M.anifest-SUFFER

Uh huh
Budo
M doh doh doh ti doh

African Man original

Gari Soakings for breakfast
Noodles for supper
Gotta eat proper but my pockets ain’t dapper
Junk food manics, economics is a bluffer
Need to go organic or my health might suffer

As I grew older I was told to be tougher
Gotta shoot the five to survive but I’m a rapper
No doubt, if the shots ring out, brucka
I ain’t goin’ out like a sucka, I might (suffer)

If you got a name like Muhammed or Mustafa
Flyin’ might be tougher, my sympathies brother
Cuz since towers fell it’s been hell if you other
Like Benjamin Linus, your grind is bound to suffer

Baboon dey chop wey monkey dey suffer
Tension dey my inside like Ghana dey play soccer
Success in relative chaw, aunts and wofas
The issue, no bruh go biz u if u suffer

[CHORUS ]
kayayo dey sufer
Taxi driver dey suffer
Musician dey suffer
Opposition dey suffer
Immigrant dey suffer
Borga sef dey suffer
You’ve never known joy if you’ve never had to suffer

Villgers dey suffer
Broke rappers dey suffer
Priests no dey suffer but small boys dey suffer
Jesus Christ I’m so nice i shouldn’t suffer
You’ve never known joy if you’ve never had to suffer

[Verse 2]
Sucks getting caught up in traffic in rush hour
Wish I had magic or teleporting power
Late for this interview, my fear getting louder
My chances of gettin’ this job are gonna suffer

Ghanaian mannerism like ebei! Aba!
Got these Yankee folks on they jokes, I’m not bothered
No no, nuh uh, the kid is toppa toppa
Top shotta, Even Jesus had to suffer

Rhythm kidnapper, known as the X-Factor
But you don’t hear me tho’ like lyrics by Wakka Flocka
Liberty on lock up shackles crippling dreams
Rather speak truth and let the rhyme scheme [Suffer]

These crabs in the barrel more concerned about apparel
Argumentative and talkative i Silence with a gavel
Tribalist Extortionist, greed is where corruption is
Karma is a motherfucker, she gon make you suffer

[CHORUS]
See, I’m not a trapper, I’m just a boom bapper
Like it or don’t keep it steppin’ like a kappa
My shit constipated, I don’t need a crapper
Wary of the zombies who smile while they suffer

I mean this, men are from mars women from venus
Vagina monologues, chronicles of the penis
For real though, its seem so, falling need a buffer
Miscommunication why relationships, suffer

Nananom Saman foc ( yao) Asase Yaa (yao)
For starters, for the martyers, lick shots like POW
Early birds and night owls salute to big poppas
Freedom mamis for our future they had to suffer

There’s something unusual and beautifully strange about pain
Tell me what’s sun without rain
Give up my dreams for comfort and cream?
Thanks for the offer, but I’d rather suffer

M.anifest-SANKOFA(history)

Intro
Uhuh, go back…
Go back and reclaim it…

Verse 1
You got a penny for my thoughts? Let me double the fee
The cd is for a price, but the wisdom is free
Spiritually I’m in tune to the memory of those dead and gone
Feeling like biggie smalls, y’all dead wrong
For twisting up my history
Like blunts and trees
Like public enemy, elvis ain’t meant shit to me
I don’t care if u agree,
I’m just speaking my piece
Yall know u did niggas dirty like the bottom of cleats
And its bogus,
Columbus ain’t no real discoverer
And slaves were captured like images on cameras
I’m an analyst, a journalist, a modern day Copernicus
My moms gave me a solid foundation like make a wish
I feel like fish
Need a water cleanse, rinse
Let the waves rid me off my sins
Taking u back, rap like Hitchcock with the slow
It’s still bigger than Hip-Hop u know
Mr slow flow, here’s the evidence
Dilated, unearth history and celebrate it
Sankofa means I’m going back to reclaim it
Climbing over hills where Lauryn was miseducated

Hook
My history, your history, our history
So tragically, has been erased
Don’t be afraid
Sankofa, back to our ways x2

Verse 2
If u don’t know where you’re from,
Now tell me where are you going?
m.anifest is fresh and fly like a Boeing
757, way back in ’97, way before 9-11
I had no way of telling I would be
The mc I came to be
Discovered myself when I found my history
Buried underneath the corners of libraries
I learn my ABC’s before I throw some D’s…
On em
And if they had a way
They’ll prolly never tell us who paved the way
I must say, I feel like Biko
A young Nelson Mandela with the ANC
I’m for my people
And I’m so cerebral, and so so regal
In my batakari, yes! Pass me the gari
If Fernando Po brought us cocoa
And if Yaa Asantewa was a warrior
Why hide it? Ohooo

Hook

Verse 3
From the kingdoms of Western Sudan, Mali and Songhai
Nubian Lands where black kings made empires
More fire to kemet or kush
Cheikh Anta Diop penned the truth in his books
Sankofa; we remember the good with the bad
The bogas, the kubolors, oga this is not a fad
Sankofa; I said we reclaiming the past
Sankofa ay ay ay
Sankofa one time, Bamako to Naija
Heroes, Angelique Kidjo, Kofi Ghanaba
Sankofa; ougadougou to Jo’burg
Where linguistics drop proverbs, say word
Sankofa; Word once a again
Street level oratory transcribed with a pen
Hands in the air you can lick a shot
Sincerely yours m diggy diggy dot

Intro
A-yo
i'm in time for just one night, i'm out here for one night only x2

Verse 1
I’ll give her the time of her life, the timing is right
There’s only one catch, I gotta catch flight
Next day GH to SA, no use for excuses or drunken essays
Inquisitive she say “ei you be like them?”
Gives me x’s and o’s on bbm
Dudes in the new BM she don’t see them
She heard I played in paris with les Nubians
(huh) So she wan see feeli feeli
Obasima ohemaa touchy feely
Yes indeedy lie-lie-lie-lie-life dey jom
Young troubadour travel more singing my songs
Taste of my melanin medicine is addictive
One night affair to be realistic
No strings attached its cordless
What matters in our matters is in the chorus, so sing the chorus
Ay-yo

Hook
I tried to warn u, that once u taste it u can’t let it go
It’s all in your mind. Some love affair but u already know

I’m in town for just one night, just one night

Verse2
I just come pass, I dey come go

Forbidden fruit sweetie e dey sweet oh
But later the heart pays a price, lampo
Lampo, onya ka ob3 ware me mmm dondo

desire’s strong can’t be wrong its right
if time is currency then she spending the night, right
Ay-yo
