BENGITHI NGIYAKWAZI.

I don’t wanna go around and think I know anyone

Just know that, a person will always show you their side that they want you to know.

Just because I know my name, doesn’t mean that I know your story.

Just because your face looks familiar doesn’t mean I know you.

Just because I can see your smile, doesn’t mean you’re truly happy.

That…

Yes I know.

Bengithi ngiyakwazi, kanti angibuzanga elangeni

Ukucabanga ukuthi ngiyakwazi kwashabalalisa okwamazolo ebona ilanga.

Bengingazi ukuthi kanti naleli langa liyeza.

Sengifundile ukuthi abo “bengithi noma ngithi noma mina ngazi ukuthi noma bengizwe kuthiwa”

Izinto ekumele ukhohlwe izona.

Ingoba nje, singabantu kodwa IsiZulu sithi

“Ngamane uthembe itshe kunokuthemba umuntu”

Ngike ngithi ke mina, ungabothemba muntu ngempela ngoba kwalona lelotshe liyosuswa umuntu lo
okumele ungamuthembi vele.

Bengithi ngiyakwazi, kanti angikwazi.

Ukwazi ukungenza isilima wangitshengisa into ekungeyona, ngithi uwena kanti akuwena.

Ngisasho namanje,

Bengithi Ngiyakwazi.
WHAT’S THE POINT?

Sometimes I sit down and think about…

What’s actually the point?

Am I on some mission that that I don’t know and will never know about?

But also think about this..

What’s the point of living if you always feel like you’re never meant to be happy?

Just drown in euphoria, Pure joy?

What’s the point of loving someone who doesn’t love you back?

To be honest, what’s the point of even feeling something for that person?

What’s the point of waking up in the morning but you wish it was dark outside already because you ain’t
feeling right and you don’t know how to feel right?

Make it make sense and tell me the point?

Only if I had a way to stay as a kid,

Because at this point I don’t even know what’s going on? What’s going off?

At this point I just feel like growing up is a trap

Because what’s the point?

You’re trying to prove a point that I don’t even know where it’s pointing,

I don’t even know what’s your point

You can try to prove the point but I don’t care about that,

You’re a human being, you lay next to me and lie to me,

Say whatever I wanna hear, sounding like music in my ear,

Because you say so, like what’s the point?

Just know that “Action speaks louder than words”

So my focus is on your actions,

If it’s not that then what's the point?
