[Verse 1]
Zulu girl with a suitcase heart
Eight years eating love in Rome
Came back with fire in her smile
And a new way to own a room
Bold laugh
It cuts through smoke
Side-eye sharp like summer sun
She says
"I know all my shadows
I just dance with every one"
[Chorus]
Thandeka trouble
Sweet on the double
Sugar on the rim
Chaos in a bubble (hey!)
Walks in the house
And the walls lean in
'Cause she already knows she's gonna win
Thandeka trouble
Soft when you're close
Steel in her spine that nobody chose
Big love
Big mouth
Big heart on display
Thandeka
Thandeka
You won't look away
[Verse 2]
She switches tongues like turning keys
IsiZulu
Then a little slang
Soft "ciao" with a heavy truth
Every word got boom and bang
Eyes say
"baby
Watch your step"
Smile says
"come a little near"
She can hold your stormy secrets
And still check you in the mirror
[Chorus]
Thandeka trouble
Sweet on the double
Sugar on the rim
Chaos in a bubble (oh yeah)
Walks in the house
And the walls lean in
'Cause she already knows she's gonna win
Thandeka trouble
Wild but she’s grounded
Every loud room
She’s the one they’ve founded
Big laugh
Big love
Sharp mind at play
Thandeka
Thandeka
You won't look away
[Bridge]
She's not your crush of the moment
She's the chapter you recall
When you learned that strength means crying
Then still standing
Standing tall
[Chorus]
Thandeka trouble
Sweet on the double
Sugar on the rim
Chaos in a bubble
Owns every flaw like a favorite dress
Turns every "too much" into "blessed" (hey!)
Thandeka trouble
Soft when you're close
Steel in her spine that nobody chose
Big love
Big mouth
Big heart on display
Thandeka
Thandeka
You won't look away
