[Intro]
Yo, Abobo echoes in the night
[Verse 1]
I grew up where the streets bite harder than steel,
Every day we fight for a bread on this weathered field.
Abobo, hot block, no room for the weak,
They said you won’t go far, I turned hate into a streak.
[Verse 2]
Nouchi whispers, they say you’ve got nothing to show,
Famine knocks, I served my dreams on a silver plate of glow.
They laughed when I walked barefoot, now they watch me rise,
Bravery ain’t luck, it’s never bowing, face to the skies.
[Pre-Chorus]
N’ka soni la, n’ka tiè la, ye mogo kèra la
[Chorus]
From the trenches we rise, voices loud and clear,
We speak what others hide, we hold the truth near.
From the ground to the crown, the fire never tires,
We march our own path, fueled by inner fires.
[Bridge]
Onyx beat in the heart of the street, hear the drum,
Dioula echoes remind us: you’re never done.
[Verse 3]
La rage du guéto, c’est pas un spectacle!
Onyx and Dioula pulse, we push through the wreck.
Paroles qui piquent, qui marquent, qui blessent,
We say it loud, the real story we bless with honesty.
[Chorus]
From the trenches we rise, voices loud and clear,
We speak what others hide, we hold the truth near.
From the ground to the crown, the fire never tires,
We march our own path, fueled by inner fires.
[Outro]
Abobo stands, unbreakable, we persevere.
