weglobe - isale eko lyrics

[incantation]
ọlọ́run àgbàyé, mo wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ
(god of the universe, i come before you)
àwọn baba àgbà, ẹ gbọ́ mi
(ancient fathers, hear me)
ilẹ̀ mi èkó, mo ti padà sílé
(my land lagos, i have returned home)
[building with traditional drums]
àṣẹ àṣẹ àṣẹ o!
ìgbà tó bá yá, a ó rí
(when the time comes, we shall see)
ẹni tó bá gbọ́n, yóó mọ̀
(he who is wise will understand)

[verse 1]
i come from where sh+t gets real
island boy, you know how i feel
my grandmama told me bout the old days
now i’m here to bring back the old ways
streets taught me everything i know
been hungry, been broke, been low
but the spirit in me won’t die
lagos blood, i reach the sky

[bridge]
èmi ni mo mọ̀ (i am the one who knows)
òtítọ́ ni mo ń sọ (truth is what i speak)
àṣẹ mi kò ní tán (my power will not finish)
láé láé láé (forever and ever)
[verse 2]
they don’t know what we been through
sleeping four people in one room
mama crying, papa drinking palm wine
but we made it out, now it’s my time
i seen my friends die young
i seen good people get hung
but i kept my faith strong
that’s why i’m still here singing this song

[incantation]
kí àwọn tó fẹ́ gbọ́ kí wọ́n gbọ́
(let those who want to hear, let them hear)
kí àwọn tó fẹ́ gbọ́ mọ̀ kí wọ́n mọ̀
(let those who want to understand, let them understand)
èmi ọmọ èkó
(i am a child of lagos)
fuji moto ti bẹ̀rẹ̀
(fuji moto has begun)
y’all better remember where you came from…
