Spell It with a K

Uh, I’ve been directed to your systems, it’s Afrikan Boy
And they always ask me how I got my name
I’m about to explain
Yeah, shouts out to Kobe
Spell it with a 'k'
Let’s go
This is a true story, told by yours truly
I was in Austin, Texas
South by Southwest twenty-fourteen
I was on the streets looking for something to eat
, that’s what I thought
As I passed a food court
I saw this white boy and a drum machine threaded to a app
I started junking, then running, turned into runking
I thank God I had my camera on me that day
I got to freestyle
It was real live, real wild
He was impressed, asked me for my name
I told him, «Afrikan Boy, spell it with a 'k'»
He said, «Yo, the same Afrikan Boy from M.I.A.?»
I said, «Right, she hit me up on MySpace»
I realize how blessed I am to be in my space
How many brothers wish they could take my place
You can do it if you just have faith
Come on!
Growing up in Woolwich,
beef that was back in my teens
Everyone that make the DJ
But if your bars weren’t hard, nobody listened
I got my in all that real shit
I never had a shower, I used to rock in a container
One day I went to Lidl and told everyone about it
Then I went viral
Before there was a viral
Before there was a iPhone
Before I had
I was on my shit
Owambe
Woolwich!
Owambe
Owambe
Owambe
Owambe
Hey!
Let’s go back to Nigeria, come on!
