Adara

Ah!
This is no a love song
But it's straight from my heart

I wanna talk about the stress wanna get it off my chest
Take my time and re-invest
Asking is it worth it? All the sleepless nights
The fights and the crisis, the critics biting
Mama told me there'd be days like this
Put your pen to paper never use your fist
Imagine how I came through my fears rhyming
Started my career, blew it up with the trybesmen
A lot of people had their own opinions
Took it in my stride and stuck to my onions
They think they know who she would be, should be
Numbed by the pressure see I really wanna be me
Inspiration gone, direction gone
Packing my bags I must be must be done
But my heart keeps drawing me back
You can do it baby, one more track

Hey (hey)
Keep your head up don't you cry (cry)
You can make it if you try
Sa ra giri omo ekun
Adara, adara

Hey (hey)
Keep your head up don't you cry
You can make it if you try
Sa ra gi ri omo ekun
Adara
Adara

Wey the hits? wey the album?
Have to measure up to the standards of the stardom
Can't explain three years running and only one single
Confessing to the audience only one video?
But you hear me though, E mi ni mo wa ise
Won de make sure pe, e mi ni mo ri ise
MC's coming out gotta top the charts
I'm losing it losing it, pulling all the stops
Maybe a party song, no thats regular
Do a whole track and spit it vernacular
I'm going crazy right now so I put my pen down
Don't be mad if you see me walking around with a frown
I'm just tired of this, performing at shows and don't get paid
Gotta make friends, so dont dare say it
Working for the money though, I can't get it
Trying to convince myself, gotta believe it

Hey (hey)
Keep your head up don't you cry (cry)
You can make it if you try
Sa ra giri omo ekun
Adara, adara

Hey (hey)
Keep your head up don't you cry
You can make it if you try
Sa ra gi ri omo ekun
Adara
Adara

Yo! Yo! See!
I'm speaking out for a lot of us women
When the skills don't bring the ends then we give in
Tryna look back at mistakes that we made
Deep down you possess the tricks of the trade
They can't tell us that we can't be the best
Put the work in it let God do the rest
It's in our own minds that we stay limited
See it through the eyes of the child that's still innocent

Why tell me why
I just can't seem to decide
Every time I walk away something's killing me inside
I wanna go, but I can't let go
How do I get through this, I don't know

Hey (hey)
Keep your head up don't you cry (cry)
You can make it if you try
Sa ra giri omo ekun
Adara, adara

Hey (hey)
Keep your head up don't you cry
You can make it if you try
Sa ra gi ri omo ekun
Adara, adara
