The Lyrics for Ire by Adekunle Gold
{Verse 1}
The grass is greener on the other side
That’s what I thought before I took the ride
I burnt my bridges, so I’d never look back
But if I had known, the life I was searching for was looking me right in the eye oh oh oh
If I had known the life I was searching for was already my own
Ire nbe nile o
Ire ayo o
{Chorus}
Ire Ire Ire
Ire Ire ayo, o kpe mi o
o kpe mi kin ma bo o
O ni kin ma bo (Ire o)
O ni kin ma bo
Ire o
Ire Ire Ire (Ire o)
Ire Ire ayo, o kpe mi o (Ire…ayo)
O ni kin ma bo (O ni kin ma bo)
O ni kin ma bo (O ni kin ma bo)
Ire o
{Verse 2}
The grass is greener when you water the ground
That’s what I found when I took the ride
I realise the mountain I’ve been climbing is nothing but sand o
I didn’t know I already had the answer
no, I didn’t know
but if I had known, the life I was searching for was looking me right in the eye oh oh oh
If I had known the life I was searching for was already my own
{Chorus}
Ire Ire Ire (Ire o)
Ire Ire ayo, o kpe mi o (O kpe mi oh oh oh)
O ni kin ma bo (O ni kin ma bo)
O ni kin ma bo (O ni kin ma bo)
Ire
Ire Ire Ire (Ire o)
Ire Ire ayo, o kpe mi o (It’s calling out to me)
O ni kin ma bo (O ni kin ma bo)
O ni kin ma bo (Ire o)
Ire
Ire Ire Ire (Ire Ire o…Ire ayo)
o kpe mi o (o kpe mi kin mabo)
E da mi sha tokun fe si mi o, jen kpada sin le
Ma je sun mo aye, maje
{Outro}
