[Intro]
Yeah man, temptations is high, temptations is high
Mo’ Jozi ba lahla, s’ka lahla
S’ka lebala gore o tletseng moo
Spaneng spana…

[Chorus: Kaygee & Towdee]
Jozi city lights, too bright
Bana ba ko gaye ba fahlwa ke di-ipone
And I don’t why ba sa tswe mo go tsone
Morafe kopantshang buang le bone
You have to realize, open your eyes
From these spotlights (Otherwise)
You’ll always be blinded by them

[Verse 1: Towdee]
I got the binne plaas blues, success how guys like us do
Guys from the number last bundu shacks, you relax
And let me start to tell you
When I come phatlalats’ you, party boy bumba clot you
Fithlе Jozi fatlhwe ke di-ipone digashu
Lе ja school fees le sokole in clubs who’s the fool
Who’s gonna finally find you
When your rent, metsi and motlakase due
Eintlek le nahana le bo mang lona
Balling every Saturday night ha le span, mos
Gow’ tshwan’ mos, la lahla boss, la fahlwa
Lost and found by makgata, mo kgare ga strata
Mo gare ga di plakka, o tshwerwe ka dikata
Ga ba bona niks vele Jozi lights di a fatlha
[Chorus: Kaygee & Towdee]
Jozi city lights, too bright
Bana ba ko gaye ba fahlwa ke di-ipone
And I don’t why ba sa tswe mo go tsone
Morafe kopantshang buang le bone
You have to realize, open your eyes
From these spotlights (Otherwise)
You’ll always be blinded by them

[Verse 2: Khuli Chana]
I got a call from o’lady a re: "Khuli, e tla gae."
Ka dibala as she started bugging me I asked why
She said, "Child, Jozi city lights, it's a must to make it out"
My mom's what I'm willing to elevate to the sky
She cried, ke sam sokolo
Me and Morafe eating from the same skotlolo
I got the cool aid when I get lebotlolo
I got some loose change o tla thola those or more
O sa phumula thoko moo
Nna ke lepara wena o paraletseng
Move something I’ll show something wena o makaletseng?
Took nada turned it into zaka, u palletswe keng?
(It takes lenyora, it takes lepara to dlala this game)
Bana ba mo gaye ba fatlhwa ke dipone
And I don’t know ba sa tswe mo go tsone
Bana ba mo gaye ba fatlhwa ke dipone
And I don’t know why ba sa tswe mo go tsone
[Chorus: Kaygee & Towdee]
Jozi city lights, too bright
Bana ba ko gaye ba fahlwa ke di-ipone
And I don’t why ba sa tswe mo go tsone
Morafe kopantshang buang le bone
You have to realize, open your eyes
From these spotlights (Otherwise)
You’ll always be blinded by them

Jozi city lights, too bright
Bana ba ko gaye ba fahlwa ke di-ipone
And I don’t why ba sa tswe mo go tsone
Morafe kopantshang buang le bone
You have to realize, open your eyes
From these spotlights (Otherwise)
You’ll always be blinded by them

[Verse 3: Kaygee]
Ha le verstaane van di wane
Let me tell you something
Ga le tlhaloganye, oh no (No-no-no)
Maobane u itse ka hosane
Today you acting funny
U ntsha matlho mo dilong (U ntsha mathlo mo dilong)
City lights too bright, be strong
Everyday le cheswa ke ditlhase
Wasting days le bafana ba ko kasi
'Cause in a way ba jewa ke lefatshe
Bonang le banyana ba teng ba phutlugane
Ha le swabe
Don’t wanna hear your story ha se tlhakane
Don’t wanna waste step back to reality
[Chorus: Kaygee & Towdee]
Jozi city lights, too bright
Bana ba ko gaye ba fahlwa ke di-ipone
And I don’t why ba sa tswe mo go tsone
Morafe kopantshang buang le bone
You have to realize, open your eyes
From these spotlights (Otherwise)
You’ll always be blinded by them

Jozi city lights, too bright
Bana ba ko gaye ba fahlwa ke di-ipone
And I don’t why ba sa tswe mo go tsone
Morafe kopantshang buang le bone
You have to realize, open your eyes
From these spotlights (Otherwise)
You’ll always be blinded by them
