Yebo, I Heard You

[Intro] Yebo I heard you Monday, half past two Say it plain [Verse 1] Seven voice notes, every one begins with “bro” Battery died, tyre went flat, network moving slow You said it was already sent, said it was on the way Then you sent a laughing face and tried to change the day I am not your headmaster, I don’t need a perfect line If the thing is not completed, say it straight and save my time Small promises get heavy when you stack them in a room Don’t send another “almost”; bring the thing you said you’d do [Pre-Hook] No shouting, no debate You named a time and place Words can leave the chat Meet me with the fact [Hook] Yebo, I heard you Every voice note, every “soon” You said Friday after payday Now the month has moved on too Yebo, I heard you No performance, no excuse Keep the long explanation Let your next move be the truth [Post-Hook] I heard you, yebo Now show me, yebo No drama, mfowethu Let the next move do the talking [Verse 2] I know life can turn the route and put a queue across the plan I can work with honest trouble, I can’t work with shifting sand Send “not ready,” I respect it; send “tomorrow,” make it true I would rather hear a no in daylight than wake up waiting on you [Pre-Hook] No shouting, no debate You named a time and place Words can leave the chat Meet me with the fact [Hook] Yebo, I heard you Every voice note, every “soon” You said Friday after payday Now the month has moved on too Yebo, I heard you No performance, no excuse Keep the long explanation Let your next move be the truth [Bridge] Can you do it? — Say yebo Can’t you do it? — Tell me no Need a day? — Name the day Need a hand? — Show the way Ngiyakuzwa, loud and clear Bring that straight talk over here One clean answer, face to face Then we both can move with grace [Final Hook] Yebo, I heard you Every voice note, every “soon” You said Friday after payday Now the month has moved on too Yebo, I heard you No performance, no excuse Keep the long explanation Let your next move be the truth (Kulungile, now we can speak) [Outro] Yebo I heard you Say it once Then make it true
