Fruit of the Womb

I made a little mistake

Have I taken on more than I weigh?

But you gave and you gave and you gave me the world

So I'll keep on, on my way

And I'll try, I'll try, I'll try

My mummy dey grow

But I still no blow enough to put her in her home

I still no fit change the car she get from years ago

I still no fit take over all of her rent mpo

She still the work and oh

Naturally

She still be proud of me

She asks for money sometimes but

Her number one request still be grand kiddies

Meanwhile I dey grind in these

Streets

Struggling to pay my masters fees

My mummy dey grow

Ɔyi ne duku pɛ plenty grey dey show

She dey stress climb stairs cos her knees dey go

BP dey rise and I have a need to show

Fruits of the seeds she sow

Na ne plan ne sɛ ɔrehwɛ ne ba sukuu

Na daakye bi ne ba nso abɛ hwɛ no bi

Ɛnso Cue no fit find his feet

Brother and a wife to feed

Wondering if this rich dad thing sef sometimes man fit be

My mummy dey grow

Ɛnso still a, me nyɛɛ hwee nmaa no killa

I mean by now ɛwɔ sɛ nka m'ama no villa

And like a 100 visa

Maids ne gardeners, paying for her drivers

Last time I passed by the house where

I said

I was gonna buy her, when I grow up

Yeah I think the owner

Turned it into some apartments

And I still cant afford mummy a flat there

Funny I was on my way to carry mattress

From mummy ein house when

I by chance met

My homie from back then

Ɔse Cue my mummy she go

Maame yi brɛ a w'abrɛ me ho yi

M'antumi anma no bed sheet mpo

Anma no fridge mpo

She used to cry when she threw food away

And say, "I wish your grandmother was still here today"

And here I dey eating through my tears

Nka Leti ntwɛn ma kofi nhitte ansa eh
