1 Tsotsi LyricsThe leaves outside my window pane
Stir winds in me like hurricanes
Guess I’m staying up late again
My mind conjures up footstep creaks
Long for lullabies from house keys (then scream)
Nceda ucime umculo
Thinking there’s no way
You’re not coming home at 8
It’s a school day
Come on walk through the gate
Say if the monsters want you
They’ll have to get through me first
Marmite nights
Dragged by slowly
Satellites
Begged you to find me
I was home fearing thе bad guys
But you were out
Stealing my pеace
Like a Tsotsi
There was smoke fire but no braai
Those dreamless sleepless cloudless nights
Woke Saturn's rings beneath my eyes
You might also likeThinking there’s no way
You’re not coming home today
When mom’s away
Come on walk through the gate
Say if the monsters want you
They’ll have to get through me first
Marmite nights
Dragged by slowly
Satellites
Begged you to find me
I was home fearing the bad guys
But you were out
Stealing my peace
Like a Tsotsi
Those moments
Left holes in my ozone
I’m ok now
Taking control
I was home fearing the bad guys
I’m no longer sad
Stole my peace back
Like a tsotsi
No I’m no longer mad
I’m no longer mad
Even though I resent the pain
You can’t change the world by staying the same
No you can’t change the world
You can’t change the world by
Staying the same
Staying the same no no no
Those moments left holes in my ozone (left holes in my ozone)
But I’m ok now taking control (but I’m ok now)
Cause I I I I I I I I I was losing sleep
But I I I I I I I I I stole my peace back like a Tsotsi
