[Chant: Sheksy]

Gye wo ya to gni lon ma


[Verse 1: ReubenRane]

Born sinner eating leftover burnt dinner

Aunties complaining that I’m growing thinner

Growing in Minna, I was the little gold winner

But an orphan often knows coffins, his heart grows with no loving

Heart never unlocking, guess that’s not a problem

Mind and body got toughened, aiming to hurt something

Baby growing ungoverned, now all of a sudden

There’s dough hot in the oven a’ ko ina

[Hook: Keith Stanfield & Sheksy]

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Gye wo ya to gni lon ma

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Gye wo ya to gni lon ma

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

To live a life not knowing what a normal life’s like


[Verse 2: ReubenRane]

I’m close home but my car broke down at Paiko

Easily I lost it and became a psycho

One day making all these money may just break all the spells

And I’ve taken all the L’s I can’t take nothing else

I’m on a wave surfing on the blood of these rappers

They do it for the now, they don’t do it for the after

You’re a wet firecracker, I’m a nuclear reactor

To step up to that level you gon simply just have to

[Hook: Keith Stanfield & Sheksy]

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Gye wo ya to gni lon ma

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Gye wo ya to gni lon ma

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

Look into my eyes so you know what it’s like

To live a life not knowing what a normal life’s like


[Verse 3: ReubenRane]

I’m not known at home but I wanna be king in all cities

Got lost almost drowned in the floods of Gidi

For the secrets of life I used to be needy

It’s okay my father left me all these Bob Marley CDs

If Snowflake had his father he would want him to tell him that

If Sheksy had his father he would want him to tell him that

If I had my father I would want him to tell me that

Or if I had a kid I would really love to tell ‘em that-

[Outro: Jon Favreau & Emjay Anthony]

Jon Favreau: Slow down for a second. Is this boring to you?

Emjay Anthony: No, I like it

Jon Favreau: Yeah well, I love it. Everything that’s good that’s happening in my life came because of that. I might not do everything great in my life. Okay? I’m not perfect. I’m not the best husband and I’m sorry if I wasn’t the best father but I’m good at this and I wanna share this with you. I wanna teach you what I learned. I get to touch people’s lives with what I do and it keeps me going and I love it and I think if you give it a shot you might love it too

Emjay Anthony: Yes, Chef

Jon Favreau: That’s my son. Get back in there, we got hungry people. He’s ready to cook!
