The lyrics open with Sade’s haunting question

“Is it a crime that I still want you, and I want you to want me too?”

Rema responds with verses in Pidgin and Yoruba, expressing vulnerability and desire:

“Baby súnmọ́ mí, you know say you match my steeze… I dey available, baby, anytime you need me.”

The production, handled by P.Priime, complements the emotional depth of the lyrics, creating a track that resonates with listeners

[Intro: Sade Adu]

Is it a crime?

Is it a crime

That I still want you

And I want you to want me too?

[Chorus: Rema]

Baby (Rema), baby sun mọ́ mí

You know say you match my steeze

You know I'm a G

Shawty, I'ma always keep it real

I no dey for too much whining, dey for too much whining

As e dey be (Ooh)

As the shayo dey enter, oya, make we kolobi

Oya, show yourself, do over-sabi

Love is in the air, baby, breathe in

[Verse 1: Rema]

I dey available

Baby, anytime you need me, I dey available

Compatible, two of us dey compatible

Girl, I be bad boy, forget say I dey mellow

Ah, baby, I dey fold, baby, take it slow

Baby, go down low, nobody gats to know

Oya, I know I play around, but me no fit to let you go

Ooh

[Chorus: Rema & Sade Adu]

(Is it a crime?) Baby, baby sun mọ́ mí

You know say you match my steeze

You know I'm a G

Shawty, I'ma always keep it real

I no dey for too much whining, dey for too much whining (That I still want you?)

As e dey be (Ooh)

As the shayo dey enter, oya, make we kolobi

Oya, show yourself, do over-sabi (Ooh)

Love is in the air, baby, breathe in

[Verse 2: Rema]

The way you move this your body na weapon, ah-ahn

Catch me off guard, me I hands up kparam

Beautiful with personality, jara

Make I enter your life, make everything dey balanced, huh

As I get opportunity, why I no go mount am?

IG algorithm no fit comot my hand for your matter

I dey see girls wey bad, but you badder

[Verse 3: Rema]

Omoge, your waist put me for bail up, oshe bebe nlo

Ajé, this your demeanor, baby, na major

Your case dey above the law (Above the law)

After you, na you, before nko?

Oh, baby, show off, get other gyals jealous

Buy you a Birkin matching my AP color

Treat you like omo-mo

Pampering on a hunnid

Baby, you the one for me, ooh

[Chorus: Rema & Sade Adu]

(Is it a crime?) Baby, baby sun mọ́ mí

You know say you match my steeze

You know I'm a G

Shawty, I'ma always keep it real

I no dey for too much whining, dey for too much whining (That I still want you?)

As e dey be (Ooh)

As the shayo dey enter, oya, make we kolobi

Oya, show yourself, do over-sabi

Love is in the air, baby, breathe in
