BLACK CROWN

Moon high, drums low

Hear the night call my name

Fire in my bloodstream

I came to conquer again

Black lace, gold teeth

War paint underneath

I walk in, lights freeze

Whole room bow to the priestess

No fear in my body

Ancestors stand beside me

Thunder follow my heartbeat

Bad energy cannot find me

I’ve been dancing with the darkness

Now the darkness dances for me

Every scar became a weapon

Every wound became royalty

Black crown on my head

Blood moon burning red

Bass drum wake the dead

I no dey fear, I no dey beg

Black crown, black crown

When I move, walls fall down

Black crown, black crown

I own the night, I run this town

Cold stare, slow wine

Danger dressed so divine

Sweet tongue, sharp mind

Cross me once, pay me nine times

Spirit strong like ogogoro

Heart beat talking like the gongo

If you bring war to my door

I bring thunder times four

I’ve been dancing with the darkness

Now the darkness knows my name

Turned my sorrow into power

Now I’m walking through the flame

Black crown on my head

Blood moon burning red

Bass drum wake the dead

I no dey fear, I no dey beg

Black crown, black crown

When I move, walls fall down

Black crown, black crown

I own the night, I run this town

Ashes to diamonds

Pain into rhythm

Spirit of a lion

Nobody fit kill am

Ashes to diamonds

Pain into rhythm

Open the kingdom

Tell them I have risen

Gbedu for the shadows

Fire for the dance floor

One step, two step

Make the whole ground tremble

Gbedu for the shadows

Fire for the dance floor

If death come knocking

Tell am I’m not home

Black crown on my head

Blood moon burning red

Bass drum wake the dead

I no dey fear, I no dey beg

Black crown, black crown

When I move, walls fall down

Black crown, black crown

Queen of the night, I run this town

Moon high, drums low

Let the whole world know

I walked into the darkness

And came back with the throne
