[Intro: R.B.D. & Kirani Ayat]

Ɛka reba oo (Jaa ni in jaa ka)

Ɛka reba oo (Jaa ni in jaa ka)

Ɛka reba oo (Jaa ni in jaa ka)

[Verse 1: KooKusi]

My greatest fear be say mentum mmeet hɔn expectations

My greatest fear be say mentum nreach me destination

My greatest fear be say abɛn no bɛbɔ mu no

Then I no fini dey figure the way I for navigate

Past the gate

Past the castigations

Past the woanyɛ sei, woanyɛ sɛɛ

Woantɔ Range, woangye bread

Woangye Nobel Prize, woangye Grammy

Woangye baako diɛ a

Sɛ man of many hats, your legacy all be cap

I keep up appеarances but on the real

I taya dеy hyɛda say I no hyɛda dey taya

On God e be me

Me wey I dey lead the hymns

Me I dey wash Roman Father ein shada

Awurade I’m holding your garments

So why say I still for dey bleed?

Why say I still no dey see top

And I never dey fit talk about it

I dey run around it

All the push and the pull

And the doors all no dey gbele

I’m dreading the time I’m telling my daughters

“Wo papa na meyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne

Neuroscience, the lyrical wonders

Mo father de aniɛden

Keeping the hopes alive…”

Hwɛ rosy picture bi a m’apainti

Kofi, I dey try survive

Nyɛ “doctor doctor” bi a merepɛ nti

Kɔ!

[Hook: R.B.D. & Kirani Ayat]

Hey! (Me neman be a sara)

I dey contemplate make I shun or

Chale make I do full time for the game?

Hey! (Me neman be a sara)

No fit concentrate cause the bills

Just dey gallivant on top of my brain!

Hey! (Me neman be a sara)

I dey contemplate make I shun or

Chale make I do full time for the game?

Hey! (Me neman be a sara)

No fit concentrate cause the bills

Just dey gallivant on top of my brain!

[Verse 2: R.B.D.]

Suh cum tuh mi yaad fi mi story

Glory to God, '21, I was called to the Bar

That be when I know life hard but law too be hard

I never dey rest oo

Then I be some shawty ein presdo

Wey some nigga make I know coup d'etat

From then on, it was onyɛ sɔɔ mo nyinaa

Started changing my tactics

Now I dey put all the pain in the practice

My salary be the same but the fact is (vim dey!)

So cleaning my shit up is never some mental gymnastics

I'm still in the cactus

My spine dey cry

I slave away for the nine-to-five

My boss dey crack whips

My boys dey black whips plus money dey snap chicks

What be the taxes?

Bank account fit dry some shawty ein vag lips

Only way I be getting them wet, is if I be funny –

Or chapsticks!

(I vex herh! No get ref sef chale)

The way I dey fit gali

I dey trek eh, be like Kigali to Michigan

But how foolish I've been

How I fit forget that Rude is a friend?

Wey ein pen fire like Lucifer's hand

So Hell yeah, I'm not losing again

Even if I for conclude with a sin

Maybe this lawyer's presumed innocent

But I'm still a savage

Kinda rusty — no be Sabich

You for trust me

Though I'm a newbie and cannot stop living in denial

Yeah it’s wild

But I never dey give a fuck about who's listening

Cause it’s clear I’m a rebel

They said I'm a devil

But man, I'm Gepetto pulling the strings

And it's pedal to the metal

Till they get on my level, I never go settle

I’m a true litigant

But I catch the court sef late

This track, I for do econs sef pay

Wey I no fit concentrate cause the bills

Just dey gallivant on top of my brain!
