Lyrics
Omo when nothing Dey
When there's nothing present
Only mama stood by me
Only my mother stood by me
Even lojo satide(Saturday)
Even on Saturdays
She Dey always pray for me
She consistently prayed for me
She say make I do my thing my way
She advised me to follow my path
Pray make sapa no go spoil my face
Pray that financial difficulties won't affect my appearance
Emi o de mo'gba to wo ma de
I don't understand the depth of what I wear
I can't tell the time Abi tell the day
I can't discern time or even the day
Orilabi ya'to si owo labi
From a lower status to a higher one
Them say make I pray
I was advised to pray for my needs
For the things I need
Recognize your successes
See as you Dey win
Observe how you're succeeding
Brother count your blessings
If you see me succeed, applaud me
If you see me win
I don't understand deceit
Make you clap for me
I don't understand manipulation
E'mi o mo lagbaja
Only money can take me places
Mi o mo tamedo
Go to places unfamiliar
Only money fit to carry me go
But she says, "My child, don't be disgraced"
Go places where I don't know
This is the instruction to remain honorable
(Where I don't know)
Financial difficulties won't mar your appearance
But she say omo mi kolawole
See, I grew up in challenging circumstances
Loseyi wa kola wole oo
With dried meat as a luxury
Sapa no go scatter your face o ehyy eh
Even if you're successful, will you assist me?
And she say omo mi kolawole
My mother's secrets are hidden
Loseyi wa kolawole oo
My earnings go towards admiration
Sapa no go scatter your face o
Earning money deserves praise
See omo I grew up grew up in the trenches
Traveling, trying to acquire wealth
Mama Ati baba ma lo to mi
Looking at transportation
Okele gbigbe pelu dry meat
To ensure I see wealth
Even if you get Shey you go help me
Money is essential, my friend
Omo iyami ironu o papo
I don't understand the depth of my mother's concern
Lola sati dollar mi mapo
My possessions are significant to me
Getting money owo shi'n yabo
Earning money deserves admiration
You go know say ajala na fineboy
One realizes that traveling is for the attractive ones
See I've been on the road
Striving for financial gain
Tryna get the Doe
Looking at commercial vehicles or cars
Mo wo maruwa or motor
For me to see wealth
Ki emi sha ti ri ego
Money is the essence, my friend
Owo ma ni koko my padi
Yeah yeah
Yeh yeeeeh
I don't understand deceit
E'mi o mo lagbaja
I don't understand manipulation
Mi o mo tamedo
Only money can take me places
Only money fit to carry me go
Go to places unfamiliar
Go places where I don't know
But she says, "My child, don't be disgraced"
(Where I don't know)
This is the instruction to remain honorable
But she say omo mi kolawole
Financial difficulties won't mar your appearance
Loseyi wa kola wole oo
See, I grew up in challenging circumstances
Sapa no go scatter your face o ehyy eh
With dried meat as a luxury
And she say omo mi kolawole
Even if you're successful, will you assist me?
