Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
Tourists stumble down Broadway
– Izivakashi zikhubeka Ebroadway
Cumberland keeps claiming bodies
– Ucumberland uyaqhubeka efuna izidumbu
All our best memories
– Zonke izinkumbulo zethu best
Were bought and then turned into apartments
– Zathengwa zase ziguqulwa zaba amafulethi
The club with all the hardcore shows
– Iqembu elinayo yonke imibukiso enzima
Now just a greyscale Domino’s
– Manje nje I-domino ‘ s enesikali esimpunga
The churches overflow each Sunday, greedy Sunday morning
– Amasonto agcwala njalo ngesonto, ngesonto ekuseni elihahayo
Giftshop in the lobby
– Isitolo sezipho esisegumbini lokwamukela izivakashi
Act like God ain’t watching
– Yenza Sengathi Unkulunkulu akabukeli
Kill the soul, turn a profit
– Bulala umphefumulo, uthole inzuzo
What lives on? Southern Gotham
– Yini ephilayo? Eningizimu Yegotham
I’m the one who still loves your ghost
– Nginguye osamthanda umoya wakho
I reanimate your bones
– Ngivuselela amathambo akho
With my belief
– Ngokukholelwa kwami
I’m the one who still loves your ghost
– Nginguye osamthanda umoya wakho
I reanimate your bones
– Ngivuselela amathambo akho
‘Cause I’m a true believer
– Ngoba ngingumkholwa weqiniso
They put up chain-link fences underneath the biggest bridges
– Babeka uthango olunezixhumanisi ngaphansi kwamabhuloho amakhulu kunawo wonke
They pose in Christmas cards with guns as big as all their children
– Babeka amakhadi Kakhisimusi ngezibhamu ezinkulu njengazo zonke izingane zabo
They say that Jesus is the way but then they gave him a white face
– Bathi Ujesu uyindlela kodwa bamnika ubuso obumhlophe
So they don’t have to pray to someone they deem lesser than them
– Ngakho akudingeki bathandaze kothile abacabanga ukuthi mncane kunabo
The South will not rise again
– Iningizimu ngeke iphinde ivuke
‘Til it’s paid for every sin
– ‘Kuze kube yilapho sekukhokhelwe zonke izono
Strange fruit, hard bargain
– Izithelo eziyinqaba, ukuhweba okunzima
Till the roots, Southern Gotham
– Kuze kube sezimpande, Eningizimu Yegotham
I’m the one who still loves your ghost
– Nginguye osamthanda umoya wakho
I reanimate your bones
– Ngivuselela amathambo akho
With my belief
– Ngokukholelwa kwami
I’m the one who still loves your ghost
– Nginguye osamthanda umoya wakho
I reanimate your bones
– Ngivuselela amathambo akho
‘Cause I’m a true believer
– Ngoba ngingumkholwa weqiniso
I’m the one who still loves your ghost
– Nginguye osamthanda umoya wakho
I reanimate your bones
– Ngivuselela amathambo akho
With my belief
– Ngokukholelwa kwami
I’m the one who still loves your ghost (Ah-ah)
– Nginguye osathanda umoya wakho (Ah-ah)
I reanimate your bones
– Ngivuselela amathambo akho
‘Cause I’m a true believer (Ah-ah-ah)
– Ngoba ngiyikholwa leqiniso (Ah-ah-ah)
