Good Place to Start [Album]

What is this magic
How do I begin the story about a place that can inspire and deflate you at the same time
How do I talk about Lagos
About how it has drawn me in embraced me encouraged me and spanked me out all in the same breath
Where do I begin
What is this city
This strange eccentric humid place
What is Lagos
What is Lagos

Ori a gbe ayo fun agbe
Ori a lu ko aja afu o
Wo u wo
Ele dami mo ma gbagbe mi
O wo u wo
Ori eni la ure eni
O wo u wo

As I dey hustle everyday
Thinking of a way
Saying all my prayers
Ori mi ja funmi o
E da mi shanu mi

As I dey hustle everyday
Thinking of a way
Saying all my prayers
Ori mi shanu mi
E da mi shanu mi

E dami shanu mi o

When is a good place to start yeah
I’ve been waiting for today
Waiting for the time I’ll say my mind
I’ll rap about what happens in my life
Put everything on the line
Like I’m waiting for all my clothes to dry
I hope I’m not believing in a lie
Taking everybody with me
I don’t want to leave any man behind
Reality is really not the same
Cos my circles grow smaller
Some people will not carry all their weight
And some people have a different fate
So I tell my crew we move
They follow me like a visionary
I’ve never mat them stationary
The game never break my heart e mi legendary
So keep your cup for food I don’t want your Ben and Jerry
And I’m lucky I’m a rapper the job market is not helping many
The runs market is accepting any
And we the youths are desperate
Ashawo making more than a banker
They buy off from black market hacker
I’ll probably do the same
It’s easier to judge from the outside
I remember when I said I’ll never do some things I can’t even admit on this intro
Cos it’s too much info
I’m only confessing to heaven’s oloun

Eh eh ahh ahh
Cos it’s a good place to start Oloun
Ori mi ja funmi oo
E dami shanu mi o
cos It’s a good place to start

As I dey hustle everyday
Thinking of a way
Saying all my prayers
Ori mi shanu mi o
E da mi shanu mi o

Anywhere there is a problem
