[Verse 1: A.K.O]
Bienvenue au Cameroun, (Kamer)
On va tous die père
Avec les poches vides et les poches pleines
Les filles d'aujourd'hui portent les mini-jupes
Les gars portent les slims et les "taille-basse"
Même si c'est propre, même si c'est sale (Soulevez)
On voit ton caleçon, Ouais c'est la classe
A la mode, c'est le style, le swagg, dis-donc laisse ça!
Tu ignores quoi? En mode kamer (Kamer)
J'ai le foléré à l'oeil, je n'ai rien à perdre
Tout le monde a le swagg dans mon bled
Que tu sois nguémé ou qu'tu sois prêt
Authentique ou tchoronko, dis donc laisse ça!
Saute tu calles en l'air, je te gère pas
Piercings? Tatouages? Ce sont mes dough, je vais bock ça!
[Chorus: A.K.O & Idyll]
Tu school à la Catho? (C'est le Swaaag)
Fustel ou Savio? (C'est le Swaaag)
Tu tchop les dough du school? (C'est le Swaaag)
Tu go en mbeng toutes les vacances? (C'est le Swaaag)
Tu stay à Bonanjo? (C'est le Swaaag)
Priso ou Bastos? (C'est le Swaaag)
Tu go tchop au dakéré? (C'est le Swaaag)
Tu traines avec les bobo'(C'est le Swaaag)
[Verse 2: A.K.O]
J'ai ma nouvelle Gucci
Made in Ndokotti
Socatur, je go à Bonabéri
J'ai mis mon pari, Eto'o marque aujourd'hui
Si je win je buy ma pension lundi
Si ça ndem ça a ndem, ce n'est pas grave
Y a les bobo' qui stay aux marécages
Mais quelle image! Jean Lambert Nang
Quand tu te fais taxer par un Nanga
Un ancien père yo' prend ta petite
Tu as ndem ta passion pour le défi
En boite de nuit
Tu fous le feu, les dough sont bolè, tu joues les pompiers
Wèèèèè le ventre et le bas-ventre
La situation des jeunes me fait mal au ventre
Tu veux le swag? Tu veux voir le swag? C'est le swag que tu veux?
Voilà le swaag...
[Chorus: A.K.O & Idyll]
[Bridge: A.K.O & Idyll]
Ne viens pas mal, je ne te gère pas
Mes ways et mon style ne te concerne pas
Je suis en mode swagg et bien c'est comme ça
La la la la! La la la la!
[Chorus: A.K.O & Idyll]

[Intro:]
Yesso ! Yesso ! (Ako arré kan nju, Ako arré) (x2)
Yesso !
[Verse 1: A.K.O]
Yo! I write songs that the hood could relate to
Drop verbs that the kids could reflect to
Forfiling dreams good kids go mad to
Rose on the concret that the roots wanna get through,
On the platform, summit is my review
Trynna rap sense, money na dey issue
So hot to hold so cold to handle
"Its like a B-Day, make a wish blow the candles"
The motherland is all red
Everybody needs a piece of his own bread
So i gotta get the keys
Lay down a legady
Drive to eternity
Thats my own trend.
I see a million in every penny i make
See a breakthrough the hard ways that i gotta take
Moltivated by the heart breaks that i get
Victory is all i need so i gotta go get it nowwww !
[Chorus: Ewube]
Heading to victory , no retire
Enduring the injuries through the wire
We never gonna stop till we higher
And victory is gonna be our next shoot !
[Verse 2: A.K.O]
Blood of a king through the vains of a slaves
Like a strange fruit, am not the son of the soil
From grass to grace, from the grace to the grave, bleeding sugar cain blood for the tracks you enjoy
Fame brings love that will leave you soon, the only "fan" I had is still spinning in my room
Shout out to Samy, Damien and the crew, KGX1 and all we been through
All that glitters ain't gold but thanks for supporting from day go
The road to success is very narrow no cross no crown like Yesu Christo (yeah !)
Big dreams in the heart of a small guy
Nightmares I was still under God's eye too many wounds but i will not cry
Cause life is a game where we living to die (die die)
[Bridge 1: A.K.O]
Mandem a kong mé tetep, Etar Mandem a kong me tetep (x3)
[Bridge 2: Ewube]
We still on the road,
We never gonna stop,
Na God we di trust ma brother, sisters no be luck
You feeling like me put ya "V" in di air (in di airrrrr).
[Chorus: Ewube]

Verse 1:
Jealousy na poor, jalousie c'est ngueme
If you don boulot you go tchop am, the tongoh go poor
Même au village on va seulement faire péter les scores
Jeux de reins comme Roger Milla, ça sort comme ça sort
Fais ton balle à terre, la mater à fait son balle à terre
Voilà le pater qui veut mettre tous ses do à terre
Tchai ! Small ngon' dey ré di find money

Hook (x2)
Verse 2 :
Il y a le eru mais tout le monde veut le piment (on veut le piment!)

All man wan njoka (njoka), all man wan faro faro (farooo)

Hook (x2)
Bridge 1 :
On veut buy le school, mais toi tu veux brésilienne ?
Le gars a ses nga mais il veut pendre la mienne !
Time wey money dey, on dit que c'est le famla

Il y a trop de licenciés qui ne font que la moto
L'Afrique c'est l'avenir, on n'est suffer suffer
Je suis dans le wanda, tout est wanda wanda
Bridge 2 :
Wandafut ! Wanda - wandafut !
Tapez les mains !
Mbamba môô ! Eh bougez les reins !

