Sarkodie | Black Love – Can’t Let You Go Lyrics (English Translation) King Promise

[Intro]
Oh na na na eh
Oh na na na eh
King, King Promise
King, King Promise
[Verse 1]
If what I see before my eyes isn’t a dream,
Then you’re mine — my queen.
When you rest your head on my chest at dawn,
Name your price, I’ll pay it all.
She says she loves me deeply,
She says she’ll stay till the end.
She won’t love anyone else anymore —
Those against us will cry in the end.
[Pre-Chorus]
My owner, my lover —
Ever since you came my way, oh yeah,
I’ve never felt this way before, before, before.
I don’t need anyone but you, no.
See, baby, I’ll hold you,
I’ll keep your heart, girl —
I’ll never let you go.
[Chorus]
Look, you overwhelm me —
You take my breath away.
I never thought I’d fall in love like this again.
You overwhelm me —
You drive me crazy, oh-oh.
Crazy, oh-oh.
[Verse 2]
Listen —
I see my girl from the driveway.
She loves me, I love her — what can I say?
Everything we do, we do our way.
How many times do we kiss? All day.
This is so crazy, Germans would call it “sheisse.”
When I see her, I can’t resist, baby.
She’s been with me from nothing to payday —
Like the famous couple, Konadu and JJ.
Girl, I want a kiss —
Can you give it to me like this?
Let’s go shopping, forget the prices.
If you leave me, I’ll turn into a rebel.
And if I break your heart — that’s a crisis.
But I feel your vibe. I want to do right.
Let me put a ring on it and stop playing around.
Big cars, more money — come sweeten my life.
Listen to the song I sing: bidiponbidi.
[Chorus]
Look, you overwhelm me —
You take my breath away.
I never thought I’d fall in love like this again.
You overwhelm me —
You drive me crazy, oh-oh.
Crazy, oh-oh.
[Verse 3]
Girl, you have a good body, a sweet face —
True love, walking on the beach, day and night shift.
You’re always desirable, no fake beauty.
You deserve all the Gucci and Balmain.
I’m not the only one who wants you — so many men do.
Your love makes me bow like a Shaolin monk.
Today I’ll play my violin.
Shawty really likes my style — she says I’m exciting.
Girl, your body is enticing.
I already have the cake — now I want the icing.
Give me your waist, let me take control.
But I feel your vibe. I want to do right.
Let me put a ring on it and stop playing around.
Big cars, more money — come sweeten my life.
Listen to the song I sing: bidiponbidi.
[Chorus / Outro]
You drive me crazy, ee — crazy, oo.
I never thought I’d fall in love like this again.
You drive me crazy, ee — crazy, oh-oh.
My owner, my lover —
Ever since you came my way, oh yeah,
I’ve never felt this way before, before, before.
I don’t need anyone but you, no.
See, baby, I’ll hold you,
I’ll keep your heart, girl —
I’ll never let you go.
Look, you overwhelm me —
You take my breath away.
I never thought I’d fall in love like this again.
You drive me crazy, oh-oh.
Crazy, oh-oh.
