NWANNE

[Intro]

Knucks, nwanne

Legodu ka isi a muke

Tai! O dilo mma, alobam

Buliem akpa gi, buliem akpa gi

Kneel godu down

Welcome home, nnoo o

[Chorus]

Yo, it ain't no growth when the family beefs (Nwanne)

So good and well being stubborn, but not when the kids are the casualties (Yeah)

Nwannem o, please

Can't build generation wealth if I just generate for myself, that's greed (That's greed)

Can't break generational curses if I don't wake up and stand for the P's

[Verse 1]

We all went to my cousin's for Christmas and my other one every New Yеars Eve (New Years Evе)

And they would come out for house on Easter, "Yes, I'm fine, thank you, Auntie"

I never had older brothers or nothing, sis' was fun, but I looked up to my cousins

But saw less of them when I got older, was upset, yeah, but I weren't judgin' (Judgin')

We didn't know as kids that the driftin' come from problems our dads had as brothers

The typical Nigerian dramas, you know, inheritances among others

I know it must've hit deep for my dad, but as a man, had to act like he weren't bothered

Every step sayin', "Think of the children," no wonder why this Easter weren't in Kilburn

[Chorus]

Guess it ain't no growth when the family beefs (Nwanne)

So good and well being stubborn, but not when the kids are the casualties (Yeah)

Nwannem o, please

Can't build generation wealth if I just generate for myself, that's greed (That's greed)

Can't break generational curses if I don't wake up and stand for the—yo

[Verse 2]

No one can't mess with my family, I'll buss gun and tear flesh for my family

Break my cheque down for the rest of my family

And say a laidback, "No stress," when they thank me (When they thank me)

If there's a word to describe Nigerian family dynamics, it's tragic (It's tragic)

I got too many friends that war with members on the whole other side of the planet (That's mad)

And what's mad is the country's famished and powers that be at best are bein' evil

I'm tryna see about investing in recourse, I just want the best for my people (It's true)

How can we pledge an allegiance when they thieving us like we couldn't see?

They said they want the people's obedience but the people wanted Peter Obi (Obedience)

[Chorus]

It ain't no growth when the family beefs (Nwanne)

So good and well being stubborn, but not when the kids are the casualties

Nwannem o, please (Please)

Can't build generation wealth if I just generate for myself, that's greed (That's greed)

Can't break generational curses if I don't wake up and stand for the P's (P's, yeah)

[Outro]

Nwanne, nwanne (Yeah), nwannem o (Nwannem)

Nwanne, nwanne (Yeah), nwanne (Oh, yeah)

Nwanne, nwanne (Nwanne), nwannem o (Nwannem)

Nwanne, nwanne (Yeah, nwanne), nwanne
