Lyrics 1999 - Rybeena

(Once upon a time, a king was born in 1999)
(It's all man's burden, as I mo-)
1999, (wagwan)

1999, mama put a king in action
Goddamn, mummy, this your kid is so handsome
First born, ogo t'ọmọ gbè wá'yè má tension
Gradually I'm going, Adewale is now a bad boy
Papa always grinding, see the struggle for hin face (for hin face)
Mama still dey strive, dey for ghetto still dey pray (ghetto still dey pray)
And I run comot from lungu ni yárá kàn t'ángbè
Iṣhẹẹ lo s'ọmọ nu, ájo o dẹ lè dábi ilè

Some of us are lost ni'gbati ao b'ọla nlè (b'ọla nlè)
Many dey for game, ao mọ'gba t'owo má dè (t'owo má dè)
'Cause my guys smoking colos, wọn l'áyè l'ofi ṣhèè
RIP to Para, á má pádè l'ẹsẹ J

'Cause I cry oh-oh, 'cause blood no be zobo
My scars no be logo, you fit know, make you don't know
O d'árinọko, o yè Ọlọhun ogo
T'oba jẹ pè o gbọ mi, oobá yin Bami l'ogo
'Cause I cry oh-oh, 'cause blood no be zobo
My scars no be logo, you fit know, make you don't know
O d'árinọko, o yè Ọlọhun ogo
T'oba jẹ pè o gbọ mi, oobá yin Bami l'ogo

Lai-lahaillallah, Lahaillallah
Lai-lahaillallah, Lahaillallah
Lai-lahaillallah, Lahaillallah
Lai-lahaillallah, Lahaillallah

Brother, ṣhèè you don see pastor wey dey feel can lead the choir, my deaconess
Now, he tell me say "nobody perfect", idi buruku yẹn l'ofi jimi lẹ
Holiness, ọmọ t'ọni kẹ ṣhèè irapada fun l'owa tunyin lẹ, moni "tiyin yẹ"
Ṣh'ẹyin tẹ ṣhèè iwásu fun mi, sh'oyẹ k'omá tun ri bẹ?

Lai-lahaillallah, májẹ r'álátáko
Ogun akoba, k'omá dá, adura l'ongbá
Lai-lahaillallah, Lahaillallah
Lai-lahaillallah, Laha-ha

'Cause I cry oh-oh, 'cause blood no be zobo
My scars no be logo, you fit know, make you don't know
O d'árinọko, o yè Ọlọhun ogo
T'oba jẹ pè o gbọ mi, oobá yin Bami l'ogo
'Cause I cry oh-oh, 'cause blood no be zobo
My scars no be logo, you fit know, make you don't know
O d'árinọko, o yè Ọlọhun ogo
T'oba jẹ pè o gbọ mi, oobá yin Bami l'ogo

Lai-lahaillallah, Lahaillallah
