From rock bottom to own to up above and beyond I could probably be wrong but this is where I belong While I'm rocking le fatse, Kahn's rocking the world He sang it from the heart, I rapped it from month phelong I been showered with blessings but the devil's tryna test me Hundreds that envy me, wishing it was the end of me But these don't mean a thing to me sleep's my only enemy Dream ke di naledi Dreams now a reality, sleepwalking
Now I'm Xhosa and Khuli Chana is Tswana but I tried.
"Le fatse" means "the nation". He acknowledges his dominance in the SA hip hop industry and that of Kahn Morbee and his Parlotones band's international success.
"He sang it from the heart, I rapped it from month phelong" "bophelo" is "life" in Tswana, so he sang it from life's perspective, I think.
"Dream Ke di naledi" I kind of struggled with this one but it basically means "dreams are the stars".. "Naledi" is a Tswana name for a "star".
Chana Power!!!
