Viewing lyrics for Joburg City by Antonio Lyons.

Watch my eyes as I walk these streets
Hawkers selling needless treats
people pack the sidewalks carrying me along
from Norte to Bree/ Carlton Center's View of the World/ Newtowns' Cultural Precinct
my people on the Markets stage(square) and spill into Mary's square.
My heart beats from the south and Soweto
Shisa nyama around Alex way
blinging with the tourist into Sandton Square
Jozi is all the same to me.
The place where my soul soars and I know that life is more.
A small town boy who came o chase his destiny
life doesn't begin until you live your Joburg dream.
A world class African city
she holds her own on a global stage
they come from far and wide to witness the pride in my eyes
Jozi sits in the corners of my smile and creeps into every step I take.
No matter where I am Jozi (She) oozes through my bones
scenting the air like street side fat cakes and summers dusty streets
see the air shimmer those Jozi house beats drifting right through me.
From the rising of the sun to the setting of the moon Jozi is the place to be.
