We fought to get off the slave yard
Now we fight to get us a green card
Why do we work for this stuff so hard?
How u living and you working grave yard?
Stand for days
At the american consulate
They're running late
Push back yor interview date
So you won't stay
They ask for a bank state
Meant to bring one
Forgot
Now they close gates
Bils ain't paid
Money spent on visa fees
You crying
Landlady standing vis a vis
Cest la vie mon amis
Ask uncle Kofi
Maybe he's got connections at the embassy
Used to be with this lady from Tennessee
If she says the word
Hello NYC
Immigration officer says
This is JFK
How long u plan to stay in the USA?
Till you get real rich
But you say 30 days
She knows you lying
But there's nothing that she can say
Grants you entry
Fingerprints
You say cheese
Now freeze in your shorts sleeves in their 30 degrees
We fought to get off the slave yard
Now we fight to get us a green card
Why do we work for this stuff so hard?
How u living and you working grave yard?
We fought to get off the slave yard
Now we fight to get us a green card
Why do we work for this stuff so hard?
How u living and you working grave yard?
Uh oh uh oh
No pocket money
Can't call home to ask mommy or daddy
See they used all they had on your plane fare
So to run game on them won't be playing fair
Whatever!
Mama dada! Am out of cash!
And so what? Get a damn job! Get off your ass!
We expecting a return on investment
And uncle Kofi said you should start to pay rent!
Dd d d dd d damn!
Dd d d dd d damn!
Can't get a job without social security
A friend takes pity says
Use ma I.D
Thanks, but um
I don't look like you
And I'm 6 foot
Your id says 5'2
So I get I'll just get paid under table
Wonder whats on TV
Oh no cable!
We fought to get off the slave yard
Now we fight to get us a green card
Why do we work for this stuff so hard?
How u living and you working grave yard?
We fought to get off the slave yard
Now we fight to get us a green card
Why do we work for this stuff so hard?
How u living and you working grave yard?
Culture shock
No one's really friendly
Especially if u don't drive a Bentley
If u a hussla go on then Jay-Z
U'll find a way to sell honey to bees
To be legal ye ye've got to marry
Or uh uh u could join the navy
But u don't want to kill Iraqis
Cuz life is worth more than some car keys
So I guess u've got limited options
Cuz uncle Sam don't do adoption
Unless u a basketball or soccer star
Footballer, aha afei na wo kasa
Could b a superstar like Floetry
But of course u would need dope poetry
So get u 10 grand & holla
Wut it do?
Meet me downtown mami & say I do
We fought to get off the slave yard
Now we fight to get us a green card
Why do we work for this stuff so hard?
How u living and you working grave yard?

Kil-li-ling
Someone is calling you
Homeland security interview
But um
The citizen is in a bad mood
She and her significant other argued
Hell naw I ain't going nowhere with you
Unless you buy me some new clothes and shoes!
Dd d d dd d damn!
What?
Ok ok ok ok ma'am
Green card application approved
Your lifestyle has even improved
But you far removed
From community
Culture is to consume
Buy security
Alarm system
But it is watching you
Like TV
Remote controlling you
Then 1 day you remember why you came here
To make some money go home and share!
We fought to get off the slave yard
Now we fight to get us a green card
Why do we work for this stuff so hard?
How u living and you working grave yard?
We fought to get off the slave yard

Se wanbesa tinasi
Bringin u somtin fancy
These Hardy Boys drew Nancy
Readin books givz me knowledge
It got me into college
Den I dropped out like Kanye
Esese yekano yie
Kulobor boy on the loose
Better off chasing a goose
Chale u whack vamoose
Stop

