King of Procrastination Songtext
von Beautiful Nubia and the Roots Renaissance Band

Don′t give up on me now baby
I don dey come o, I don dey come o
Don't give up on me now
I′m on my way
Don't give up on me now

All of my life I don dey try o
To be the best I can be
To be somebody's hero
But I am the king of procrastination o
And now that you come my way
I really see o
Your beauty glows in the dark
My former life was a deep hole
You are the queen of illumination, oh yeah

So here I stand
Wash me woman, make me clean
Put a new song in my mouth

Don′t give up on me now


Time has passed again
I′m in the shadows
The darkness comes anew
My lonely feet grow heavy
These are the days of tribulation, oh yeah

But then I hear your voice calling out
You beat a path through the jungle
You've got a smile on your face
You′re reaching out an invitation, oh yeah

But girl I'm afraid
My past will never let me be
They say old habits die hard

Don′t give up on me now

Don't give up on me now baby
I don dey come o, I don dey come o
Don′t give up on me now
I'm on my way
Don't give up on me now


Today we meet as planned at the crossroads
I′ve got my offering ready
I go down on my knees o
And plead with the lord of confusion, oh yeah
But you, you have eyes only for me o
Your plate is full of riches
You treat me like a hero
You feed me love and devotion, oh yeah

Yes queen, I am ready
Hold me woman, make me strong
We′ll be together through the storm

Don't give up on me now

I′m going around
Moving back and forth
Seeking answers where there is none
Going back and forth
Moving up and down

Seeking answers where there is none
Said I'm going, going back and forth
I′m going around
Moving up and down
Seeking answers, answers where there is none
Said I'm moving back and forth and I′m going up and down
