[Intro]
[live crowd murmur
Whistles]
Fatima oo
Fatima (hey!)
Fatima oo
Fatima (woah!)
Lion King Fatima (ah!)
Everybody say "ru!" (RU!)
[Verse 1]
She enter place like holiday
Ankara bright like summer day
Gold on her neck
Fire in her eyes
Every step dey magnetize
She no rush
She just glide
All the queens dem by her side
If you see her when she spin
You go know say she go win
[Chorus]
Lion King Fatima
Ru-ru-ru (ru!)
See the crown when she dey pass through (ah!)
When she move
We follow too
We follow too
We follow too (hey!)
Lion King Fatima
Ru-ru-ru (ru!)
Raise your voice
Make the ground shake you (ah!)
If you know say you get that groove
Shout "Fatima!" we go answer "ru!" (RU!)
[Verse 2]
DJ turn up
Floor dey burn
Sweat for face but we no done
She dey lead us like parade
Every waist dey catch the wave
Phone light up
Camera flash
But she dance
She no dey fash
She just laugh
"make everybody free"
Say
"Na joy carry me"
[Chorus]
Lion King Fatima
Ru-ru-ru (ru!)
See the crown when she dey pass through (ah!)
When she move
We follow too
We follow too
We follow too (hey!)
Lion King Fatima
Ru-ru-ru (ru!)
Raise your voice
Make the ground shake you (ah!)
If you know say you get that groove
Shout "Fatima!" we go answer "ru!" (RU!)

One more time for the queen tonight
Everybody say "ru!" (RU!)
音樂風格
High-energy Afropop at 118 BPM, West African highlife guitars in bright interlocking riffs, busy talking drums and shakers, round bass that pushes the groove. Powerful female lead on top, call-and-response male group chants and crowd shouts, big stacked harmonies on the hook. Brass stabs lift the chorus, short synth hooks fill the gaps between vocals, arrangement explodes into a final chant-outro., highlife, afrobeat
