Gangs and violence

(Verse 1) In the city where the sun beats down hard, Life's a hustle, every move's on guard. I'm the king of these streets, but it ain't no throne, Just a crown of thorns in a war zone. Brothers by my side, we're a family strong, But the weight of the world, man, it's heavy and long. From the Cape Flats to the dusty plains, South African dreams washed away by the rains. (Chorus) Gangs and violence, it's the same old tale, In this land of beauty, where hopes often fail. Struggling to survive, in a system so wrong, Yet we dance to the beat of this afrobeats song. (Verse 2) Born in the struggle, raised in the fire, Every day's a battle, every step's a wire. Government promises, they just fade away, Leaving us with nothing but bills to pay. Apartheid's shadow still darkens our land, As we fight for justice with a desperate hand. But in the heart of the chaos, we find our voice, Singing songs of freedom, making our choice. (Chorus) Gangs and violence, it's the same old tale, In this land of beauty, where hopes often fail. Struggling to survive, in a system so wrong, Yet we dance to the beat of this afrobeats song. (Bridge) But through the pain and the tears, we stand tall, Proud South Africans, answering the call. For a brighter tomorrow, we fight on, In the rhythm of hope, till the break of dawn. (Chorus) Gangs and violence, it's the same old tale, In this land of beauty, where hopes often fail. But with unity and strength, we'll right the wrong, And keep dancing to the beat of this afrobeats song.
