歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Landed in the heat of Ikeja London winter feels like a stranger Yellow Danfos moving in a line Everything is moving on its own time Dust on my boots but I’m feeling fine Finally back to this city of mine [Pre-Chorus] Passport says one thing But my spirit wants to sing Between two shores I’m floating In this joy I’m coating [Chorus] Grandma’s turning eighty today Throw the heavy burdens away Jollof smoke is rising high Underneath the Lagos sky I’m home Yeah I’m finally home Singing out my father’s song Where the roots are deep and strong [Post-Chorus] (Ooh, Lagos in my blood) (Ooh, feeling all the love) (Ooh, Lagos in my blood) (Ooh, feeling all the love) [Verse] Walked past the shop on the corner Still smells like spice and summer Used to play ball in the rain Healing every London pain Uncle’s laughing loud at the gate Telling me I’m never too late Pounding yam in the heavy pot Giving everything that he got [Pre-Chorus] Passport says one thing But my spirit wants to sing Between two shores I’m floating In this joy I’m coating [Chorus] Grandma’s turning eighty today Throw the heavy burdens away Jollof smoke is rising high Underneath the Lagos sky I’m home Yeah I’m finally home Singing out my father’s song Where the roots are deep and strong [Bridge] From the Thames to the Lagoon I’ll be dancing under the moon Proud of the accent I carry And the roots that I won’t bury Two worlds in one single heart This is where the stories start [Hook] Hear the trumpets blow Let the highlife flow Watch the elders go Put on a golden show [Chorus] Grandma’s turning eighty today Throw the heavy burdens away Jollof smoke is rising high Underneath the Lagos sky I’m home Yeah I’m finally home Singing out my father’s song Where the roots are deep and strong [Outro]
