Bella Shmurda – Contraband Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don’t you fake it, I like it don’t complicate things
Baby you gazing, on a low-key you must be a bandit
And if you see it and you like it, I’m gon buy it even contraband it
O yeah you’re bandit, I’m an addict tell government to legalize it
Bad man things, I dey gbana in peace
Bad man things, I dey do it my way
Bad man things, I dey chase my dream
Bad man things, Give them double energy
Bad man things, I no get love to share
Bad man things, Only God me I fear
Bad man things, Purple haze for the girls
Bad man things, Singing sweet melody
[Chorus]
Too much adviser kilotunde, Yetunde, kilotunde?
I need no adviser, not today, won ti dе, solo Makinde
Too much adviser kilotunde, Yеtunde, kilotunde?
Just for the paper, kowo tipe, kitigbe, fowotole
[Verse 2]
I’m sticking to my song, sticking to my song make dem leave me alone
Omoshalewa you see, twenty Hennessey I dey gbadun on a low
I be singing melody, doing many things I no send nobody
Plenty shima overseas, only you I see, oya baby follow me
[Chorus]
Too much adviser kilotunde (Nibo)
I’m talking paper, kowo Wole
(Leko, kowa bami leko)
I need no adviser, not today
(Leko, Leko, Omo mio gbagbo)
Too much adviser kilotunde (Leko)
Yetunde (Owo ni mofe ma palazo), kilotunde?
I need no adviser, not today won ti de, solo Makinde
Too much adviser kilotunde (Nibo)
Yetunde (Leko, kowa bami Leko) , kilotunde?
Just for the paper, kowo tipe (Leko) kitigbe, fowotole
(Leko, Omo mio gbagbo)
