Ife Love

I always thought I'd never get intoxicated, But when I met you, things got complicated. African queen you took away my every breath, Caught me in the web of your romantic net; "Awelewa" melanin slim and sexy, Because of you I shunned all of them including Lexi For I'm drunk having drank from your pot of wine, Having fed fat with love like an overfed swine; I never knew "Ife" could be this mysterious For I set my eyes on you and got delirious. "She must be a goddess of a kind", I thought Like "Yeye Oshun" goddess with the purest clothe; Now I'm yours and you're mine my chewing gum, Cos when we're together our hearts beat like a talking drum. Let's safari together, You and I in the plains of Serengeti, And voyage on the beaches of "O ba je ti" ; I always believed I couldn't get intoxicated, But now I'm your captive cos things got complicated. #Niggyraslife #AfricanChild #AfricaToTheWorld!
