"I'm singing" by Zola Qwabaza
2011-11-09 They can see that we're singingThey can see that we're dancing
They’re looking at us like
we're not right in the head
Let's invite them to join us
Before they try to call the cops
Before they try to call the cops
We don't want them to call the cops

"Move" by Johann Joubert
2011-11-09 If we fail to hear the music,If we fail to hear the song,
If we fail to let it stir us into motion,
Then the daylight will not wake us,
Then our tears will soon run dry,
And gone will be the laughter from our eye.
"On the radio" by Johann Joubert
2011-11-09 There was a song on the radio,It made me think of you,
It wouldn’t let me go, so I had to know …
"Change" by Johann Joubert
2011-11-09 If we wait for the world to change,We will wait until the wind wails through the hollows of our eyes,
As we fixate on the sunset,
Wishing on a whisper of a hopeless dream,
Wishing is a slow and painful death,
Wishing is allegiance to fear,
Wishing is the courage that a man should have,
Diluted to the point of insignificance,
The only step that matters is the first,

2011-11-09 I woke up this morning, and rolled out of bedI woke up this morning, and fell out of bed
Saw my man had a message
So I looked what it said

but you make too many empty promises
"Be right here" by Zola Qwabaza
2011-11-09The advice that you give me is amazing
The chats that we have are great
You inspire me not to give up in dreams
and you bring out the best in me
"I want it" by Zola Qwabaza
2011-11-09 They have everything I've wanted all my lifeThings that I have been praying to receive
Things I've thought of and am still thinking of
They're getting all that I'm supposed to get
And they hate me but I love me
