Signs
Mavali Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lights up in the air
When I pull up in the building you know
I'm looking fresh as fvck
Can't tell if na shayo or the feeling from the cannabinoid
But I guess that's my call

Won le won le ba
Won wa won le ri
Bad boy I don go
E be like magic
My doingz legit
I know they can see
I drop and I drip
No come dey fumble
Won le won le ba
Won wa won le ri
Bad boy I don go
E be like magic
My doingz legit
I know they can see
I drop and I drip
I roll in convoy

Ewure 'n gbo kai
Adiye 'n gbo su
Aja 'n gbo wagba wagba
Sheybi eyin gbon ju
Ewure 'n gbo kai
Adiye 'n gbo su (hoo hoo)
I only hear when you speak raba
I talk in bundles

I don dey tell them since nineteen-gborodo
They think say I go quit
I can't get enough
Abibinibi le yi I don't even force
So pay me immediately make my money long
Millions billions ni mo wa na
Ashiri na ko ni tu lola la-ullah
Militan Taliban I dey rough am
Ko wo pe ko wo po ni mo n baka

Ewure 'n gbo kai
Adiye 'n gbo su
Aja 'n gbo wagba wagba
Sheybi eyin gbon ju
Ewure 'n gbon kai
Adiye 'n gbo su (hoo hoo)
I only hear when you speak raba
I talk in bundles

Won le won le ba
Won wa won le ri
Bad boy I don go
E be like magic
My doingz legit
I know they can see
I drop and I drip
No come dey fumble
Won le won le ba
Won wa won le ri
Bad boy I don go
E be like magic
My doingz legit
I know they can see




I drop and I drip
I roll in convoy
