lyrics

She was special baby she was special
She was extra baby she was extra
Body hot like a sauna
She will eat you up like a Piranha
My sunrise was in America but my sun sets in Ghana

Dark as a coffee bean
Legs long like a Pentecostal worshipping uh
But Ghana's the scene uh
In Accra, and I'ma get lost all in her English patois
Her people were clearly Maroons - fighters from the start

Um
I'm in awe
I had a corporate job back in America
Climbing a ladder that's empty once you reached the top
Plus I had enough of living against my peace and trust
I needed Africa

Like Chris Tucker or Dave Chapelle I said farewell
It was the year of return I wanted citizenship back
Where my ancestors were equipped and lived very well
Where I could gel
Where we excelled in the lane of Akan languages
Here with you now I cant explain just how sane it is
What I’m saying is

She was special baby she was special
She was extra baby she was extra
Body hot like a Sauna
She'll eat you up like a Piranha
My sun rise was in America
But my sun sets in Ghana

She was special baby she was special
She was extra baby she was extra
Body hot like a Sauna
She'll eat you up like a Piranha
My sun rise was in America
But my sun sets in Ghana

But my sun sets in Ghana
But my sun sets in Ghana

I met this girl named Aba at Republic bar
Akpeteshi shots out with a couple stars
AJ Nelson Reggie Rock Eddie Blay leaned over like she's very hot
I mean very hot like yam chips and peppers
I'm smooth I move quick but my plans is forever my plan is get her
Together we will be better this weather is never cold not ever I'm glad I met her
It's been a long time since I been in town
Said she would show me all around if I'm really down
I'm down
So now we hit the rehab club that's at the beach I see the brother Speech at much
Dancing to Feli Nuna me and this chick tho
I barely knew her hoping she ain't a slay queen as I kick it to her
A night cap that could be in the  schedule
I bet you would love how I caress undress you and Speech
Do me a fav and sing the rest dude because

She was special baby she was special
She was extra baby she was extra
Body hot like a Sauna
She'll eat you up like a Piranha
My sun rise was in America
But my sun sets in Ghana
