    Lyrics
    Naija women
    Got the melanin dripping
    L o n d o n
    City girl living
    In the back looking like fire chilli pepper
    Yoruba girl tougher than imperial leather
    He was getting bitter while she was getting better
    Diamonds are forever
    Miss Sierra Leone looking like a gem
    Works hard in the week
    Party on the weekend
    Know you wanna live with no one watching how you spend
    Got a thing for the finer things and the finer men
    Miss Tanzania she a do or die
    Say she wanna know more bout the Sukuma Tribe
    We hit the zoot
    Once wasn’t enough
    Got an ocean full of knowledge you could scuba dive
    Miss Ethiopia can play so jazzy
    Then sit you down and school you on Selassie
    Telll em your nothing without a woman no
    Woman to woman I just wanna see you glow
    Tellem what’s up
    I love
    How you go from zero to 1 hundred
    And leave the dust behind you’ve got this
    All action no talk
    Bajan honeys
    Know you repping for your country
    Sun kissing your brown skin looking like money
    Say she focusing on being an accountant
    When you have beauty and brains they find it astounding
    Why? She been getting it on her own nigga
    Self made ain’t nobody doing gold digger
    Now
    Miss India always speaks with her chest
    Got respect from her people cos she leads them the best
    Real life queen in the flesh
    Know the crown get heavy still it beez on your head
    Brooklyn ladies
    Know you hustle daily
    Innovative just like Donna Summer in the 80s
    Your time they seeing you glow now
    Intelligence and elegance show em how
    Miss Jamaica understand food for the soul if she get up in the kitchen know she throw down
    Ain’t nothing without a woman though
    Woman to woman I just wanna see you glow
    Tellem what up
    I love
    How you go from zero to 1 hundred
    And leave the dust behind you’ve got this
    All action no talk
    I see your glow you’re the finest gold
    When you walk in the room they feel your soul
    Your style it shines so ahead of time
    And you know that you’re fire you’re so damn fine girl
    She a Ghana girl
    Calm with it never let the marijuana fail
    Though a sucker for the romance
    Take you to the home land
    One way she ain’t coming back nah
    All I see is black stars
    And I friggin love it yeah yeah
    Times up tell the people that we coming yeah yeah
    Done being in the shadow going public yeah yeah
    Don’t know how to bare it how to stomach yeah yeah
    Hand over this shit and let us run it yeah yeah
    All we know is looking flawless all they know is stare stare
    Ain’t nothing with a woman though
    Woman to woman I just wanna see you glow
    I love
    How you go from zero to 1 hundred
    And leave the dust behind you’ve got this
    And lead them with your light you’ve got this
    All action no talk

It keeps getting lower, there’s no standard. No, it doesn’t exist for men anymore. Finding a man who isn’t a raging misogynist is so rare, might as well appreciate those ones.

    There is so much emphasis and acknowledgement of Africa by black artists living abroad and I'm loving it.. There's a real sense of unity slowly being weaved together ❤
