a bull's tale

jidenna

jidenna

how many times did i call you?

you are a stubborn bull

just like your father

i don't understand you

o

your auntie and i warned you not to come during election season

but you would not listen

where is my

my palm wine?

you know i like to drink palm wine. yes. so

all i'm saying is jidenna

look: the cow that is in the hurry to go to america will come back here as corned beef

do you understand?

shine your eye

although we are brothers

your uncle

you know magnus

will be the one to make the first move on your life

as for the security guards

they were your father's best men

they are now yours

keep them close to you at all times

but remember: when you are in the village

you are with your family

but your family may not be with you

savage are the man and his band of thieves

so heavy is the head of he that wears the ring

but a lion don't ever lose sleep when it come to sheep

and just like wolves on the prowl to eat

they act in wool but they speak in peace

but i can't hide nor run from the ones who'll come for me

tell 'em come for me

bald head

red kufi

and shades

lookin' like i got oil money and slaves

i'm on the way to put my poppa in his grave

in a disguise

riding in a motorcade

and i've come to bury him in the jungle

it's where we were from so a nigga stayed humble

now don't fumble

don't stumble

don't trip

kidnappers could snatch and ambush your kids

i'm on the low i ain't tryna be a martyr

it don't help i stand out like a foreigner

nah i ain't a balla

but armed robbers think i'm made of top dollars

i made a promise

when i was six and guerillas ran up on us

taking my sis

beating the shit out of my mama

shot me in the foot put a bullet through my armor

i'm a kill 'em when i see 'em again

so the prince got knights in all black hanging out the side doors

aks on they back shining like swords

pops would say once you're bitten by a snake
