Suru lyrics
[Intro: Asake]
Wa, wa
Surulere, wa
[Chorus: Asake]
My mama tell me say surulere (Surulere gan ni)
To ba focus o ma gb’ope (O ma kere gan ni)
Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye (Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye)
Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye (Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye)
Ko s’eni to ye rara, Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye
[Verse 1: Stormzy]
Yeah
Tears might fall from my eyes only this time
Can hear my mums crying and my sis crying
‘Cause I just won a MOBO for the 6th time
I let my soul glow and my wrist shine
Remember back in 2013 you were giving me an earful
Now it’s lit when I drop into the airport
I took a leap of faith and it scared you
We go mërk and I let you pick a vehicle
Never had food but you catered
Came at a cost but you paid it
Don’t know how we did but we made it
Highly blessed and favoured
Now my Tom Ford’s all tailored
God’s children can never be failures
Mysterious ways that he works in, but he's still working, certain
[Chorus: Asake]
My mama tell me say surulere (Surulere gan ni)
To ba focus o ma gb’ope (O ma kere gan ni)
Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye (Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye)
Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye (Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye)
Ko s’eni to ye rara, Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye
[Verse 2: Asake]
Mo n gbadura
Lojo'jumo mo fi n pe ya Allahu
Owo yẹn wole, it's allowed
Ọkan mi balẹ emi o fẹ, emi o fẹ o
Yah Baba
Iwọ lo le gba mi Baba
Mo fẹ trabaye wọ kaba
Ọlọda ma jẹ kin kalas, ki n kalas
Forget ẹ ọmọ gbagbe yẹn
More blessings incoming, I can tell
Iwọ t'on r'ọkan, sọpe ti ẹ
Gba ko jẹ, o ya ka ko jẹ
Mama say ma lọ ma gara ju
Kupe kupe ma lọ ma ṣe aṣeju
Lati SS2, mo ti n kọrin mi o dẹ sun
Oluwa sọ mi o dẹ silekun, ẹ fi lọ fun
[Chorus: Asake]
My mama tell me say surulere (Surulere gan ni)
To ba focus o ma gb’ope (O ma kere gan ni)
Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye (Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye)
Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye (Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye)
Ko s’eni to ye rara, Isé Oluwa ko s’eni to ye
[Outro: Stormzy]
Tears won't fall from my eyes but my chest hurts
I'd cry to the Lord can it get worse
I was kinda cool where I was 'cause it's less work
You gotta dream better dive in it head first
This wasn't a dream it was more like a plan I believed in
My detour had Abigail seething
Rachael telling her to leave him
I put her through all five stages of grieving
Denying my mindset, anger was direct, you bargained with me but I had to decline it
Sad for a while, never smiled but you left it
I said mum now you got accept it
One day, imma be a star, I swear
One day, imma go far, I swear
God has a plan, so I have no fear, no fear
