letra de 95 - meji

meji is the one

born with an umbilical cord round my neck
coulda taken my last breath before i took my first
she realized i was choking put her finger between the chord and my neck
i don’t know her name but god bless the nurse
4 years after, november 99
lost my biological dad those we’re trying times
mum was in her 20’s tryna raise two kids all by herself
make i no lie mama jay has really tried
the house we lived in the landlord chased us out
no 7 mission street satellite town
this might sound like a script from a nollywood movie but
my daddy’s dad was the landlord that i talked about
guess he tried to make amends put my big sister and i in his will gave us a couple mill and we still got scammed
at least i used part of that money to graduate
didn’t get half but that’s a story for another day
yeah

i was born in 95
wanna live long don’t wanna make it to 95
my life has been a bumpy ride
tryna switch lanes wanna make it to the sunny side
yeah
i was born in 95
wanna live long don’t wanna make it to 95
my life has been a bumpy ride
i’m tryna switch lanes
couple years after mum found love again
and he loved me like his and i grew up loving him
he’s my daddy my friend my superman
kept me warm during harmattan
didn’t always get what i wanted but i didn’t lack needs
didn’t grow taller but i didn’t lack beans
shoutout to my mum, dad and my grandma for setting me straight when i did some bad deeds
th-rns on my hands but it wasn’t always rosy
so i counted on god like catholics did with rosaries
it’s been a couple years since we last spoke
haven’t been to church cause sometimes i feel like god wears a blindfold
never taking a day off
working night shifts till i can afford days off
no briberies i’m hoping this music pays off
born in 95 don’t wanna die in my 9 to 5
or get laid off
yeah
