Eish, life in the township...
We need a change, bafwethu.
Asambe.
I wake up in the morning, look at the streets
Young boys chasing dreams on these dusty beats
Mama's praying for a better day to come
We tired of the struggle under the burning sun
They say we won't make it, but we gotta try
Keep your head up, look at the sky
Aweh, we moving forward now
Izinto zizoshintsha, things are gonna change
We dancing through the fire, stepping out the cage
Yebo, we rise together, hand in hand
Bringing hope to the promised land
Izinto zizoshintsha, yes it's gonna change
No more tears in the ghetto, we finding our way
With the log drum rolling, we seize the day
From Soweto to the world, they hear our voice
To live a better life, that is our choice
We hustle hard, sharp sharp, no delay
Making our own path, clearing the way
Izinto zizoshintsha, things are gonna change
We dancing through the fire, stepping out the cage
Yebo, we rise together, hand in hand
Bringing hope to the promised land
Izinto zizoshintsha, yes it's gonna change
Sho, the winds of change are here.
Izinto zizoshintsha.
Asambe.
