Lyrics Vuk Ekseni - Lex LaFoy

Vuk Ekseni (Wake Up in the Morning)
2017

Ngi vuk ekseni (I wake up in the morning)
Ngi phum embedeni (I get out of bed)
Cabanga umdeni (I think of my family)
Thandaz edolweni (I pray on my knees)
Gijim emgwaqweni (I run out on the road)
Jah' lempumelel' (Chasing this success)
Kuyahlangana, Mele (It's coming together, it must)
Ang' fis', ngiyathemba (I don't hope, I trust)
Kad' ngibekezel' (direct: I've been enduring for long)(implied: I BEEN at it)
Manje ngiyazenz' (Now I'm doing)
Ang'fun ukyenz ama-cents (I don't to make cents)
Ngifun ama-millions (I want millions)
NjenuBaba wasendlini (Just like the man of my house)
Wathi ngisendleleni (He says I'm on my way)
Ugwayi kaGogo ngiyabhem'(direct: I smoke the cigarette-of-gran) (implied: I smoke ganja)
Abadal bayaz, shem (The elders know, shame)

Kad ngigcin uNana (I haven't seen my baby for long)
Uhlel ekhaya noMama (She stays at home with my mum)
Abajwayel' abantu bam (My people are not used to that [sorta thing])
Kodwa lesimo iyancaza (But this scenario, leaves me astounded)
Abantu bayang'judga (People judge me)
Kodwa anginandaba (But I don't care about that)
Ngilandel iphupho lam (I'm chasing my dreams)
UMdal' wak'faka (,[the dreams] The Creator put in me)
Angineskhathi sok'xabana (I don't have time to argue)
Uyakhul' umtwana wam' (My child is growing)
Wangbuz imicelo (She asks me for things)
Iyak'-phendul' imali (That money answers)
Ngiyanqaba ukvila (I refuse to be lazy)
Amandla ngiyak'dinga (I need strength)
Amadlozi bayang'luleka (My ancestors guide me)
Ngothando bayangthinta (They touch me/reach out to me through/in love)

Gimme that money
Gimme it now
Gimme that time
Gimme that power
Put me in your boardroom
Watch ideas shower
License my music
So I get paid by the hour

Pay me by the second
Pay me by the minute
Pass me the contract
Let me fill in it
See my name
See my initial
That's official
My hustle- unconditional
Fuck your bills, if they provisional
I stay on mine, 4 seasonal
501 – mad original
