juwon simmons - gothenburg love lyrics

hook[ mehari] :

i got that gothenburg love
juwon]: but still my heart in douala though
i got that gothenburg love
i got that love for the city
i got that gothenburg love

verse 1 [juwon simmons]

new constellations, i’m mapping where i am
a southern star in a northern land
a visionary formulating plans
see through the eyes of somebody coming from another land
no surprise in realizing you ain’t alice out in wonderland
back in the douala man, word spoken we’re in a neverland
how do i tell ’em that it’s all a scam
well not really
but sh-ts tricky
now i perceive clearly
with different eyes, like i borrowed new head
from a lady friend, selling body parts trying to make ’em ends meet
like the ten fingers of a handshake
never forget where we came from
love , we met each other at the crossroad
agreed to go the same way for a while
made a cameroonian stutter with a smile
and she not too bad to look at
i promised when it’s over she’ll be better
i’ll teach her how to do that

hook [mehari]

verse 2 [juwon simmons]:

i’ve known loss in this city, walked miles through this city
celebrated success, learned perseverance in this city
in a corner thinking of my circ-mstance, calculate my own advance
i’ve debated making other plans
but i heard stories way more tragic to be true
all experience is a lesson that should never leave you blue
regardless of where you started
every choice you ever made
has led you up to this moment
and your standing could improve
beautiful is this city it was love at first sight, we was on the first night
back and forth like every love story
she let you pat her the cheek and next she acting funny
that black gold she wanna have, but still she acting dirty
she flipping every thirty
a broken face with a pretty mask
a calm on the surface but there’s something under stirring fast
so may the odds be forever in your favor
rain wash away the pain like holy water
reminiscing douala

hook [mehari]:

a capella outro: [juwon simmons]

är det gött ena? är det glenn eller?
du känner mig? du vill hänga? jag ska hem men jag hör av mig
vi diskutera samhälle errday
men jag vill fråga dig en sak, what you doing about it
now can i drop the metaphors so i could make a point directly
got a message in this symphony, i speak if you don’t let me
these kids need a vision in the mirror
if you’re gonna set trends, how about you play a role model
i tell’em stay in school, dream
educations at your feet, better not to act a fool and cheat yourself out of
better chances
before opinions, you understand the numbers
and the politics of power
the balance between the cultures
i know it can be hard, dealing with social frustrations
but the only thing of value is progress and your ambitions
so, let all the the odds be forever in you favor
rain wash away your pain like holy water
