Introduction of the artist's name (JayGlitz)
JayGlitz oh
-Say you only know what i let you know
Claiming control over what information is shared with others
Wahala no dey show for face oh
Assuring that troubles don't manifest visibly
Believe me when am saying this
Requesting belief in personal statements
Mehn say i've been through alot uh oh
Expressing that the artist has faced significant challenges
Say i sell my phone to record song o
Highlighting past struggles, selling personal belongings for music
Still dey beg you make i perform for show
-Now story don change i don dey blow
Noting a positive change in circumstances, success in music
Even with your money i fit no show
Even with wealth, the artist may choose not to show off
Man I thank God I Godly
Expressing gratitude and contentment
And say God no ungodly
Acknowledging that God is not unrighteous
Oluwa na him comfort me
God's comfort in the face of criticism or attack
When this people dey bombard me
-Men I thank God I Godly
Reiteration of gratitude and contentment
Say God no ungodly
Emphasizing God's righteousness
Oluwa na him comfort me
Continued reliance on God's comfort amid challenges
When this people dey bombard me

Metaphorically discussing life's challenges and perseverance
No mean say my beans no go don last last
-Who go make am no be by who first start

-Me I no fit drag shine
Declining to compete for attention or success
Oluwa na him be my Kanji Dam
Recognizing God as a protective force
