3 Quarter Pace

Came from nothing

You know nothing about that

Pressed a few buttons

Cracked the code

Now I′m out here

Dropped outta school

Could'a been an accountant

Or stock broker

Picture me in the Gautrain

Commuting nine to five

I doubt that I′d survive

Had to stay true to my bravado

Set the mode and lock the vibe

Now I'm the main event on your pay-per-view

Undeniable

Had them all waiting on the news about the title

Thank the king

I don't make the rules nor the titles

I just wear it

You see how I outmaneuvered all my rivals

My arrival has a lot to do with the current state of the game

Same way the state of the game might have alot to do with my arrival

I′m Cash Time

Yithi aboMachushu balendawo

Dropping jewels I might go viral

I swear this typa s**t should drop on vinyl

I pray to God I′ll live to see tomorrow

I know my time on Earth is borrowed

Taking shots I'm drinking out the bottle

Came up

Yeah ... yeah

Say What

Yeah ... yeah

Never knew I′d get this close

Now I'm way too focused

Can′t deny me now Set up shop

Let em know we back in business

In vernac or English

This is everything your favourite rapper isn't

This is trespassing

This is never had permission

This is that grass

This the reason you been itchin

This is fresh gas

Bet you smell the fuel emissions

Started as a test drive

Till I went and blew the engine

These are religious thoughts dressed in euphemism

If I had to tell it like it is

Chances are you′d miss it

Mama told me I'm a star since a young age

I grew up somewhere on a farm ekhaleni

Ngical' isghela nginafour

But I was far from one of them

Which probably explains why the boy only lasted one day

Bathi lo ungcono abuyel′ ecreche

And this is, back when I didn′t know what to do with a chess

But God had other plans which is why

Few years later when I met K.O

He went and gave me another chance

I know

In matric I was top of my class

Someone told me in order to grow you need to let go of the past

I've seen em all tryna follow my path

But they couldn′t copy my style

Let alone borrow my craft

I learnt the hard way

Ngisazam' ukba ukleva

I was reaching for the stars

They was way outta my grasp

I was chasing my dreams

Thinking slow down or I′ll crash

Bathi kimi lomhlaba uyahlaba

And lendlela inameva

Lendlela inameva

Bathi kimi lomhlaba uyahlaba

And lendlela inameva

Kodwa sophumelela

Sophumelela

Mpintsh'yam sophumelela

Came up

Yeah ... yeah

Say What

Yeah ... yeah
