1 Rand Kop or Tail by Mashaole Mogale Lyrics
[intro]
1 rand , it can separate two people
As it has a different meaning on both sides
(Chorus)x4
I didn’t know ,I didn’t know
That it mattered to you
(Adlib) it Matters to me yeah
(Verse)
Everything that I was given
Took it for granted I get it
Looks like a ticket now take
Probably I can replace it
Nothing to me if it makes sense
1 Rand to me is just useless
In your world I cannot say this
Till I step into a taxi
Middle life got me forgetting
I can immediately lose it
Time that it took to work for it
I earned it
I spend it
Don’t even stop to say thanks
But I am wearing all these brands
I could have put it in your hand
During the traffic as you dance
Hustling just to get you fed
Hustling just to get me fat
Make enough but I want to spend
I ain't thinking bout the silhouette
Living better than my brethren
Living better but I’m selfish
All Ive seen is no change
More pain more strangers
The poor the rich
What a distance
What a rift
It makes me sick
There’s a bridge
Next To Sandton
Alexandra is a part of it that we don’t mention
(Chorus)x4
I didn’t know ,I didn’t know
That it mattered to you
(Adlib) it Matters to me yeah
1 rand , it can separate two people
As it has a different meaning on both sides
(Chorus)x4
I didn’t know ,I didn’t know
That it mattered to you
(Adlib) it Matters to me yeah
(Verse)
Everything that I was given
Took it for granted I get it
Looks like a ticket now take
Probably I can replace it
Nothing to me if it makes sense
1 Rand to me is just useless
In your world I cannot say this
Till I step into a taxi
Middle life got me forgetting
I can immediately lose it
Time that it took to work for it
I earned it
I spend it
Don’t even stop to say thanks
But I am wearing all these brands
I could have put it in your hand
During the traffic as you dance
Hustling just to get you fed
Hustling just to get me fat
Make enough but I want to spend
I ain't thinking bout the silhouette
Living better than my brethren
Living better but I’m selfish
All Ive seen is no change
More pain more strangers
The poor the rich
What a distance
What a rift
It makes me sick
There’s a bridge
Next To Sandton
Alexandra is a part of it that we don’t mention
(Chorus)x4
I didn’t know ,I didn’t know
That it mattered to you
(Adlib) it Matters to me yeah
