Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
I sit in parks, it breaks my heart
– Ngihlezi emapaki, kuphula inhliziyo yami
‘Cause I see just how far I am from the things that I want
– Ngoba ngibona ukuthi ngikude kangakanani nezinto engizifunayo
Dad brought the picnic, Mom brought the sunscreen
– Ubaba waletha ipikiniki, Umama waletha isivikelo selanga
Two kids are laughing and crying on red swings
– Izingane ezimbili ziyahleka futhi zikhala ngokushaya okubomvu
We look about the same age
– Sibheka ngeminyaka efanayo
But we don’t have same Saturdays
– Kodwa asinayo imigqibelo efanayo
Did I miss it? By now, is it
– Ingabe ngangikukhumbula? Manje, ingabe
A lucid dream? Is it my fault
– Iphupho elicacile? Ingabe yiphutha lami
For chasing things a body clock
– Ngokujaha izinto iwashi lomzimba
Doesn’t wait for? I did the damn tour
– Awulindele? Ngenza uhambo olubi
It’s what I wanted, what I got
– Yilokho engangikufuna, lokho enganginakho
I spun around and then I stopped
– Ngazungeza ngabe sengiyeka
And wonder if I missed the mark
– Futhi ngiyazibuza ukuthi ngiphuthelwe yini uphawu
So I sit in parks, sunglasses dark
– Ngakho ngihlala emapaki, izibuko zelanga zimnyama
And I hit the vape, hallucinate a nursery with Noah’s Ark
– Futhi ngishaye i-vape, ngibona ngeso lengqondo igumbi labantwana Elinomkhumbi Kanowa
They lay on a blanket and goddamit he loves her
– Balala phezu kwengubo futhi uyamthanda
I wonder if she wants my freedom like I wanna be a mother
– Ngiyazibuza ukuthi uyayifuna yini inkululeko yami njengoba ngifuna ukuba umama
But Rolling Stone says I’m on the right road
– Kodwa Irolling Stone ithi ngisendleleni efanele
So I refill my Lexapro, thinkin’
– Ngakho ngigcwalisa Ilexapro yami, ngicabanga
Did I miss it? By now, is it
– Ingabe ngangikukhumbula? Manje, ingabe
A lucid dream? Is it my fault
– Iphupho elicacile? Ingabe yiphutha lami
For chasing things a body clock
– Ngokujaha izinto iwashi lomzimba
Doesn’t wait for? I did the damn tour
– Awulindele? Ngenza uhambo olubi
It’s what I wanted, what I got
– Yilokho engangikufuna, lokho enganginakho
I spun around and then I stopped
– Ngazungeza ngabe sengiyeka
And wonder if I missed the mark
– Futhi ngiyazibuza ukuthi ngiphuthelwe yini uphawu
Mm-mm, mm-mm
– Mm-mm, mm-mm
So I sit in parks, checkin’ bench marks
– Ngakho ngihlala emapaki, ngibheka izimpawu zebhentshi
Tarryn’s due in June, the album’s due in March
– I-albhamu katarryn izokhishwa ngojuni, I-Albhamu Izokhishwa Ngomashi
