Mojeed - 4. B.O.A.T.S [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro: Fela Speaking]
They called our own languages vernacular
So English was the real language we had to speak in school
So everything was English
With what we were taught in school
Nobody was thinking of whether to be African or not
We just accepted that we were English
And everybody that went to England for studies was a master you know
Everybody wants to go to England and come back home to be master you know

[Verse 1]
Wan kpo to, kan lo bo si wa, AR badder than dem
Excuse my fresh Margiela's yankee boy swagger than dem dey like
But who be this westernized african guy i'm on fire than dem
If being broke is a joke, no family guy, i'll quagmire than them e wo
Isale ti su mi man aye n be l' oke, I no fit wait make money land like aeroplane
I swear na every other weekend out in St. Tropez, for all the time we never had it baba dem go pay
L'aye ti a wa yi a ma pasu
To r'aye ti a wa yi a ti laju
Mo ri wan ni nu parlor bo yen ka two hundred thou cash no be cashew


[Chorus]
Kawosoke
Ati de wan ma kawo sori
If e no pain then e no go pay
And thats based on a true story

[Verse 2]
20/20 vision 20 omoge's to bad, Excuse how i talk quite vernacular you dey mad?
Na uku prick end shakara kilo faaaaaaaaa, before you count to 3, i'll be on to the next like 4,5
Back when i met a pretty cougar by Kuramo i was a VG
Ori lo yomi no condom the rest is PG, crashed that 190 in lekki before my permit came
I swear it felt like 190 up on that 3rd mainland
I paid for undergrad never had a scholarship, i repeat that i never had a scholarship
Now them seats all white kings college shit, park and amuse mehn I'm on my apapa shit
I'm going hard, till i'm so in charge, best revenge is letting enemies see you going far
Koleye, no lele, my own kele go tick as okele, I swear to God
L'aye ti a wa yi a ma pasu
To r'aye ti a wa yi a ti laju
Mo ri wan ni nu parlor bo yen ka two hundred thou cash no be cashew

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Shama rora, shama shora, shama je wo, shama san ra
Shama she ti e, shama shoga o, Mr Westernized West African boy
Kawosoke
