Zola 7 - Uzubuye

32Copied!

{Intro}
Cleva ungajola nabocherrie abayi hundred mawuthanda
Mara uthole kuthi akulungi nex
Ngoba kukhona i cherry eyi one in your past
That you still have unfinished business with
Lalela tsotsi

{Chorus}
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
You told me that you're leaving uzobuya

{Verse 1}
The Motlatle lady bese ujola notsotsi
Somehow you always blame me for losing baby eyami
And so I got angry, made friends no gavini
The fights got dirty
Making love felt empty
Sometimes ngikuzw' ukhala ebusuku ulele ezingubeni
And when I try to touch indololwane ises'fubeni
And so I got angry ma ngakhumbul' ekasi
I was thinking to myself ukuthi ubaby uding' ispace
Shit I didn't knowu kungazi kufana nokungaboni
Ngikucabanga everyday ma ilanga lingashoni
Walk away from a girl like you cleva uwunamahloni
Full of pride full of ego, ma ngashintsha ne phone
But I wrote ex girlfriend ngoba vele ngingasakuboni
Your friends bengitshela ukuthi u mam' uhleli akasajoli
She's crying every day Zola icala aliboli
Sigebengu swallow pride utjel'udali kutsi you're sorry

{Chorus}
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
You told me that you're leaving uzobuya

{Verse 2}
People look at me and think Zola is the man
How many people know I'm alone again
These chains these cars this fame what then
I know sometimes you wish I didn't have this life
Vele besingananex but bengipush'ilife
Bengihlala ngihappy even though beku rough
Amagwinya ne atchar baby that was enough
It's been too long damn, you should have been my wife
Bong'vusa ekuseni emanzi a warm endishini
Look after me uz'ung'gqokise amasokisi
Uthi baby hurry up uzoba late emsebenzini
Wlk me all the way ngize ngiyofika emataxini
Angikaze ngihambe endlini gingawutholanga u kiss
Sometimes ngiphuma ngiyazi ukuthi angishiyanga nex
Ngobone ismile esihlangane nezinyembezi
Awuzange wa complaina but ngikwazi ngaphakathi

{Chorus}
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
Ngizokulinda uzubuye
You told me that you're leaving uzobuya

{Outro}
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Blow your mind
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Drive you wild
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Make you cry
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Make you sigh
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Make you frown
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Break your heart
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Make you smile
Don't you think it's funny how love can
Make you dive and slice yea yea

Biography

edit bio

Born Bonginkosi Dlamani on the 24 April 1977 in Zola, Soweto. The young Bonginkosi had a rough upbringing living with his single mother in a crime ridden and violent ghetto; he ended up serving time in prison as a juvenile for car theft before turning 18 years old.

He was not well known in the music circles in the late 90’s but rather he was famously known for his role as “Papa Action” on the popular Drama series, Yizo Yizo.

He was also featured in the first South African Oscar winning film Tsotsi and also played in another film, Drum directed by Zola Maseko starring Taye Diggs, Jason Flemyng etc.

Zola got introduced to the South African music scene through “Ghetto Fabulous” a song which was released as part of the soundtrack for Yizo Yizo 2.

On the 1st May 2000, he released his debut album, Umdlwembe produced by Kaybee. He released the album under the alias, Zola, which is the name of the ghetto he grew up in. The album went on to attain platinum status and win multiple awards. Zola has released up to eight albums since then.

Originally, Zola was not a fan of Kwaito music, because it “had no message.” He took it upon himself to change this, viewing himself as a role model. He added raps to his chants and choruses, justifying the improvement:

I want to inspire a guy from the ghetto so he can stop hanging around in the corner begging and try to get some life.

This led to Kwaito now having a similar structure to that of Hip Hop a lot, to an extend that some critics have categorized his music as Hip Hop.

Zola has dedicated his life to philanthropy in various ways benefiting the needy and disadvantaged around South Africa and the African continent.
