Quotable Lyrics:

The grass is greener on the other side
That’s what I thought before I took the ride
I burned my bridges, so I never look back
But if I had known
The life I was searching for is looking me right in the eye, oh
If I had known the life I was searching for was already my own
Ire bènilê (Ire, ayo)
Ire, ire, ire
Ire, ire, ayo
Onpemi (Onpemi kin ma bo)
Oni kin ma bo (Ire)
Oni ki ma bo
Ire
Ire, ire, ire (Ire)
Ire, ire, ayo
Onpemi (Ire, ayo)
Oni kin ma bo (Oni kin ma bo)
Oni ki ma bo (Oni kin ma bo)
