Ma' Soul Food

Soul food/
Give me ma' soul food-/
For food /
Give me the food-/
For my soul/
Give me ma' hip-hop,/
Ma' kwaito, ma' afro-pop/
Jazz moody melody/
Oh! Give me/
Ma' mbhaqanga/
I just wanna be like Shwi Nomtekhala/
Men with an African colour/
Going like "ngafa-wangisiza baba"/
Oh! Give me ma' soul for food/
Ma' soul food/
My food for soul/

Soul Food/
Give me my soul food/
And just give it to me for goodness/
As it will mean my happy mood/
I am crying for my sister Bhethina/
My Dj Big T/
My " Sidla-busha-bethu"/
Just give it to me/
And I will leave you in peace/
Not in pieces/
Don't you dare think of "di phisisi"/
You buy on the streets/
Just think about/
My soul food/
My food for soul/

Soul food/
Give me food/
That will fit my soul/
Not food to feed my feet/
Give me my supersonic/
My soul candy/
My Dj Fresh/
B'cos I wanna get down/
And move my body/
Oh! " Hai sana u rongo"/
Because ke majaivane/
I can do i ngwazi/
Durban kwasa/
And I can belela you/
Through the rhythm of my music/
Especially ma'uphethwe yi nyongo/
Or else I will dance Masingita/
Ndzi ta ku ba ndzi ku dlaya mina/
Umang'thanda nginga phinda/
Becos ingom'emnandi i ya phind'wa/
That's what everybody says/

Soul food/
I will not rest/
Until you give me/
My Dj S'bu/
My summer rain/
That leads me/
To remember when it rained/
Well, there was a reason/
Cuz everything happens for a reason/
Even in C'max prison/
Think of USGONONDO/
Hey! My Bhugaluv/
Eesh! U Zola/
How can I forget/
My main man from Mambhiza/
I am talking about Mzekesman/
Oh! I mentioned him as DJ S'bu/
Please, don't kill me/
I am just bloozing here/
With R&B music/
So I can get soul food/
To feed my ears/
My soul food/
My food for soul/
Soul food/
Give me ma' soul food-/
For food/
Give me the food-/
For my soul/
Give me ma' Belafonte,/
Ma' Oliver Mtukuzi,/
Ma' Dorophy Masuka,/
Give me my Merriam Makeba/
My Aluta continua/
Cuz I need to continue/
