Gong Tota

Lyrics by: Tebogo scarlet Thekiso

[Verse 1]
If we made it this far mare fela botshelo bosefa
Ba eeta ka pelo bare ba batla go tshela,
Than we came too long just for us to give up.
We risk much, Pelo tse kwa teng di lela.
Man im proud to be African, Black without a difference
Gong tota, ke eme jaaka letlotla.I grew up a silver
Spoon in my mouth, some of y’all grew up with a
Lot of doubt. Wit em ins and outs, never sure what
The next day has got to give; you might just die or live.
O utlwela thateng, bare modimo o tshetsha ba ba sa
Lapeng but u still want to live botshelo
Diphatseng. Getting drained into the system without,
A fighting you got stand up and always
be doing the right thing. O sa mpheng ka
Moroto wa esi gao elee.

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
Ba re lenong lone le jaa ka losika
You can never make it big mme o tletse
Lehuha.Your life is just a parable, re
Tsoga mofatse re ithuta.A man has no
Enemies’ life is just a battle field, back to
The middle age nako tsa mafisa, banna ka
Dijase and basadi ka di khiba
There’s nothing like the new stuff, re
Feletse nageng with out culture on the blue charts
{Yeah} re sa itite ka thupa, tell you to be
Global bone ba re utswa.With our tradition locked,
Away in museums we gave up everything
Submission to be losers, permission
To be put down, man we gotta cook up
Fete de la, musique has a feeling of the passion
In me, that’s my spirit like re-seen tonight!
