Fave asks the simple yet loaded question “Will you sing for me?” on “S.M.K”, which stands for the Yoruba phrase “Sho ma korin.” She’s already given her soul and spirit to this relationship, and now she needs reassurance that it’s mutual. The dreamy R&B and Afropop blend creates the perfect backdrop for her vulnerability as she questions whether her partner needs grand gestures to believe her love is real. “S.M.K” from her 2022 EP “Riddim 5” is Fave pleading for honest reciprocation and clear signs of commitment.

[Intro]
Niphkeys
(Tell me how you really feel)
[Verse 1]
You see me now I want something
'Cause the vision is clear
Hmm hmm hmm hmm
You see me now I’m fighting sleep
'Cause you’re not right here
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, are you waiting for writings on the wall before you believe me?
Tell me, are you waiting for mountains to fall before you believe me?
Tell me, are you waiting for me to write you a beautiful song?
I’ll write you a beautiful song
I’ll write you a beautiful song
[Chorus]
Sho ma korin mi, my baby
Mo ma korin fun ę o
Shey you go sing my baby ye
Sho ma korin mi, my baby
Mo ma korin fun ę o
Ma korin for my baby ye
[Verse 2]
Ayy ayy ayy ayy ayy
I tell you you’re my numero-uno
You know you got fingers in my bone, you’re the fire in my stove
I'm giving you my soul
I’m giving you my spirit
And I don’t want anyone to know what I know
That you’re the best in the world
That you’re the best in the world
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, are you waiting for writings on the wall before you believe me?
Tell me, are you waiting for mountains to fall before you believe me?
Tell me, are you waiting for me to write you a beautiful song?
I’ll write you a beautiful song
I’ll write you a beautiful song
[Chorus]
Sho ma korin mi, my baby
Mo ma korin fun ę o
Shey you go sing my baby ye
Sho ma korin mi, ny baby
Mo ma korin fun ę o
Ma korin for my baby ye
[Outro]
