I live at Soweto,
but all what i see,
amusee me and some times i laugh.
Dogs can bark,
and birds can cry all the night,
when all the thieves,
moving up and down ,
like cats and dogs.
Soweto my love,
i wonder about you,
and i cry for you for all what you're!

Born and raised in the streets of Soweto
Ndofaya, kasi lama kasi is what i call it
Grew up in search for gold
all i found was coal
A shack for a house but it was home
The streets made you wise
the hustle put food on the table
Growth was far from reach
wisdom was key
knowledge guaranteed a future
If only i learned to combine the two
i would have found gold

I do not know?
Storm rages brimestones from ages to ages.
The earth quakes from its foundation,flakes of hell erupts from the depths beneath.
Seed of discord blossom
In the very cord of the society as nightfalls in soweto forestalls the dawning of a new era.
Blaming mankind's curiosity or nature's complexity.
This is my first attempt on couplet,critics are welcome to air their minds.

Here lies Zenani among the first rains.
May her spring, thoughts and hands enrich our brains.
