Gbo ori re so ke... ko wo orun

Confused
Looking for someone to tell her what to do
I see her looking for clues
Trapped in time that lies
About her ancestry
Spells flowin naturally
Society
Can't handle it
Ooo
Eating her fruits, listening to Badu
Ankara around her waist
Head wrapped to seal her truth
Magik in her step, wilding her roots
No one wants to walk in her shoes
Could you? (could you? Could you? could you?)
Alagbara obinrin ti o gbọ, mo fẹ sọ nkan kan fun ọ

Gbo ori re so ke... ko wo orun
Gbo ori re so ke... ko wo orun
One day, we will all die
So here's some cake for more life
You can't preach water
And drink Western lies
Expect another to speak for your bloodline (That's not mine)
But anyway I focus on the (trees)
Break bread with the (g's)
My family always eat with me
Je ne peux pas le faire si je m'assois
(I can't get it, if i am sitting down)
So I go get it, go get it, go get it
And come back for more
See the world is your core
So I go get it, go get it, go get it
And come back with rewards
Alagbara obinrin ti o gbọ, mo fẹ sọ nkan kan fun ọ
Alagbara obinrin ti o gbọ, mo fẹ sọ nkan kan fun ọ
Gbo ori re so ke... ko wo orun
Gbo ori re so ke... ko wo orun
Alagbara obinrin ti o gbọ, mo fẹ sọ nkan kan fun ọ
Alagbara obinrin ti o gbọ, mo fẹ sọ nkan kan fun ọ
Gbo ori re so ke... ko wo orun
Gbo ori re so ke... ko wo orun
