African God

Take steps 1 and 2
I stayed strong and grew
I'm so sick
Music's so cold my fans got the flu
Take steps 3 and 4
Be someone they adore
I went aboard
And I got the sauce
Now I'm the one they applaud (Cuz I'm theeee...)

African God Yeah the African God
Damn Can't help but nod
Yeah can't help but Nod
Simply the African God
Yeah the African God
Yeah can't help but Nod
Damn can't help but Nod

(Yeah Yeah Yeah)
Right from the start
I Came from the womb
Born in Lagos
But dad's from ogun
Need a new place
Abuja coming soon
How old were you
Yeah I was just 2
New city
So you know I had to change school
Little smart kid
Know I used all the tools
That made me Excel
Yeah They knew I was good
In my class
On top
Is where I always stood
Dad in the military
Mom was a cook
Siblings far away
My mind never shook
As a kid tryna read me
Like a book
Never understood
My mind
But I tried to allude
When I hit the teens
I knew I was right
Started to Freestyle
Started to fight
Went to a boarding house
Got a rap book
Where I write
On a white and a black sheet
Stopped paying attention
Looking like a black sheep
Then I could flow
On a mother fucking bad beat
Luwa Xl bringing all
That damn heat
Wanna battle me
Put you ass in a seat
Not taking L's
No room for defeat
Except it's you
Then Time to retreat
Everybody taking about
Luwa's concrete
Cuz I'm a mother fucking beast
What I eat
MC'S (Ok)

Take steps 1 and 2
I stayed strong and grew
I'm so sick
Music's so cold my fans got the flu
Take steps 3 and 4
Be someone they adore
I went aboard
And I got the sauce
Now I'm the one they applaud (Cuz I'm theeee...)

African God Yeah the African God
Damn Can't help but nod
Yeah can't help but Nod
Simply the African God
Yeah the African God
Yeah can't help but Nod
Damn can't help but Nod

(Yeah Yeah Yeah)

My music's so sweet just
A souffle
Damn Lil frizzy
Was a dope name
End of cold reign
I had to detain
Cuz Luwa Xl just sounds more insane
End of the Nigerian days
Nigga just finished up the 10th grade
All I could do was hope and pray
Until dad said
Get your ass on the plane
Damn damn damn
Yeah Yeah Get your ass on The plane Nigga
Yeah Yeah Get your ass on the Plane
When I landed men, I took a breath
Didn't believe but had no regrets
Different place it was too direct
Grey hound to Houston was so perfect
We Stayed with my aunt
I Had conflicts
She didn't respect my all my projects
Saw what she was doing
My dad didn't
She Became a pain
We was like good riddance
Buoyant cuz
A nigga risen
Know I never stopped spitting
Never thinking of quitting
Knew what a nigga getting
In my head forfeiting
Was a thought forbidden
Cuz I'm about succeeding
Trapped But Now got my freedom

Take steps 1 and 2
I stayed strong and grew
I'm so sick
Music's so cold my fans got the flu
Take steps 3 and 4
Be someone they adore
I went aboard
And I got the sauce
Now I'm the one they applaud (Cuz I'm theeee...)

African God Yeah the African God
Damn Can't help but nod
Yeah can't help but Nod
Simply the African God
Yeah the African God
Yeah can't help but Nod
Damn can't help but Nod

Progressing through my journey
Wasn't so damn funny
The bumps hills tests
Dumps bills flex
Ups and downs like bunnies
(Yeah Yeah)
Music's just a hobby
They said...
You're so damn cocky
They said...
We moved out the Crosbys
We left
It was so foggy
In my head
But I knew my fans
Were out there
Waiting for me and my music
To get here
I thought I freaking blew it
Don't lose it
You're getting near
I tried many other things
But look
Where all that shit fucking led
Right fucking here
Cuz I worked hard
And still am
So my voice is heard
From Snow city
To twisted mind
Passed right through me
Like I was fucking blind
Stayed on my grind
I still rhymed had no crimes
As I was told
Tryna get signed getting better with time
While you know this nigga got bold
To release periodic homies
And a fan favorite (Big shack!)
Man went cold

Then graduated
Knowing my future is so damn broad
Now here In 2020 making African God
Making African God...
Heh... Lumi!
