LYRICS KooKusi – Greetings From Abroad:
My greatest fear be say mentum mmeet hɔn expectations
“Kofi go deliver”
Hɔn nyim dɛɛ maanom abortifacient
Wɔlɛ “this chap he be greatness”
“N′adwene yɛ sharp
Otum yɛ rap
Otwa mfonyin, yɛ gye no di”
Then e dey motivate on the daily
But now it’s beginning to pierce
Hm
Na ɔyɛ me dɛɛ twitter cycle
I follow my dreams, they follow back, we′ll be our own disciples
Nti me nenam amanɔne kwan ho reyɛ me best
Kofi I’m tryna be something y’all gonna be happy about
Tryna be this, that
Tryna be all these descriptive pronouns I can′t pronounce
The things that look profound
Be up and about
Making my family proud
Agya Amo retwɛn ne pounds
The when e need, the how?
No body care
Nobody noticed, I know this
I wouldn′t be needing consoling
My skin in the game
I be living in maximum pain and it’s ludicrous
Simon of Cyrene ihn role ahdey play
Anaa dɛɛ ɔyɛ mmara me crucifix
Crosses that never add up
I dey beef and the bone of contention is humorous
Ɔbra no yɛ battle, I′m losing it
High on the lows, I’m abusing it
Hɔn bisa Nana Nyame dɛɛ
I be forbidden fruit of the uterus wey them no jeey
So many goals I for keep, e be say
Yawa for gbɛɛ me then make e be bloody
And that′s when I know that I labored in vain
And my greatest of fears be say
My greatest strength go turn my greatest curse
Ɔbɛyɛ me killer’s thread
Tie and die
Noose a neck
By and by
Lose a breath
Finna die slow
Through the vent
Let my life go
Make dey come ask what I died for
Imma run it back
My greatest fear be say
My greatest strength go turn my greatest curse
E go be my killer′s thread
Tie and die
Noose and hook a neck
Dead
Mebɔ nsuo a na mahwɛ ewia
All the whole time dwene krokyia no
Uh
Agya mɛfa no saa na mawɔ so daa
Neɛ ɔbɔɔ nsuo ara
Na ɔbɔɔ ewia
Bɔɔ ne Boasiako
Uh
Akoa missioner
Ɔkwan ne sum na saa ne fa nni kanea
Aane, na menso menni baabi kɔ
Already it’s been years I mean I been dey walk
Ɛyɛ me a
Ey
Fear none
Ensuro no, ɛnyɛ ɔnoa
Ɔno sɛ mmusuo na ɛka n(o a)
Ɔsrɛ pɛ mercy
Ne a ɔse yentumi (yɛ) hwana
Grace, ɛyɛ Almighty Father
Go ask anuanom for Canaan
Kyerɛ ɔmo sɛ wɔnyɛ no one
Life on the wop styles is it?
Aha koraa deɛ no styles mese
It’s going down south
See the thing sour
But opia wo ma wo mene
Still pon the Hov side mete
Spirit ma guide my killie
Steady pon road night inna
M′akoma hyerɛn lightning
Eyes on above, not the powers that be
Grinding steady we banging the lee
The fear is that Hova will leave me
Wagya me, mayɛ dasani
Metaki no personally
Personally He′s never left
Put me right like I never left
Got me right in the envelope
Told me the wise no be intellect
Told me nothing dey over the Hova
Wey all over dey (He) oversee
Holdi me high, kra me on the low
Ey
Follow ma no take a lead
I’m right behind, marking no yɛ close
You got a choice to believe
You got to be living it
But now you know
Neɛ wo suro ne sɛ you go agree to it
Uh
Mebɔ nsuo a na mahwɛ ewia
All the whole time dwene krokyia no

Agya mɛfa no saa na mawɔ so daa
Neɛ ɔbɔɔ nsuo ara
Na ɔbɔɔ ewia

Ɔkwan ne sum na saa ne fa nni kanea
Aane, na menso menni baabi kɔ
Already it′s been years I mean I been dey walk
Ɛyɛ me a
Ka kyerɛ Auntie Jane dɛɛ
For every night you be praying for me, Ma, you no go lack
Na kɛ kyerɛ poppie no dɛɛ
For every dime you done gave me I’ll make you a quarter back
Ɔsoundi crazy, but
Boy no yɛ wiemfoɔ ba a me wɔ preference

And I be
Doing the things that I can to reduce the attacks
I be used to the-
