Indaba yami le (indaba yami le, this is my story)
Indaba yami le (indaba yami le, this is my story)
Ngiphakamise, this is my story
Ngiphakamise
Hold me, ah (hold me)
This is my story
Indaba yami le (indaba yami le, this is my story)
Indaba yami le (indaba yami le, this is my story)
Ngiphakamise (ngiphakamise)

Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear Damini
Happy birthday to you
How old are you now?
(Oh, man)
(Glory, yeah)
Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you ever seen me, hold me, ah (yeah, glory, ah)
Lately, I've been fucked up, been havin' a hard time
Like back when my dawg died (died)
Felt my heart split apart like apartheid ('theid)
I could have survived ('vived), thug life full of combine (glory, ah)
Hold it down (down), I was sentenced by the crown
And I never used to smile, though I never used to frown (frown)
Ten toes on the ground, what the hell?
My life came turnin' around from runnin' wild in my town to the glory (glory, ah)
Hold me, ah (ngiphakamise)
This is my story, yeah (indaba yami le)
(Glory, yeah) glory, yeah
Like the last time that you ever seen me, hold me, ah
Oh-oh, oh (glory, ah)
I remember when they shipped me from the can
To Chelmsford HMP and my celly had it bad (bad)
So, I had to have his back (back), niggas started fightin'
And then they cut me on my hand
So, I grabbed one from the back and I flung him off the landin' (glory, ah)
You know the screws get extra ruthless when you're black (black)
Layin' on my back, now the block's feelin' mad
Now, I'm in the lab (lab) tryna do the best I can
(Glory, ah)
Hold me, ah
This is my story, yeah, mm-mm
(Glory, yeah) glory, yeah
Like the last time that you ever seen me, hold me, ah
Said first things first
I finna let you know that I been bad since birth
I heard it from the nurse
Lookin' and was searchin' through trials that occurred
Then, I start workin' twice as hard
Havin' nightmares of the day I fall off
But, I stick around like herpes, I ain't lettin' up
With harmonies just like Bone Thugz, ooh
Hold me, ah
This is my story, yeah, mm-mm
Glory, yeah
Like the last time that you ever seen me, hold me, ah
Glory, yeah
Indaba yami le (glory)
This is my story (glory)
Indaba yami le (glory)
This is my story (glory)
Indaba yami le (glory)
This is my story (glory)
Indaba yami le (glory)
Okay, alright, on three
This is my story
