Ndauwe Zibuyile Izimakade Lyrics: I tried to love you babe You don’t want to be free Addicted to all your pain You stay bound to the streets I find it very lame That you fear yourself You live to lose yourself I offered to be your maze Got my buns honey glazed Perhaps it’s the mystery That comes with the God energy Acting so strange Like love is a Scary scary scary scary Monster from your childhood Denterente Nte nte-nte Denterente Nte nte-nte-nte Mfethu mina ngiyak’ncanwa Futhi uyangichaza Nom’ inkomish’ i-empty na Mina mfethu ngiyak’gcwala Kodwa wen’ uyasaba Vele why uyigwala Thanda ngath’ uyathandaza Thanda ngath’ uyakholwa Ukuthi usomandla Nezingelosi zakhe Bakuphe into enhle mfan’ Please my babe ungay’moshi Please my babe ungay’moshi Glory is running late, you don’t want to be free I find it very strange, you don’t want to be free Your trouble correlates With the fact that you won’t be free with me I’ll find another mate, I just want to be free Toxic have been my ways, when I seeked to be free Maybe another day you will find courage To love me freely I just want to be free
