Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sarkodie's song "Real Nigga Shit" describe the lifestyle and mentality of a "real nigga" who is focused on making money, enjoying life, and maintaining his status. The opening lines "Edwum nu esi, now! Hey nans3i sokoo na mma p3" mean that it's time to work and make money, but it's also important to have fun and enjoy life. The rest of the song talks about various aspects of the "real nigga" lifestyle, such as having expensive cars ("Me sr3 obia nyi ni car key"), being careful with money ("Wo sika b) anu a wob3 ti asi3"), and spending time with beautiful women ("Ny3 wo ini ini na y3 di t) prepai").


The lyrics also make references to specific locations, such as Vienna, Kotoku, and Ashawo Cra Fanu 14, which are likely places where the "real nigga" has lived, worked, or partied. Additionally, the use of local dialect and slang (such as "nans3i," "api," and "b33 fa y3") gives the lyrics a sense of authenticity and helps to convey the singer's personality and background.


Overall, "Real Nigga Shit" is a celebration of the hustle and success of someone who has come up from humble beginnings to achieve wealth, fame, and respect. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of this lifestyle, with its mix of hard work, material excess, and social connections.

lyrics made simple in english
nowadays women love riches and fame
if you're not rich you will suffer
so try hard and work hard
when you start getting rich you will understand
everyone gets your car keys Im not talking about your kitchen cabinet key
if you dnt have money you'll eat dead cow or go for cheap prostitutes at Vienna
when yourr swag is on point make sure you have some money in your pocket
your swag won't buy prepaid ( phone recharge)
let the girl know you are the man
if you poor stay put with ur wife cos your side chick will demand
every Ghanaian girl got a price. your money determines the kind of girl
if you ride X6 you'll get nice girls
if you ride Maserati you will b surprise
if its corolla x just manage ur local girl.
if you dnt have a car forget it.
they want chandelier not latern
you dnt have money but you want a high class girl unless you use a foul means. whatever your money gets you is your last chance even if she is a prostitute.
chorus
cos they are on some
Rich nigga shit
will update the second verse later

@lesliefiadoyor4823

in essence, he's advising the male youth to work hard and stay focused instead spending lavishly on women because these women are in for money and nothing else....in short, the women are in for wealthy men only...hope it helps...
