Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear damini
Happy birthday to you
How old are you now?
(Oh, man)
Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you ever seen me, hold me, ah
Lately, I've been fucked up, been havin' a hard time
Like back when my dawg died
Felt my heart split apart like apartheid
I could have survived, thug life full of combine
Hold it down, I was sentеnced by the crown
And I nevеr used to smile, though I never used to frown
Ten toes on the ground, what the hell?
My life came turnin' around from runnin' wild in my town to the glory
Hold me, ah (ngiphakamise)
This is my story, yeah (indaba yami le)
Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you ever seen me, hold me, ah
I remember when they shipped me from the cans
To chelmsford hmp and my celly had it bad
So I had to have his back, niggas started fightin'
And then they cut me on my hand
So I grabbed one from the back and I flung him off the landing
You know the screws get extra ruthless when you're black
Layin' on my back, now the block's feelin' mad
Now I'm in a lab tryna do the best I can
