Middle Passage Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was coming home late from work
And I hear a voice from home
I turned and I saw this man
He told me he was an African
He’s mysterious, and intelligent
Has a PHD to his name
He's come to be a king in this land
Go ahead and be all you can


[Pre-Chorus]
You’re a soldier
And a conqueror
World place of mind is you
But they act like it's not true
How they hate on you
That’s why they try to destroy you
The days, struggles are true
I place no one above you


[Chorus]
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love

[Verse 2]
You’re the reason I sang this song
The reason I sang at all
First born, Romeo
Ha, this one's for you
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Hair like a mouse, skin like the earth
Eyes sprung like fire
My hearts desire


[Pre-Chorus]
You’re a soldier
And a conqueror
World place of mind is you
But they act like it's not true
How they hate on you
That’s why they try to destroy you
The days, struggles are true
I place no one above you


[Chorus]
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love

[Bridge]
Ola
Ola
Ola
Ola
I raise you high
I need you in my life
How far can my love go
As low
As low as the roots below
Or as high
As high
As high as the birds in the sky


[Chorus]
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love
Can't bring it all asoro
Atene lowa
My love
My love
My love
My love
