Tiakola – Soza Lyrics (English Translation)
(Intro)
Nyadji’, Nyadjiko, ah yeah
Nyadjiko, ah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Let us shine, then
Let us shine in the dark
Let us shine, then
(Pre-Chorus)
The Parisian view, protected, I’m the star, mama
Raised on the tarmac, I’m the LV in the handbag
The Parisian view, protected, I’m the star, mama
Raised on the tarmac, I’m the LV in the handbag, yeah
(Chorus)
Oh-oh, Soza (Oh-oh, Soza)
Oh, Lola (Oh, Lola)
You, you talked about me (You talked about me)
I kept it all on me (I kept it all on me)
Oh-oh, Soza (Oh-oh, Soza)
Oh, Lola (Oh, Lola)
You, you talked about me (You talked about me)
I kept it all for me (I kept it all for me)
(Verse 1)
I’ve always lived in a war without peace.
Will the truth ever save us?
I wonder if we even deserve to have this in the bag.
Too many risks, too much danger to have it all.
But today, everything’s fine; I live a delicate life.
We had to feed ourselves, provide for ourselves.
Shine like diamonds, diamonds.
By the sound—it’s the soil of my country.
Hard to face the unknown, a brother who folds when things get hot.
Values and principles before money.
No time to waste on foolishness.
(Pre-Chorus)
The Parisian view, protected, I’m the star, mama
Raised on the tarmac, I’m the LV in the handbag
The Parisian view, protected, I’m the star, mama
Raised on the tarmac, I’m the LV in the handbag, yeah
(Chorus)
Oh-oh, Soza (Oh-oh, Soza)
Oh, Lola (Oh, Lola)
You, you talked about me (You talked about me)
I kept it all on me (I kept it all on me)
Oh-oh, Soza (Oh-oh, Soza)
Oh, Lola (Oh, Lola)
You, you talked about me (You talked about me)
I kept it all for me (I kept it all for me)
(Verse 2)
Hello? Mama, please.
All these people bothering us—we can’t stay silent.
Work doesn’t know luck; there’s no secret.
It doesn’t take much for us to see who’s wrong.
Let us shine, then. Let us shine in the dark.
We can’t just think about bathing in the dirt.
In a German racing car,
We can’t just think about ruling in the dirt.
Sooner or later, we’ll all end up alone.
Let us shine, then.
Hello? Mama, please.
Let us shine, then.
(Pre-Chorus)
The Parisian view, protected, I’m the star, mama
Raised on the tarmac, I’m the LV in the handbag
The Parisian view, protected, I’m the star, mama
Raised on the tarmac, I’m the LV in the handbag, yeah
(Chorus)
Oh-oh, Soza (Oh-oh, Soza)
Oh, Lola (Oh, Lola)
You, you talked about me (You talked about me)
I kept it all on me (I kept it all on me)
Oh-oh, Soza (Oh-oh, Soza)
Oh, Lola (Oh, Lola)
You, you talked about me (You talked about me)
I kept it all for me (I kept it all for me)
(Outro)
Oh-oh, Soza (Let us shine, then)
Oh, Lola (Let us shine, then)
You, you talked about me (Let us shine, then)
I saved it all for me (Let us shine, then)
Oh-oh, Soza (Let us shine, then)
Oh, Lola (Let us shine, then)
You, you talked about me (Let us shine, then)
I saved it all for me (Let us shine, then)
