lirik lagu ilé – bantu (crew)

[verse 1: ade bantu]
as i trek into the twilight of uncertainty
exiting to become a celebrity with some dignity
wanting to recover from self-pity injuries
where fakers make enquiries dissecting personalities
i stare at a stranger claiming to be me
as the wealth of experience embedded in time
leave me hunting for a dope rhyme
in half time to come shine and get mine fine
the centre looking for the middle
shadows dancing to the fiddle
god running from the people
good turned into the cripple
exile packaged with the blues
while i await the dawn to return to my roots
i reminisce of all the wasted time and our youths

[chorus]
ilé ono jin o it’s a long long way from
ilé ono jin o it’s a long long way from ile

[verse 2: ade bantu]
mother i ask will you still open your arms to the prodigal son
the long gone lost one hasn’t damage been done?
shit i’m feening for the sun
the smell from your pots the red of your earth
the smile of our gods your wisdom in words
it’s the way you savour life to the fullest
your hospitality got me running for your breast
no contest yo africa you’re forever the best!
say no matter what they say and no matter what they do
i will keep on loving you sticking tight like glue
you’re my one and only beau my harbour and my anchor
whenever i’m depressed sad and blue

[chorus]
ilé ono jin o it’s a long long way from
ilé ono jin o it’s a long long way from ile
gotta move on gotta move on – ilé
ilé ono jin o it’s a long long way from ilé
ilé ono jin o it’s a long long way from ilé
