Teargas, Tamarsha - Life lyrics

How did things go wrong? (Hhe… ihelele mama)
How did things go wrong? (Hhe… ihelele mama)
Let’s appreciate life

From i-life yamakota nama-street wise two
Manje ekasi sengiy’bhoza and I’m
Street wise too
K’dala ngiphush’ ub'lova since high school
Mara bengingazi nami k’khon'
Abazongithola for the things I do
Yessus izinja zifikile zangithola ng'gidlile
Nalenyuku bengithi ngiy’fihlile
Nayo ziycinzile
I’m breathless ngisho nedladla
Lami bal'shisile
Joe k’qhum' intshiza ngizilwe
I-vrou bay’cishile
Ngizokwenzenjani mari abobani labobari
Bangival’ amehlo bangilahlela
Ebhuthini yalekari
Bavaya nami ngizw' omunye ebiz’ igama lami
Ethi u-cross-a uMavusana bow’cabangani sani
Bavele bapak’ itransi bavul’ iminyango then
I heard a few footsteps
There’s no looking back, this is it
And angiphuphi niks
Ngagcina bethi ithi sqede
Ngalenja vul’ibhuthi eintlek eish

How did things go wrong? (Hhe… ihelele mama)
How did things go wrong? (Hhe… ihelele mama)
Let’s appreciate life

Wakhala kangaka Sizakele k’shone bani
Sula izinyembezi mtakwethu uphole nami
I know I don’t give you
Time sokuthi uxoxe nami
Ngit'shele iynhlungu zakho
Mtakwethu kwenzenjani?
Wangibhek’ emehlweni wangibuza ngimthanda
Okwempela na?
Zonke infihlo zakhe mina angang'tshela na?
Ngam’bheka emehlweni baby ungakhathazeki
Ngihlala nginawe ebumnyameni nasek’khanyeni
Wathi baby ngicela ungangikwateli
Ukuba nendoda efana nawe akung'faneli
Yini Sizakele? Wathi ngiyaxolisa
Lendaba kwamele ngik’tshele
UPhila ak’singane yakho yingane kaShenge
Uthini? Ungazongihlanyisa!
After all these years uPhila ngimkhulisa?
After all these years uPhila ngimfundisa?

How did things go wrong? (He… helele mama)
How did things go wrong
Let’s appreciate life

Until we die, tse bohloko ha di fele
I wonder why, keledi di sa fele
Coz we work hard, ha re bone phomolo
And when we work smart, ha re bone moputso
I went to school hoping when I get back
Everything was cool but damn
It wasn’t like that
Nkgono le Ntatemoholo just laid there
Neba sena letho just means for
Them to take care
Difelekwane tsona tsa fihla tsa thuntsa fela
Di ipatlela thepa so that di
Kgone ho tsuba fela
How brainless how shameless?
Stupid I was there hoping
They all die nameless
That’s what I thought as I sat
There with tears running down
Ha ne kena le gun I’ll
Probably hunt them down
Ke ba rute batho like they never did biology
Anatomy ke tla ba nyolla like astrology

How did things go wrong? (He… helele mama)
How did things go wrong
Let’s appreciate life