Manor e no easy all thing na clando
Scratch ya eyes the whole world don be na clando
The game needs change, I enter like na 10 pong
The good die young, R.I.P to Landrie and Kalvo
A.N.G be cookin' this beat na five years ago
And this year, they say ma hustle be na bravo
Fufu And Eru Gang (gang), unitary slang (slang)
Comme Njie Clinton c'est from que j'étais au banc
Depuis la fermeture de Codilait, je ne donne plus la bière
Le foléré ou même le Nido
Dans mon bled, réussir est spirituel
Parifoot, Tiercé, all man di speculate
If ya bill over high you fit regulate
If Pays di over worry, massa immigrate
Cause when arata chop e no di die again
All man di wise brain no man no want try again
[Chorus: A.K.O]
Manor e no easy all thing na clando
If you don hammer dat means sey u di choko?

Etangti moh man dem, the lord is on my side
You claim to be the best, i go be ya tongue tight

Chaii ! Ask Mr.Doc and Don Killeone
A.K.O's flow got the value of a trillion
Am aiming for the max
I still put skills on the tracks
Never settle for the minimum
(Woouuh!!! )
It's a special delivery
And babylon no fit cut me off my victory
Manor na our time for chop
Sep' dey put sand sand for ma garri i go chop flop
Même devant les Mbere kaki je ne mouille pas la barbe
Molla je mouille le maillot
Muna tété adopté par la street, même en kwatta style je suis trop Don, demande à Spido !
[Chorus: A.K.O]
Manor e no easy all thing na clando
If you don hammer dat means sey u di choko?

[Bridge]
Ça c'est pour les frères dans le désert
Au front et même dans tous les pays en guerre
Les sans papiers, ceux qui n'ont rien à faire
Vous êtes dans mes prières (Vous êtes dans mes prières)
Ça c'est pour les sœurs dans le désert
Au front et même dans tous les pays en guerre
Les sans papiers, celles qui n'ont rien à faire
Vous êtes dans mes prières (Vous êtes dans mes prières)
[Verse 3: A.K.O]
Même dans la piaule de God, il y a des clando
On est tous chiba, moralité zero !
Je ne suis parfait, nooon !
Oh God help me, je ndem trop, demandez à ma ex go
Mais one day, one day, ça va changer
Big up a tous ceux qui élèvent le niveau
Depuis l'époque de Big Boss, Terror et Benjo
J'envoie le Shalom à tous mes guerriers du ghetto !
[Chorus: A.K.O]
Manor e no easy all thing na clando
If you don hammer dat means sey u di choko?

My homie girl Cheetah got that purple swagg on, purple swagg on
A.K.O soldier (I tought I told ya...)
VERSE 1:
It's been a long time comin' but I been here before
Back to share a piece of my mind with all of y'all
Still chasin' the wind, hoping I hit the mall
Wishing that I break forth with my back against the wall
Heart broken, I was a heartbreaker too (Yes)
Preach violence, just to see the fans act fool (Yes)
Wise words gotten when I dropped out of school
Wasted like a junky in the swimming pool
Feel my flow and please don't feel sorry for me
I'm like a prophet confirming the prophecy
It's only when you fall that you really rise again
Drown in my sins, God carry me again
The heat is on, I gotta be the master chef
Hell's kitchen, cuz the world is like the devil's breath
They say the Word of God is the only alabi left
Some call it "Summer Time", I call it choking the industry to def
HOOK:
Summer time, Summer grind
This ain't paradise but we wanna shine
We can't knock the hustle but we need a dime
We be laughin' and cryin' at the same time
We got that purple swagg, KGX1 is the tag my homie
It's that Summer time, yeah
It's that Summer time (x2)
VERSE 2:
Diamond in the dirt (dirt), I wasn't bright enough ('nough)
Sell dreams that we can't afford to leave enough ('nough)
Man is the cause of his curse so carry your cross
All about bread, reality hurts like hernia
Fame is on the run like dem athlets in Kenya
We make it rain but it's drought in Somalia
And make peace through war like in Syria
The world is upside down, you gotta be an acrobate
Crime pays but I only wanna sell rimes
Close my eyes, see myself in the Summer Time
The game is ugly, mama gave me a Bible
Told me to stay true, like these verses in the Bible
The truth is painful, at the very low cost
Like a candle, I'm burning this track for those lost
American dreamers in an african nightmare
Summer time is here, so you better get your own share
HOOK (x2)

AKO truly got guts. After the release of his street album The Prologue in 2009, he went lowkey to craft his flow and grow his skills as a full artist in all genres. In 2016, five years later, he’s back and here to blow our minds with his new EP Man Of Gut, a warning to his full length album set to be released by the year 2017.
The EP presents 6 dope tracks on which the KGX1's finest offered an explicit diversity in his rap style, switching through English, French, Pidgin and Cameroonian vernacular from different tribes. Gotta admit that the way he manipulates his voice, flow and delivery on each beat is crazily catchy !
In this piece, the artist uses wordplay and lyrical scheming to paint verbal images of our daily lives and drop words. The MC jumps from deep wise content to easy-to-go verses and hooks to turn up on with such an amazing ease. The tight work of each producer transported A.K.O on a different level each time. The smooth chronology between the tracks, from the grim in Manor to the blues in Summer Time makes each song to easily sink in and be appreciated by the listener.
Brothers and sisters, relax, listen and enjoy the groove...
Tracklist :
1 - Manor ( produced by Dj Knory)
2 - $w@g ( produced by Cheetah)
3 - Victory feat Ewube ( produced by PhilJohn)
4 - Wandafut ( produced by NC Brown)
5 - Clando ( produced by A.N.G)
6 - Summer Times ( produced by Cheetah)
