[Burna Boy, Ladysmith Black Mambazo - Glory lyrics]

Indaba yami le
(Indaba yami le, this is my story)
Indaba yami le
(Indaba yami le, this is my story)
Ngiphakamise, this is my story
Ngiphakamise
Hold me, ah (Hold me)
This is my story
Indaba yami le
(Indaba yami le, this is my story)
Indaba yami le
(Indaba yami le, this is my story)
Ngiphakamise (Ngiphakamise)
Ngiphakamise (Ngiphakamise, this is my story)
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear Damini
Happy birthday to you
How old are you now?

(Oh, man)


Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you
Ever seen me, hold me
Ah
Lately, I've been fucked up
Been havin' a hard time
Like back when my dawg died
Felt my heart split apart like apartheid
I could have survived
Thug life full of combine
Hold it down, I was sentenced by the crown
And I never used to smile
Though I never used to frown
Ten toes on the ground, what the hell?
My life came turnin' around
From runnin' wild
In my town to the glory

Hold me, ah (Ngiphakamise)
This is my story, yeah (Indaba yami le)
Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you
Ever seen me, hold me
Ah

I remember when they shipped me from the cans
To Chelmsford HMP and my celly had it bad
So I had to have his back
Niggas started fightin'
And then they cut me on my hand
So I grabbed one from the back and
I flung him off the landing
You know the screws get extra
Ruthless when you're Black
Layin' on my back
Now the block's feelin' mad
Now I'm in a lab tryna do the best I can

Hold me, ah, this is my story, yes
Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you
Ever seen me, hold me
Ah

Said, first things first
I finna let you know that
I been bad since birth
I heard it from the nurse
Lookin' and went searchin' through
Trials that occurred
Then I started workin' twice as hard
Havin' nightmares of the day I fall off
But I stick around like herpes
I ain't lettin' up
With harmonies just like Bone Thugz, ooh

Hold me, ah, this is my story, yeah
Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you
Ever seen me, hold me
Ah
Glory, yeah

This is my story (Glory)
Indaba yami le (Glory)
This is my story (Glory)
Indaba yami le (Glory)
This is my story (Glory)
Indaba yami le (Glory)
This is my story (Okay, alright, on three)