U can't do do do do dis
U get di di di di dissed
The rim I dunk n I kiss
Just a layup n u miss
Order in the court
We wana burn down the forts
Don't dare call dem castles
We punch u with our muscles
Stoppin colonialism
N the imperialism
N capitalismsim
N all those other isms
Bite me like plaigiarism
Ananse play the riddim
We gonna giv it 2 dem
Watch me just rip it again
Y u chisellin the beat?
Dey say the feelin is sweet
Dey whistlin on the street
Penicillin on dey feet
Ready 2 boogie all night
No 1 is wrong
Alright
Front like u ballin correct
Soon u'll b callin collect
Hahahahahahaha
Eish
Adjayjayjayjayjayish
Me dier let me laff som
Ma life's been very tuff son
Should hav seen us in the hood
Sometimes we barely had food
Restaurants threw theirs away
While som of us wer starvin
Legs lookin like Marvin's
The Martian
Not the Gaye
I don't hav homophobia
I'd like 2 get 2 know ya
The keyword is platonic
Or shift off like tiptronic
Or better yet tectonic
The 1st time I drank tonic
It was just too bitter
Dat's wot made me a spitter
I lov 2 rhyme all the time
Tell u som tins on ma mind
I wana help the children
In Ghana n Romania
As well as other countries
So so pls help me
By buying my cd
Not coppin it 4 free
Dat will make me so happy
Well giv tnx in advance
I'll never stop
Not a chance
I hope am makin u dance
Shoutout 2 all ma fans
DJs & taxi drivers
Tuba playin scuba divers
Big ups 2 Eddie Blay
N also Gyedu Blay
Ambolley still on the throne
Followed by Reggie Rockstone
Obrafuor & Scooby
Panji chale holla me
Am talkin like the drums
Telling my people to come
Right away 2 their senses
Stop buildin walls n fences
Sankofa is the key
Use it 2 set yor mind free
White plastic mentality
Me giv me ma waakye in leaves
Enfre mi obroni korkor
Half caste nso minpe
Wodie fre mi Wanlov
Odo baako Emmanuel
Owusu Bonsu yes
I can shake a blue whale
Or spin it round by its tail
6 foot tall tale male
Not a lapour tattle tail
Avoidin snakes' rattle tail
Aden woye owo?
Am hungry like homowo
Chale etorbo yaawo
Woh wor ba kpe hewor
Kaa sheygbey nokonoko
Enorr tamo Hausa kooko
The fire burnin like Robb
The pepper finish the job
Go mek e go yor inside
Den flip yor world upside
Down down down down
Down down down baby
Just like Nelly
Not Nelly Furtado
Am not a desperado
Being awinga is sad oh
Kiddieboops n kiddiebaps
Nyakapips n nyakapops
Dishambooz n dishambaaz
Party like 4 the last
Life is 2 short enjoy
But don't take it like a toy
I like alansa so much
N yoryee 2 2 much
Roasted plantain n groundnuts
Or fry it n add beans
Ei 4got the gari
Dat 1 dier soak it 4 me
Only water n sugar
Me mome I don't drink milk
So my voice is smooth like silk
Or maybe Boyz 2 Men
Like som catholic priests
Will we ever defeat?
All of these evil forces
Corporate intercourses
U sportin air forces
Joinin their armed forces
Y fight another man's war?
Wen he's plottin against u
Makes sure he keeps u poor
So u a likkle issue
So so divide n conquer
Hwehwe sisiaa yaboka
Wearin ma knickerbocka
Goin 2 Tema Station

The epidemics of hunger n AIDS
Innocent children...
I call unto the creator so much I pray
Leaders b responsible
Mistakes dey'v made
All yor fancy cars
And mansions on mars
How can yor hearts b made of such ice?
How can yor minds b made of cold stone?
Takin a sunny stroll down the streets of Accra
Ask the beautiful youth
What's the matter?
Oh bra the system hard give my mama n tata
So I dey help by sellin some ice water
I take a gulp of the liquid n I think
Dis child here can't even afford dis drink
I offer her some but she declines n smiles
Her dusty feet tell me dey have walked many miles
I ought 2 buy the rest of the water
But she refuses
Says it's strange
And she don't want my change
She's got pride like a family of lions
Hard work not charity will be relied on
Give thanks 4 her parents raised her well
With dat cool head 1 day she will freeze dis hell
Freeze this hell
How do we make it?
Livin life on the streets
I just can't take it
Blisters 4m the concrete
Y do most fake it?
Doin wot dey do 2 eat
Babylon I break it
Shackles off my brain, hands, n feet
How do we make it?
Livin life on the streets
I just can't take it
Blisters 4m the concrete
Y do most fake it?
Doin wot dey do 2 eat
Babylon I break it
Shackles off my brain, hands, n feet
Drivin late night thru the streets of Ploiesti
I c packs of children sellin their flesh
Y u doin dis?
Dece faceti asa?
Asa este
We hav no choice in the matter
Do yor parents know wot u r up 2?
Our parents dropped us off 2 make money 4 food
And dey r close by, watchin cryin, hopin
Other doors could b open
Barely coping barely coping barely coping
Is der no healin, 4 dis helpless feelin?
My stomach is reelin
With wot kind of devil r we dealin?
I fight 2 bring back the souls it is stealin
Souls it is stealin
How do we make it?
Livin life on the streets

Think positive
Things will b ok
If u change the way u look at things
Those things will change
And b prepared 4 anytin
Coz life is strange

Shackles off my brain, hands, n feet
How do we make it?

