Stay Up

We stay up cos they'll celebrate our downfall

Lean back we make it rain its a downpour

Boys kasa but we know ibi clown talk

Mean mugging she said you should frown more

I said Mean mugging you can tell we don't play fair

We going up up up and we'll stay there

These niggaz are my kids in a daycare

1999 we walk from Tema to tradefair

Its true things fall apart Chinua Achebe

This raps from my heart to your titties

The currency be love no be Cedis

National treasure I'm know from city to city

From Tema to Tamale shouts my baby Phebe

I used to take shots na mi twa bi

I quit the weed but my boys still smoke Phillies and bidis

We used to cause trouble act silly

From Tema to New York to Philly

We stay up cos they'll celebrate our downfall

Lean back we make it rain its a downpour

Boys kasa but we know ibi clown talk

Mean mugging she said you should frown more

I said Mean mugging you can tell we don't play fair

We going up up up and we'll stay there

These niggaz are my kids in a daycare

1999 we walk from Tema to tradefair

My question is why buy data to depress yourself

A man works really hard at the cost of his health

Amassing suffering disguised as wealth

He asked do you know who I am but that's a cry for help

Where I'm from they weaponize poverty so we searched cheddar

My girl Elfreda wrote me a love letter

I thought money was everything I was a go getter

But my desires slowly diminish and now I know better

We stay up cos they'll celebrate if we fall down

This hard disc is all sound

This is the king with a raw crown

We used to act reckless you can ask town

Talk shit this wrist is jaw bound

We stay up cos they'll celebrate our downfall

Lean back we make it rain its a downpour

Boys kasa but we know ibi clown talk

Mean mugging she said you should frown more

I said Mean mugging you can tell we don't play fair

We going up up up and we'll stay there

These niggaz are my kids in a daycare

1999 we walk from Tema to tradefair
