Lagos Nights Don't Sleep – Kojo & Zanele

Verse

Gold dust on the speakers, four a.m. glow

Log drum in my chest and my heels wanna go

Palm wine on your collar, sweat dripping slow

Third bottle down and we still steal the show

Security counting money by the door

Saxophone still crying out for more

Your hand on my waist like you owned the floor

Lagos never blinks, we been here before

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the sky turning orange on the wall?

Nobody's leaving, nobody at all

Hold up, hold up, watch the night stall

Chorus

Lagos nights don't sleep, don't sleep

Sun coming up but we still on our feet

Amapiano heartbeat, keep the fire deep

Lagos nights don't sleep, don't sleep

Verse

Okada lights flashing past the mango tree

Bass in the concrete, running through me

Aunty selling akara, steam and the heat

Dancing on the rooftop where the two worlds meet

Champagne going warm but we don't care

Braids and gold chains catching morning air

City wide awake underneath the glare

Nobody's tired, everybody's there

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the sky turning orange on the wall?

Nobody's leaving, nobody at all

Hold up, hold up, watch the night stall

Chorus

Lagos nights don't sleep, don't sleep

Sun coming up but we still on our feet

Amapiano heartbeat, keep the fire deep

Lagos nights don't sleep, don't sleep

Bridge

Look at the bridge turn gold, turn gold

Look at the crowd still whole, still whole

We came for the night, found the sunrise instead

Nobody talking about going to bed

Chorus

Lagos nights don't sleep, don't sleep

Sun coming up but we still on our feet

Amapiano heartbeat, keep the fire deep

Lagos nights don't sleep, don't sleep
