Lyrics

I remember when people downgrade

I recall a time when people belittled me

Dem tell me say I no go ever ever upgrade

They said I would never, ever progress

But d matter don change dem Dey find me

But the situation has changed, and they are now seeking me

From ojuelegba de costain

From Ojuelegba to Costain

I no be politician weh go start to campaign

I am not a politician who begins a campaign

But d matter don change dem Dey find me

But the situation has changed, and they are now seeking me

So no go give up my brother

So, do not give up, my brother

Sebi na god Dey bless man

Since God blesses man

I go dey my lane Me go wait my own time

I will stay in my lane and wait for my time

No go envy person instead Me go work hard

Do not envy others; instead, I will work hard

I be good boy but as I b good boy man I no Dey hear word

I am a good boy, but as a good boy, I do not heed advice

Now I got eyes on me

Now I have eyes on me

Me Dey pray to jah make dem no lie on me

I pray to God that they do not lie about me

Oriburuku make e dey far from me

Evil should stay far away from me

Na where man Dey work man go chop my g

Where a man works is where he will reap the reward

Baba shanu mii

Bless me, Father
