"They Want It, But No" lyrics

Tobe Nwigwe & Fat Nwigwe Lyrics

"They Want It, But No"
(from "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" soundtrack)

Drip, glow, soul, way
Clip, pole, smoke, fade

They want the drip, they want the glow
They want my soul, they want the way
I keep a clip, I keep a pole
Who want the smoke? Who want the fade?

Look, I know you want my number
I know you want my thunder
Why the laws wanna take us under?
Why the hell am I in this jungle?
I know you want my number
I know you want my thunder
Why the laws wanna take us under?
Why the hell am I in this jungle?

Why the hell the law wanna press me?
A little wrinkle in time, make you pull the iron out
Find out what I'm 'bout from the inside out
Ride out the hideout, playin', we don't try out
Fly out while we drive out, ain't no timeouts
We gon' pop out, how they try to kick us all out?
Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch
Bounce, crouch, or get slouched
My whole hood devout and
Vouch for the poems out of my mouth
My mama told me not to be a harlot
Granny helped me take the wise route
Although I'm itty-bitty, sittin' pretty
If the situation sticky, lights out
But for right now, it's funny how

They want the drip, they want the glow
They want my soul, they want the way
I keep a clip, I keep a pole
Who want the smoke? Who want the fade?

You cannot have it all (No)
What's all the starting for?
Drip (Oya), glow (Oya), soul (Oya), way (Come on)
Clip (Oya), pole (Haha), smoke (See am?), fade (Yeah)

Ọsịịsọ
Umu'ala al la gba chio gi
To God who made me

They want the drip, they want the glow
They want my soul, they want the way
I keep a clip, I keep a pole
Who want the smoke? Who want the fade?

You cannot have it all (No)
What's all the starting for?
Drip (Oya), glow (Oya)
Drip (Oya), glow (Oya), soul (Oya), way (Come on)
Clip (Oya), pole (Haha), smoke (See am?), fade (Yeah)

I can't feel my feet (Fallin')
I feel incomplete (Fallin')
How can all this be? (Fallin')
My body is me (Fallin')
I can't feel my feet (Fallin')
I feel incomplete (Fallin')
My body is me (Fallin')
Back on my feet (Fallin')

Officer, officer, I swear I ain't really got no out with you
Officer, officer, make me wanna—
Officer, officer, make me wanna—
Officer, officer, make me wanna—
Officer, officer, make me wanna—
