeka umunt nidlala, nimtinte kant nizomtunuka

I could tell stories ngey ntangazam that’s not to be continued

So, every single line I jot is like a tribute

A plea to your higher self, the peace of God that lives within you

Mfethu, ungabhem’ uzu kholwe, uncancatheke

But, this level of rizz, you ain't shopping it from temu

This level of (whistle) s'what I'm not supposed to tell you

But you so quick to let the dog whistle offend you

You miss most of the magic, this that and the fifth

Tell me,

What's a rite of passage with misquotings of s
