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

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

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

5foot3 with a purpose

And I be

Doing the things that I can to reduce the attacks

I be used to the-

Nana Kofi

Yes sir I′m-

Are you okay?

Yes sir I′m sorry about that

Uuhh

Good… morning ladies and gentlemen
