Black Sherif So It Goes Lyrics
“So It Goes”
I’ll be working all this summer
Moving from place to place
From plane to plane
Spreading my word out and shit
I’ll be doing this for a while
Searching a better place for my life
Cause where I’m from no resting
All we had was nothing yeh
Say yɛwɔ zero and blessings
But I had blood in my eyes
Fire on my hands
Survival plans full in my head
I was getting tired
But you make me wanna trap again
And she said
If you see the light remember
That I was with you
When you were lost and lonely lover
Don’t forget about me so soon
If you see the light remember
That I was with you
When you were lost and lonely lover
Don’t forget about me so soon
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
And so it goes
See this life is a lonely road
Everyday hustle for the dough
I’m on the road
Put my body, mind and my soul
That’s why me I head to the top
Cause man I’ve been working
Nobody fit stop me
See many people talk
Many people do
Many people yarn
Many people try
But I keep walking
Nothing fit disturb me
Ma pami oh
And I will never rest
Till I see my mama smiling
VVS diamonds dancing oh
We’re up forever more
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
I’m tryna put you in designers
Fly you Bahamas, Maldives, Jamaica
Take you everywhere I go
Show you Mama Afrika from Ghana to Bafana
So send a likkle prayer (send a likkle prayer)
And please try to say less (ugh girl shut up)
Cause nobody really cares like that (nobody, nobody)
Nobody gives a fuck aya (nobody gives a fuck aya)
But them all ready to listen (everybody)
Don’t let our love be entertainment (don’t let our love be entertainment)
To all these modafuckers (to all these modafuckers)
On my life they don’t deserve it (On my life they don’t deserve it)
And she said
If you see the light remember
That I was with you
When you were lost and lonely lover
Don’t forget about me so soon
If you see the light remember
That I was with you
When you were lost and lonely lover
Don’t forget about me so soon
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Ah so it go
Black Sherif is having a huge year, and So It Goes is a big reason why. The track just landed a Song of the Year nomination at AFRIMMA 2026. AfrobeatsGlobal has the lyrics and the story behind the song.
The Meaning Behind So It Goes

So It Goes features Nigerian star Fireboy DML, blending Ghanaian and Nigerian sounds on one track. The song comes from Black Sherif’s album IRONBOY, also nominated for Album of the Year at AFRIMMA 2026.
Black Sherif has built his reputation on emotionally raw songwriting. So It Goes continues that pattern, pairing his rap-forward delivery with Fireboy’s melodic touch.
The collaboration works because both artists bring different textures to the same energy. That contrast is part of why the song has resonated so widely across two fan bases.
Black Sherif’s Big AFRIMMA 2026 Run

Beyond So It Goes, Black Sherif picked up nominations for Best Male West Africa, Best Male Rap Act, and Artist of the Year. He led Ghana’s entire 21 nomination haul at AFRIMMA 2026.
His momentum has also carried into the 2026 Ghana Music Awards, where his catalog kept showing up across multiple categories.

In addition, our Fireboy DML collaboration roundup covers his other cross-border features this year. AfrobeatsGlobal will be watching how the AFRIMMA voting plays out over the coming weeks.
