Testo di 'Ebute Metta' di Banky W.

Laser sharp hair line shaped by Dominicans
Mr. Capable is back with his pad and his pen again
Catch me in the Bronx politicking with mami's
Blowing up like I'm more juiced up than Rocky
Mad cuz ur girl fell in love with a black man
And yes I'm so African, tell by my accent?
And yes I'm Nigerian damn right I am packing
And yes I'm the future the rest of you are past tense

Verse 1
I rep Naija
Whether I live near or far
I can be out in Yankee
Or even posted up in Jand
See u gotta know who u are
Even when you hustle hard
Just follow your dreams
And you can be a superstar, because

Pre Chorus
U can cross rivers in Calabar
U can so rock out in Abuja
Riding Okadas in Benin
Doesn't matter we gonn make it out to the end
Whether ur up north in Kaduna
Or getting ur hustle on in Anambra
Riding through traffic in Lagos

U can be from Ebute metta, metta, metta, Ey Ey Ey
From Ebute metta, metta, metta Ey Ey Ey
From Ebute metta, metta, metta Ey Ey Ey
From Ebute metta, metta, metta Ey Ey Ey

Verse 2
Make u rep Naija
Whether you live near or far
You can be out in yankee
Or even posted up in Jand
Make u know who u be
Even when you're hustling
Make u follow your dreams
Even if you're from Oshodi Oshodi Oh

U can cross rivers in Calabar
U can so rock out in Abuja
Riding Okadas in Benin
Doesn't matter we gonn make it out to the end
Whether ur up north in Kaduna
Or getting ur hustle on in Anambra
Riding through traffic in Lagos

U can be from Ebute metta, metta, metta, Ey Ey Ey
From Ebute metta, metta, metta Ey Ey Ey
From Ebute metta, metta, metta Ey Ey Ey
From Ebute metta, metta, metta Ey Ey Ey

We can make it, Naija we can make it
If we only keep unity, keep unity
We can make it, Naija we can make it
If we only got unity, got unity…
