"Where you goin' mabhebheza!? lemme put a ring on that *** yo!" Streets are named after me, After my disobedient tongue, my rough edges and ***** skin, They call after me They mimic my mother's voice And lure me into an alley no-one will walk through alone. Sometimes I am that alley. Sometimes I am the rose and the grave. Sometimes I am the war-zone and the home. I guess it depends on who's listening..
