Built This City

Lekoko Entertainment e go tlisetsa
Bakhuduthamaga ba kabinete ya motswako
Two sekete and six
Tsa dikatara di diragatswa ke Thabiso Tsotetsi
Bago sa moitsi ba mmitsa Thasman
Pula Motswana Pula

We built this city (On Motswako, lyric ya Setswana for a war with a big ass mojako)
We built this city (Re loga maano, Keywest meets North West sena ke kopagano)
We built this city (Ga di tswe ditlhobolo, thuntsa kulo lefoko, se ke lebopo)
We built this city (From mere six bop to a thousand now we living in Motswako lit housing)

We built this city from meru le mefero ya tshimo
That should tell you we not really big on pyramid schemes
Gara tata re gobane jaara ja ka balemi
Kgosi puso ke ya ba melomo e mesehla ja ka badidi
Fa di supile tlala next di supa kgora
Fa le utlwile kgang ba chayele fa ba u botsa
Ga o se o reditse Motswako foundation
Ke khupa lerama like lekunutu lame le morena (We built this city)
On the tomb ya ga Solomon Plaatjie
From the womb o tswe o tshwere botaki
In the rooms where you find us go tswile kgotla re apere dibatjie
This is not a record label re party
Now we built this city with two ma-handsa
Botsa fela wena we got the answers
If not you can catch me on the BBC X
Soon I’ll be signing those BEE cheques

We built this city (On Motswako, lyric ya Setswana for a war with a big ass mojako)

I wanna go tsa bo four
Ke tlhagise to let you know how its gonna go
Ho tla bo mreppa ka di-flow
Otlo tlala ke dlale ke ya o phala
Fat rhymes o ka dikala wa balabala ska lebala
We built this city ka Motswako
Gaborone to Mmabatho setse le phutile le mophato
Testing one two semulula kgaso
Party killing ke Mmabatho (We built this city)
Now we front line committee
Tsotlhe diya tsamaelana like metsi le pidipidi
Niks makirikiri ke o kitle ka skill
Lekoko la nnete Mafikeng, Gab City
Being hungry I know tla pitseng get feeding
Le mme hare siye bonyenyane boo o bofiwang bo dirise
You start with building gradually you increasing
Building this city

We built this city on dong-gong diggie-diggie
Laat ons microphone pass on bitjie
Ntsha tlhong let the flow control beat
Tandalaza let the baseline show jiggy
Crew builders of the names Moagi
Crew big now they don’t call us Morafe they call us lefatshe
Santa ditena cement le pente
We build Motswako as a government
See o seka itsenya mo tsiyetsing
Otla tsiyetsega wa bo o khawatha something
We ain't striking this truck to destruct
The things we bring is from ko pele to the back
Motswako o tla go tsenya mo tsietsing
Otla tsietsega bo o khawatha something
We ain't striking this truck to destruct
The things we bring is from the bottom to the top Motswako
