Lyrics:
Friends transactions, money-drenched passions
Heart in casket, frigid like Baskins, oh
I remember back then, or was you actin?
Till you pulled the mask, punkin niggas like Ashton, oh You switched code
Songs are in your eyes
They sing so sad, though
Airplanes on your mind
You wanna get gone
All day every day you’re riding highs
Drown in quiet with the rising tides
Like oh, like oh but
You’re the Original
You go, they wanna go too
You’re the original
You never do what they do
You’re the original
Don’t let them counterfeit you
Don’t let them counterfeit you
Wow, wow, wow
And when I make my multi mill, I did it real
I didn’t sacrifice the feel for the bill
But then again how can I judge? niggas need bucks
And when you make it out the mud
You’re never goin back to the sludge
Look up high, wild sky,
They’re all high, whole function flying
You’re the Original
You go, they wanna go too
You’re the original
You never do what they do
You’re the original
Don’t let them counterfeit you
Don’t let them counterfeit you
Look up high, wild sky,
We’re all high, whole function flying
You’re the original, always original
Never forget you’re an original, you’re the original
thanks for listening, my loves ✨
We love you Mereba, you MUST come back to SA after the album 🥰
Wait WTF! I legit just discovered you yesterday. I started looking through your songs and i got disappointed when i saw you haven’t posted in three years. Then i wake up and i see a new song, that’s crazy luck and timing 😊
@@kwakhozizo7275 wait she was in S.A?
We need more music from you mereba! When are you releasing a new album darling ?
Thank you creating, darling ✨🌻
It's been 3 years. We've missed you mama🤩
When an artist is really out here making art, not trend hoppin’ 🧘🏾♀️🤲🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Jumping on LA streets is def trend hopping rn😂
@@willowcove888 yappin jus to yap
@@Everythingislove123thats what im saying
I know this probably isn’t the meaning, but I interpreted the end as facing your shadow self. Almost realizing it can’t harm you, but help you instead. And then you finally get to move forward.
i think thats exactly it
I like that interprétation
I was screaming “run towards it”!! If you continue to run, you gon be running for the rest of your life.
Right! The only way out is through
You know you gon see us South Africans here too like cmon🇿🇦🇿🇦🛐🛐
We need you in Cape Town again 😩😩
🎉🇿🇦
Jhb baba😂
Sauta 🇿🇦
@@unayewillem1733 JHB!!!! Stand up!!!
Don’t let them counterfeit you ❤❤❤
You know em visuals always gon eat when it comes to Mereba 😩🤝🤝🤝
She's just too original and authentic!! with a touch of classic soul music. It's a top notch. 💯 Much love from Nigeria!!
The timing of this song was impeccable. And it has actual meaning. ❤. Pure music
This made me wanna cry for some reason

This is the way you come back, like you never left!
You are so for the culture and it’s so refreshing to see. Always. Your messaging has always remained consistent and it’s always needed. Any Black household with a daughter needs your full catalog. I mean every household really but especially us.