Kotoka airport Accra
soccer is our favorite sport
aha!

here take ma bag to the taxi
Iām in Ghana men
tune from Ranks Shabba and Priest Maxi
it's shaygaylaygay with the Reggae
eating abele and groundnuts
some ice kenkey or abebe
doesn't even sounds nuts
here
smiles are free
they are not by force
they are not fake
we have a lot of peace officers
and very few jakes
cool sea breeze
very bearable weather
when we say it's our pleasure
we really mean it's our pleasure
wildlife diverse cultures
exotic fruit
ntama and ahenema
or show and political suit
some of us are so rich
some of us are so poor
if you test our limits
you'll hear
onyaye sorrrr
if she did her job well u won't hear it
if u don't respect a threat
at least u must fear it
turn on the radio
th4kwages or Rockstone
give me some Obrafuor Tinny V.I.P
& am in da zone
better yet give me some Ambolley
give me some Osibisa
TV Dr.Rokoto Mc'Jordan Idikoko
proverbs r used we respect our elders
we don't waste
first thing in the morning
after praying toothpaste
wash your face do your chores
use a sponge to bath
just a soap and small towel
aren't enough so don't laugh
night life? don't test yo
we've got clubs
down here we have stunners too
so we've got dubs
don't b surprised if u see superstars
in the disco
Wanlov can dance and it's not b'coz
I went to Adisco
big up all ma cape posses
Toady posse Tema posse
Kumasi posses
hey!!!!! but catch me in Accra
buying pure water at Achimota
chale
there's so much to see
wild animals from desert to bush to sea
the best beer
if u drink too much
don't cross the gutter
never scared
but I was a strong phobia supporter
extended families living together
in 1 compound
when we speak it's not digital
but it's surround sound
out of 1 love
we all eat out of 1 bowl
world cup everybody runs outside
when Ghana scores goal!!!!
home of Kwame Nkrumah & Nelson Azuma
no gun crimes no wars
but watch for Ike's bazooka
Mutabaruka was here
will smith was here
Clinton was here
public enemy was here
Shabba was here
to be fair sport
Iāll just cut da list short
wanna meet me at prisons
bring a b-ball or no court
kenkey banku fufu
waakye check-check chofi
top it off with some bluna tropic
asaana or poki
Bobo Shantis in Kumasi
that's our Adis Ababa
I know your next move
so welcome
and that's akwaaba!

So chale mek u no lose hope oh try oh
I get som vision
I reason thru wey I mek ma descision
With prescision
And dedication accomplished my mission
Not by wishin
Upon a star but rather going fishin
Splishin splashin rushin
Sometimes even crashin
Gnashin
Of teeth
4m whip-lashin
Dashin
4 the finish line
With all my passion
Rationed
My income
So I stopped followin fashion
Flashin
A smile
When my check started cashin
Givin
Cuz 2 me it felt better than receivin
Believin
In the goodness of mankind
Not religion
Indigin-
-ous people
Break their language like pidgen
Bridgin
The cultural gap by tracin the origin
Cookin
With the sun & soil like Aborigine
Not cuttin
All the trees down in the Ashanti Region
U can do it
Mother nature needs u 2 start fightin
I'm out plantin seeds
Not just writin
Me I never ever go die oh

Life b magic
Mek u no shake wen e defy ya logic
It's tragic
Wen a blessin heads yor way n u dodge it
Dis-lodge it
From their dirty hands
Else dey will smudge it
Budge it budge it budge it budge it
Budget
Feed yor spirit
Don't let negative energy near it
Repair it
Sometimes air it don't just grin and bear it
Pair it
With other positive beings dat merit
Dare it
To always grow but don't u wear and tear it
Inherit
The ways of happy people don't follow
Hollow
A-holes dat make yor soul fall low
Don't borrow
From sharks
Keep your eye on the sparrow
Sorrow
Don't let it eat u down 2 yor marrow
Arrow
U got 2 b like 1 and walk the narrow
Visit Cairo
Know yor ancestors were African Pharoahs
Tarot
Cards
Tell me of brighter tomorrows tomorrows
Tomorrow tomorrows tomorrows
