[Verse 1] Zogo hier, poche vide, on a dormi dehors, Baba Drogba me dit mon fils, demain sera en or, Andamso dans le gbonhi, il a gardé la foi très fort, Rafinia, Baasiedou connaissent le prix quand la nuit est morte, Kébano, Alaba Baoulé, Akamilass on a charbonné, on a serré fort, Le boucan arrive, Oluwa a déjà ouvert la porte. [Pre-Chorus] Me dofo, wo ho yɛ fɛ, tu as changé mon sort, Anadwo yi yɛsu, anɔpa yi on devient fort, On a connu le kpaklo, les faux amis, le faux confort, Mais Yesu mogya nti, on ira jusqu'au port. [Chorus] Odo yewu eh, Baba Drogba, Andamso, Rafinia, Baasiedou, Kébano, Alaba Baoulé, Akamilass, yɛbɛyɛ bi, on va boucan, Yesu mogya nti, Baba Drogba, Andamso, Rafinia, Baasiedou, Kébano, Alaba Baoulé, Akamilass, du zogo au château, on est dedans. [Verse 2 - Plus Rue] Yopougon 3h du mat, Baba Drogba est encore debout, Andamso compte ses jetons, mais il ne tombe pas à genoux, Rafinia, Baasiedou ont vu les boucantiers nous zayer partout, Kébano, Alaba Baoulé, Akamilass savent que le hustle, c'est nous, On a lavé nos larmes, on a mis le cœur, on a tout mis, c'est fou, Aujourd'hui le log drum frappe, demain c'est nous les patrons du game, c'est nous. [Chorus] Odo yewu eh, Baba Drogba, Andamso, Rafinia, Baasiedou, Kébano, Alaba Baoulé, Akamilass, yɛbɛyɛ bi, on va boucan, Yesu mogya nti, Baba Drogba, Andamso, Rafinia, Baasiedou, Kébano, Alaba Baoulé, Akamilass, du zogo au château, on est dedans. [Verse 3 - Le Couplet Motivation - 1 minute] Écoute bien petit, Baba Drogba n'a jamais lâché l'affaire, Andamso m'a dit un jour, si tu dors, tu vas te perdre, Rafinia, Baasiedou prient pour le ghetto, pour nos mères, Kébano, Alaba Baoulé, Akamilass ont connu la galère, la vraie misère, Mais on a gardé le sourire, le cœur propre, l'âme sincère, Et c'est pour ça aujourd'hui, le ciel s'ouvre, la lumière éclaire, On vient de loin, on a tout vu, la faim, le froid, les commentaires, Maintenant c'est notre tour, on va briller, on va tout faire. [Bridge - Piano Seul + Voix Cassée] Wo dɔ nti na mete ase... (c'est pour ton amour que je vis) Yɛfiri famu kɔ soro... (du sol au ciel) Yɛn merɛ abɛduru... (notre heure est arrivée) Yesu mogya... ayɛ adwuma... [Drop Final - 1min - On crie tout] BABA DROGBA! ANDAMSO! RAFINIA! BAASIEDOU! KÉBANO! ALABA BAOULÉ! AKAMILASS! YƐBƐYƐ BI! BABA DROGBA! ANDAMSO! RAFINIA! BAASIEDOU! KÉBANO! ALABA BAOULÉ! AKAMILASS! ON VA BOUCAN! Odo yewu... ma chérie coco... On a réussi... on a réussi... [Outro] Baba... Andamso... Rafinia... Baasiedou... Kébano... Alaba... Akamilass... yɛbɛyɛ bi...

Genre
Afro-Piano / Conscious Hip-Hop
Gist
A powerful anthem celebrating resilience and collective triumph over adversity. The song chronicles the journey from street poverty ("zogo") to success, honoring the mentors and community members who maintained faith through hardship. It's a testimonial to perseverance, spiritual grounding, and the unshakeable belief that better days are inevitable.
Themes
- Resilience & Determination: The relentless hustle from nothing to everything
- Community & Brotherhood: Named individuals representing collective struggle and mutual support
- Spiritual Faith: References to divine intervention (Yesu mogya, Oluwa) as the foundation of hope
- Social Ascension: The metaphorical journey from street level ("zogo") to prosperity ("château")
- Authenticity: Maintaining moral integrity and genuine character through the climb
Inspiration
This track was conceived as an Afro-Piano composition with distant log drums, creating an intimate yet powerful soundscape for a motivational narrative. The user's original request for a specific instrumentation set the sonic foundation for a deeply personal West African story—blending French street vernacular with Twi and Akan phrases—that transforms individual names into symbols of collective triumph and spiritual awakening.
Emotional Impact
The song delivers an uplifting yet grounded emotional resonance. The intimate piano arrangement contrasts with raw, street-authentic lyrics, creating vulnerability that builds into triumphant celebration. Listeners experience cathartic release through the final drop, where individual struggle transforms into collective victory cry. It's simultaneously introspective and communal—deeply personal yet universally relatable to anyone who's fought their way up from nothing.
