Lyrics
Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh [God Knows] So far man I still feel like ain't even started yet My career ain't even happened, just a succession of Drills and I ain't talking Chiеf Keef, section or 67 Been doing this since I was elеven Only to realize it was stranger things Always been too aware of things, like the poverty in my family That's why I give it everything, it's not just a rapping thing It's not just a music thing, it's a life thing When you didn't hear me I was writing Never felt right in, I was too black or too white Too left or too right, take two lefts and two rights Still didn't get to the right place But put me on a riddim then I fit in to the right place Or the right places, and then I'm off to the races I just want to run again I got motivation in my feet So pardon my language but I just want my bloody shoes like I'm Cardi B Got another me, inside me, that's dying to out me So allow me to reintroduce myself, my name is God Knows Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh [MuRli] Maize meal with cassava leaves I prefer my molu with black eyes beans Shitoh coco with banana puffs in the evening Skin glowing with yokumi enriching my melanin Assembled by a small sized SECAM TV screen In the courtyard, saving up on electricity My early heroes looked like everything except me Bruce Lee, Louis de Funes or JCVD The real influencers were those behind the scenes Drawing water from the well so my body knows what's clean Filling me in on the truth about Légba and goblins We were always more than guinea pigs and vaccines Raised to welcome strangers with glee Especially those from above who would flatter to deceive Saw us free in our skins and said we were beneath I guess their gods must be crazy Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh Hey ya hey ya hey ya eh Hey ya eh hey ya eh The Fianna showed me how to keep it Cumhaill The Hound of Chulainn really taught me how to stage a Cú So don't you ever get too comfortable If you want a resolution then you're gonna have to rock the boat I claim my name, finesse the feng shui, rise like soufflé, I toss the bouquet I came off Broadway, to rep narolane I always peep game, but no I'm not playing If I leave, then I'm taking all my relics with me Every museum, every gallery, my birthright is coming with me So you can't tell me what I'm destined to be Every curse formed against my family will be ending with me Mansa Musa, black medusa French guillotine with the execution Bueno bwanji, awe mwandi Every day we breathe is a revolution
