Adekunle Gold Ft. Jacob Banks – “Ire (Remix)” (LYRICS ENGLISH TRANSLATION & MEANING)
As 9jalyrics.com.ng starts posting the Lyrics English Translation & Meaning to the tracks in Adekunle Gold’s “About 30” album, here is the one for “Ire (Remix)”, featuring Jacob Banks.
MEANING: The Yoruba term ‘Ire’ means ‘Good or Goodness or Blessing or the likes’ in English language. For this post, I’ll give ‘Ire’ the ‘He’ pronoun.
(VERSE 1- Adekunle Gold)
The grass is greener on the other side
That’s what I thought before I took the ride
I burnt my bridges so I never look bacK
But if I had known the life I was searching for
is looking me right in the eye oh oh oh
If I had known the life I wAs searching
for was alreaDy my own

Was looking me riGht in the eye oh, right in the eye
If I had known know this life I wAs searching for
was already my own owN
