Lyrics

You should have let me know by now

You should have informed me earlier

Are you with it are you down?

Are you involved or committed?

I'm headed for the top right now

I'm aiming for the highest point at this moment

I'm trying to make it pop right now whether you like it or not

I'm striving to make a big impact right now, regardless of your opinion

Bantu to the moma, one, two, three years that's my countdown

Referencing the Bantu migration and counting down three years

Represent NIgeria you know the capital, my shit is phenomenal

Representing Nigeria; claiming excellence in his work

It's funny this music industry could be man

Reflecting on the music industry and its complexities

I mean just melodies and beats right?

It primarily consists of tunes and rhythms, superficially

Maybe a video or a record deal

Elements like music videos or a contract are significant

But staying independent kind of make you real (Ohhhh)

Staying independent defines authenticity

Songs that I made all alone in my bedroom

His earlier creations were crafted alone in his room

Chasing girls the only thing I was into

He was focused solely on pursuing romantic interests

Still the same but just a little bit more

He's essentially the same person but has evolved slightly

I'm in touch with my personal

He's connected with his personal experiences

I'm in touch with my spiritual

He's in tune with his spiritual side

I'm the same just a bit fine tuned

He's refined himself a bit, becoming better

I know myself I'm chasing something higher than usual

He's aware he's chasing something beyond the ordinary

If you no try then you no go know

If you don't attempt, you won't discover

I'm ashamed of my fears but I work on it

He feels ashamed of his fears but actively works on overcoming them

I'm trying to be the best out here, alright now

He's striving to excel in his field


Said i'm trying to be the best out here alright, Oh

Reiteration of his aim to be the best

Trying to be best out here

Continued pursuit of excellence

But In the city man they're dogs out here

He acknowledges the challenges in the city


Said i'm trying to be the best out here

Reiteration of striving for excellence

Tryna be the best out here

Reiteration of his pursuit of being the best

In the city man they're dogs out here

Reiterating the challenges in the city

Said i'm trying to be the best out here

Continued emphasis on trying to excel

Tryna be the best out here

Continued pursuit of being the best

In the city man they're dogs out here

Reinforcing the challenges in the city


Oh oh, In the FCT oh yeah

Referencing the Federal Capital Territory and its challenges

In the city man they're dogs out here

Highlighting the difficulties faced in the city

Said in the city man they're dogs out here

Reiterating the presence of challenges in the city

Don't let them break you

Encouragement not to let external factors discourage


Optimum esse, leave it up to me

Latin phrase meaning "to be the best"; asserting his capability

You know I be working 2a in the morning visioning bout stages

Expressing working late at night, envisioning success

Performing I'm zoning

Imagining himself performing on stages, deeply focused
