Jidenna, how many times did I call you?
You are a stubborn bull, just like your father
I donât understand you, o
Your Auntie and I warned you not to come during election season
But you would not listen
Where is my, my palm wine?
You know I like to drink palm wine. Yes....
So, all Iâm saying is Jidenna, look:
The cow that is in the hurry to go to America will come back here as corned beef
Do you understand?
Shine your eye
Although we are brothers, your uncle, you know Magnus
Will be the one to make the first move on your life
As for the security guards, they were your fatherâs best men
They are now yours
Keep them close to you at all times
But remember:
When you are in the village, you are with your family
But your family may not be with you
Savage are the man and his band of thieves
So heavy is the head of he that wears the ring
But a lion donât ever lose sleep when it come to sheep
And just like wolves on the prowl to eat
They act in wool but they speak in peace
But I canât hide nor run from the ones whoâll come for me
Tell âem come for me
Bald head, red kufi, and shades
They be thinking I got oil money and slaves
Iâm on the way to put my poppa in his grave
In a disguise, riding in a motorcade
And Iâve come to bury him in the jungle
Itâs where we were from so a nigga stayed humble
Now donât fumble, donât stumble, donât trip
Kidnappers could snatch and ambush your kids
Iâm on the low I ain't tryna be a martyr
It donât help I stand out like a foreigner
Nah I ainât a balla
But armed robbers think Iâm made of top dollars
I made a promise
When I was six and guerillas ran up on us
Taking my sis, beating the shit out of my mama
Shot âme in the foot put a bullet through my armor
Iâmma kill âem when I see âem again
So the prince got knights in all black hanging out the side doors
AKs on they back shining like swords
Pops would say âOnce youâre bitten by a snake
The paranoia make you pop a lizard in the faceâ
[Instrumental]
The village hear the guns firing
A salute and a siren, Chiefâs arriving
I walk by the choir and drummers vibinâ
The parade so alive you wouldnât think someone died
They shoutinâ âOur chief is with usâ
Strangers claim they my cuz
They plottinâ to take all my land
They must forgot who the fuck dat I am
I greet my uncles with a case of gifts
From the thrift, they treat it like Saks Fifth
He greet me with a dish
Iâve weighed the risk
Paid the cater to switch plates in case itâs a hit
These muhâfuckas wanna poison my soup
I wish I could trust âem like the boys in blue, but uh...
In the villa, never eat what they give ya
Youâre with your fam but your fam may not be wit ya
[Instrumental]
They lower him in the ground
I shovel dirt on the mound
Darkness falling, I canât stick around
No time to grieve, one hour the flight leaves
I feel thieves and witches within the trees
Hop in a Jeep and on dirt road we speed
Someone chasing us, Hummers chasing us
A runaway train, I ainât taking no breaks in this
Ride muthafucka! Don't take it slow! Ride mutha--
Ride muthafucka! Don't take it slow! Ride mutha--
Ride muthafucka! Don't take it slow! Ride mutha--
Ride muthafucka! Don't take it slow! Ride mutha--
