Rob Nuca - Ilé lyrics

[Verse 1: Ade Bantu] As I trek into the twilight of uncertainty Exiting to become a celebrity with some dignity Wanting to recover from self-pity injuries Where fakers make enquiries dissecting personalities I stare at a stranger claiming to be me As the wealth of experience embedded in time Leave me hunting for a dope rhyme In half time to come shine and get mine fine The centre looking for the middle Shadows dancing to the fiddle God running from the people Good turned into the cripple Exile packaged with the blues While I await the dawn to return to my roots I reminisce of all the wasted time and our youths [Chorus] Ilé Ono jin o it's a long long way from Ilé Ono jin o it's a long long way from Ile [Verse 2: Ade Bantu] Mother I ask will you still open your arms to the prodigal son The long gone lost one hasn't damage been done? sh** I'm feening for the sun The smell from your pots the red of your earth The smile of our gods your wisdom in words It's the way you savour life to the fullest Your hospitality got me running for your breast No contest yo Africa you're forever the best! Say no matter what they say and no matter what they do I will keep on loving you sticking tight like glue You're my one and only beau my harbour and my anchor Whenever I'm depressed sad and blue [Chorus] Ilé Ono jin o it's a long long way from Ilé Ono jin o it's a long long way from Ile Gotta move on gotta move on – ilé Ilé Ono jin o it's a long long way from ilé Ilé Ono jin o it's a long long way from ilé
