Ghetto Dream
Da Grin Lyrics
Yeah,
Lemme tell you something about ma life real quick.
TTTTTT TFrizzile On The Mix!:
Sometimes when I sleep and dreaming men, I Just dont wanna wake up/
I realize dat Im married to the game, and me and ma bItch will neva break up/
I put it down for the Ghetto/ Been down way from the get-go/
(Huh, Yeah) And I wonder, Even In Ma Heart/And I wonderrr
Aimoye igba ti mo dide ti mo ti subu/
Aimoye eebu tan ti pe mi loloriibu/
Aimoye clubbin' ti mi i le afford one red bull/
Aimoye aje, aimoye oso, aimoye many times ti mo n oplay free show/
Aimoye igba tawon eyan ti ni kin n lo give up/
Wo ni mo local, p'ona mi o ki n se Hip-Hop/
But mo wa determined, mo de wa focused/
T'ori e l'oruko mi se n spread bi Staphyllococus/
N aimoye yawa, n aimoye insult/
Aimoye je concorsion without no salt/
Aimoye ala ti mo la pe mo di Celebrity/
Ti n ba ji, ma a tun bere hustle loju titi/
It's a pity, ijo wo ni mo fe ra Infinity?/Or Armada ti ma ni ke wa wo ara ti mo n da?:
Mo n dream lati fi aja se resident/
Mo n dream lati di Nigerian President/(All hail the King!)
Owo t'awon President n je lon encourage mi/
Eepe t'awon eyan n se fun won lo n discourage mi/
Mo ni dream lati di Pastor or woli/
But everytime ni mo n mu sepe mo de'n fa kpoli/
Mo ni dream lati believe bi Pasto Chris
But mo wa carried away pelu Efizi Ludacris/
Mo'n dream lati mo'we bi Wole Soyinka/
Bo problem ti mo ni, awon Sissy yi mi ka/
Mo ni dream lti lo school ki n di Professor/
Owo lo da mi duro bi'i bus t'awon ero fe'so/
Mo ni dream lati play ball bi'i Kaka/
Bo'ya to'o ba d'ola, won le sign me si Barca/
But everytime ti'n ba de training, wa'a ni won a da'wo kaka/
But oro mi nigbayen, apo mi i o ti i saka/:
Yes Lord! Dont let me cry, Dont let me die(Please dont let me die)
I Pray for the Ghetto
Yeah, give them a future...
I got yo' back, So greatful.
Yeah.You got this men.
Look up to the sky, its a bright day...: Till fade.

This is why Dagrin is so different. 10 years after, this song is still banging. Classic tune. π
Prime Official
This guy made local rap sound so classic and foreign.
Sonny Yombo
Dagrin, I probably the best rapper I have ever listened to. His use and choice of words in his lyrical content makes him a genius. RIP
