STON£ COLD Lyrics

Wow now about when you were a kid

What was like around the house?

What was it like with your mother and father?

And let's try and put together what we know now

What the situation was like in childhood

Uh, boys boys no be fam

Nti now me movi with sense

Akata sɛm no m'agyae

Nansa yi m'ensaggi me pants

Used to really be mischievous

Last year I nearly quit

But I had to reassure myself

Sɛ life is a fight till the end

Let's take it back to scratch

I really was coming from nothing

Nti m'enflexi with cash

Me wɔ bills tua

Same time me wɔ beat sua

Nti any lickle time I get

I hit the road and then I dash yeah

That's the thin line between a boy and a man

Used to dream of being rich

But now I stay up and work

Weyi nyinaa kyerɛ sɛ

I no even get time to spare

First time I pounced on a dollar bill

I froze in despair

Had to sit back and stare

Uha, I missed having conversations with granny

She told me Yaw

Life is not just about money

Rich is a mentality

Broke is the math to life

Nti na obia wɔ ne formula uha

It's kind of funny

Day in day out

Mankind for get the bread

Them say money dey the internet

That be why I still dey bet

Every person suppose live with purpose

But instead

We doing risky things for the kwacha

Sake of ei we no dey bed

Nansayi I shun making friends

Also, I shun chasing trends

I always dey find cash

To reinvest in ma pens

I'm my own architect

Cos I'm still making plans

On how to build myself a career

Wey go last till the end

Till then ma soul no fit rest

I found faith in a place nobody believed us

Spiritual quest on how to

Really fight ma demons

If I die before I wake

Menim I really left a sinner

African version of Jeffrey Dahmer

Murdering beats for ma dinner

Lord forgive me

Neighbors uhm there seem to be

A lotta arguments with the neighbors

But I think it was enthusiastically received

By most of the students over there
