being a black british nigerian muslim
Lyrics
Yeah... uh-huh... from the ends to the mosque steps...
Black skin in the London rain, hoodie up but my mind stay sharp
Nigerian blood in my veins, grandma’s stories light the dark
Friday jummah, then Sunday pepper soup on the stove
British passport in my hand, still they ask where I’m from, though
Accent switches when I land in Lagos, family call me by my middle name
Back in Brixton, same face, different lane, still they stare the same
Quran on my phone, beats in my ears, trying to hold the line
Three worlds pulling at once, but they all feel like mine
Black British, Nigerian roots
Muslim heart, still I move, still I move
Black British, Nigerian roots
Muslim heart, still I move, still I move
Yeah, still I move, still I move
Yeah, still I move, still I move
School tried to box me in, told me pick one lane
But I’m three things at once, can’t fit in their frame
Eid in the ends, then Christmas with the cousins
Jollof and plantain, then back to the dozens
Pray five times, still chase the bag
They see the beard and the skin, already got a tag
But I walk like my grandad walked through the village
Like my mum walked through the airport with a vision
Like my dad worked nights so the next one could breathe
I’m the sum of all that, still they can’t believe
Black British, Nigerian roots
Muslim heart, still I move, still I move
Black British, Nigerian roots
Muslim heart, still I move, still I move
Yeah, still I move, still I move
Yeah, still I move, still I move
Some days I’m just tired of explaining who I am
Other days I wear all three like a crown, fam
No need to shrink, no need to pick
I’m the bridge, I’m the link, I’m the whole damn mix
Black British, Nigerian roots
Muslim heart, still I move, still I move
Black British, Nigerian roots
Muslim heart, still I move, still I move
Yeah, still I move, still I move
Yeah, still I move, still I move
(Still I move)
