Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh
Oh this takes me home
It makes me think about
Sitting outside of my old home
When I was younger and singing something like

Gabar yaroo subhaano maro shabeelo hirato
Maro qafiifa huwato maga'aaga ii sheeg
Magaeygu waa sharaf, sharaf haaji weeyan
Aqalada hariirta dhina baan ka jooga
Alla ya u sheega tinta u shanleeya

Nahoy zamzamey sabaah nuurey
Adoo kin kin iyo kaluun badaneey
Adoo hajka jira xasuus badaneey

Sahiibtaa asho ashaq baa dilay
Ugu dambeyntiina
Aniyo geeluba
Wa u banaanbahnay

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

There are certain things fresh and certain things mesh
I got my own sound, I don't sound like the rest
And even my attire and my choice of dress
And not long ago I don't spoke English

My point is police pull me over a lot
They wonder what kind of rap sheet I got
And sometimes I take a young girl out to eat
And hold the door open, oh you're so sweet

Of course my affection's super illustrated
And I like to give, don't reciprocate it
Unless you could give me someone innovated
Well let's cook it up, we don't refrigerate it

But back to the country of the educated
Where people get robbed and they celebrate it

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

Maraken, my country 'tis of thee, sweet land for robberies
Dos smokin' SUV's, grab me an army green
Fat and frills, thrills and spills, eat and sleep, hump and kill
Shop til you drop, work til you dead
Get all you can then get in the wear

Outta my face on your knees
Sleep in the mansion shut out the streets
Make that cake, whoop that trick
Lick my swagger, suck my sick

Get high get low get sticky get rich
Get yo own show get down get quick
You slow, you blow, you broke your fix

Terror dome, home swag home
Terror dome, home swag home
Home swag home
Home swag home

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
(America)
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
(America)
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

There are some things pure while certain things blur
Dilute it with the lie and you believe when it occur
Falsified information got my people in the stir
We have to be in search of something equal to the cure

Straight out the door, I come to give you more
Lay the law, keep it raw when I speak it from the core
Get underneath your skin like especially with the claw
Conflicted with the rich 'cause I kick it with the poor

I laugh in the face of adversity
Sound clashed with the bass 'cause it's natural to me
But if you pay attention to the past you will see
Not long ago you black they'd hang your ass from a tree

But certain things, things change, while some stay the same
Some are recluse others are lovers of the game
I'm trying to walk the lane, the serahtal mustakeen
Instead of doing things that keep you covered in the flame

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
(America)
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

Wanagii orodnee nabad barinee
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay
(America)
Mareykan waa laga soo waayay

Nanananana that shit was cool in English
But let me get that Somali verse

Gabar yaroo subhaano maro shabeelo hirato
Maro qafiifa huwato maga'aaga ii sheeg
Magaeygu waa sharaf, sharaf haaji weeyan
Aqalada hariirta dhina baan ka jooga
Alla ya u sheega tinta u shanleeya

Nahoy zamzamey sabaah nuurey
Adoo kin kin iyo kaluun badaneey
Adoo hajka jira xasuus badaneey

Sahiibtaa asho ashaq baa dilay
Ugu dambeyntiina
Aniyo geeluba
Wa u banaanbahnay
