South African hip-hop rapper AKA has taken to his social media account to share a snippet of a song many think he wrote for his late fiancée Anele Tembe who died tragically in April.
In the song grieving, AKA talked about how hard it is to wake up each morning without the love of his life by his side. According to Celebsnow.com, the song is not yet out, so the transcription of the song is as the listener heard it. Some of the words might not be correct as everything was based on phonological interpretation.
Check out the lyrics of the song below:
Hook
First thing on my mind/When I wake up.
I cannot feel sunshine with you not waking up by my side.
Nothing else can replace us. Try to break down and cry, but all my tears run dry.
We left out some parts of the hook that were harder to hear.
Verse
I was you in my dreams
(Second line was unclear to us)
Not because I don’t want to link up with you again
But because when I wake up reality Is deep.
Check my phone I reach I could see usual routine
Damn, we had so many plans mfanagithi
And I call you that because you my bestie not my bi**t
When I got to bed you gon remind me brush your teeth
That’s my favourite version of you, you were just at ease
I found the most beautiful girl I had ever seen.
Meanwhile, AKA has recently opened up on what actually happened on the day Anele commited suicide at the Pepper Club Royal hotel in a sit down with season journalist Thembekile Mrototo.
AKA revealed that Nellie took her own life following an argument that they had.
“Got to the point where we argued more and the thing that really breaks my heart – I have my ring with me – it’s the only thing that I have of her belongings and she took it off and threw it at me. We said very mean things to each other and I left the room. Came back to her room because I had taken her phone.
“And things took a turn for the worst when we got to a point in the argument where Anele kind of threatened to kill herself. I had called reception for security and kind of tried to remove myself from the situation. And I think out of panic, I didn’t want to be there or feel that this was going to happen. So I went to the bathroom and when I came out of the bathroom she wasn’t in the room. And I looked around the room – she wasn’t there – I get to the balcony and I look down to the street, that’s where she was.”
