Kwame Aboagye's Blog: LYRICS: Manifest – Someway Bi (Prod. Yung Fly) [Radio Edit]

[Intro: M.anifest]

Driving in a storm, how I fit see ahead

Weather forecast, a bit nippy I heard

Beggars can't choose, but be picky instead

9 to 5 blues, kick me I’m dead

[Verse 1: M.anifest]

Cross my T's and dot my I's

Stress wey e dey my chest I ostracize

Do atwe atwe burn rubber till you smell the tyres

Me and adwen b ayɛ aka, I’m cutting ties

My Jalabia tailor made or customized

My English straight pidgin all bastardized

What I for do? Ignore all the bastard guys

I work they snore, I pass those guys

Thank God it's Friday, Of course! My mind dey

Rise and shine your eye, hustler’s way

All week long we hustle and slave

Trapped in enclaves for wages and pay

Koko king in the morning, ensure that vim dey

Weekend so strong helps to shun the weak days

Mommy say; “son, well God be praised,”

Well these days money be why we dey, someway

I bathe in faith, no bathing apes, a basic case

Of faith in something great, but still

From 6 to 6, with stones and bricks

I’m building a future I hope I live to see and shit

[Hook: M.anifest]

Up early no sleep, e be someway bi

Boys abrɛ all week e be someway bi

Price of living no be cheap, e be someway bi

But thank god it's Friday, me bɛ gye me ni

Dum sɔ dum sɔ, e be someway bi

Ewia bɔ nsuo tɔ, e be someway bi

My woman bore, wa doggi me, e be someway bi

But thank God it's Friday, me bɛ gye me ni

[Verse 2: M.anifest]

My eye get, me ni agyi

During the week I’m busy, me nni adaagye

But I still put in work sake of daakye

I’m even up before the sun says maakye

So it's 5 on Friday ɛneɛ akye

Me kɔ verbs akɔ akotwa me nan ase

Health is wealth, I give thanks, medaase

Might use my widow's mite to buy asase

Waa wo nim sɛ

Hustle no dey nap hustle no dey sleep

Hustle no dey slack e mek wild on the streets

Hustle no dey vex or stress about beef

R.I.P laziness lay a wreath

Dance with the struggle got a million needs

We've been up in here long like Brazilian weaves

Wanna weekdays filled with our brilliant deeds

Weekends we can enjoy what resilience breeds

I bathe in faith not based with snakes

A basic case of me and fake no dey relate

From 6 to 6, with stones and bricks

Build a future, risque, Sharon Stone in flicks

[Hook: M.anifest]

[Bridge: M.anifest]

Bɔga ma yɛ merɛ

Girls abrɛ e no be boys pɛ

Thank God it’s Friday

Bɔga ma yɛ merɛ

Girls abrɛ e no be boys pɛ

Thank God it’s Fiada

[Post Bridge: M.anifest]

Driving in a storm I can't see shit

All week long sink or swim that's it

Staring at the clock does it move does it tick?

Time moves slowest when you need it to be quick

Driving in a storm how I fit see ahead

Weather forecast a bit nippy I heard

Beggars can't choose but be picky instead

9 to 5 blues kick me I’m dead

[Hook: M.anifest]
