When I was a kid
Mama called me down
And said my baby sit
I want to hear her words
So I get a seat
And as she clears her throat to speak
My heart Dey beat anxiously
Cause I want to hear
What my mama wants to say
And then her voice came
And said boy remember this day
Remember everyday is not an Holiday
You got to hustle real hard
Before them go pay
Boo shé laaro
Ashé lale, Oro agba
Niisin mi n sheshé
Min laagun cause mo tii dagba
Responsibilities tii kan mi
Cause mo tii dagba
And i Dey hustle I Dey grind
Mi ni kpe mi o ni gba
It's overwhelming mehn
Oo n jami Lara jé
Aimoye lonely nights
Ti mi'n ni kan ti ma jé
But I gat to hustle hard
Kaye mi ma bajé

Eku tii fe jé
Cause Mo ti wase wase wase
Oti suuu mi
Bata mi ti je labé
Awon girls tiii fi buu mi
Still I can't give up cause if I do
Won ma buu mi
And as it is, I want to repay
Nkan te' she fun mi
Gbogbo asho, gbogbo bata
How she'd die for my matter
How she'd look at me and smile
And say I'm coming for you later
All her clothes I'd scatter
All the vases I'd shatter
Sugbon maami ooo biinu mehn
Maami I love you
Now I ain't that kid anymore
You don't bathe me anymore
You don't feed me anymore
You don't clothe me anymore
I'm that man you want me to be
I ain't that baby anymore
I'm out here alone
Cause you can't be here anymore
Maami maami
Iya yiii tiii poju
Omiije nbo looju mi
When I see these troubles
Although I'm now grown
I'm wishing I'm still that kid
My soul sink
So I lift my voice and sing like
To ba jepe wipe mo shii wa lomode e
Tell me wetin concern me
Kii lo kan mi oo
With all these palaver
(All these wahala)
All these wahala
(Alright)
From Sunday to Saturday
Mogbe ooooo
Mom told me
To be aware that I'm rare
Mom told me to
Face those things that I fear
Mom told me that fear isn't real
Ko exists, it only play pranks with My heart so I should dare!
Gbogbo nkan ti maami
Sofun mi pata Ni mo she
But even at my best
Awon eyan shii'n poshe
People talk me, gossip and cuss
Kini ma shey?
Challenge po to jé pe
Even my mouth no fit pray!
So I keep asking myself questions like
Shey mi nikan ni?
Am I the only one striving hard to Get this money?
Am I the only one trying to live that life of honey?
But I'm wrong, cause when I looked Back, more are coming!
Then it came back to me
That wish to be a kid
Wanna quit being a man
But how will my family feed?
If I fail to be a legend
What will I tell my kids?
I don't want them to live
The kind of life that I had lived.
If to say I still be baby
(If to say I still be baby)
Ki lo kan mi oo (Ki lo kan mi oo )
Pelu gbogbo wahala
(Pelu gbogbo wahala)
Wey me I Dey face
(Wey me i dey face)
Everyday!
To ba jepe wipe mo shii wa lomode
(Wa lomode)
Tell me wetting concern me
(Wetin concern me)
Kiii lo kan mi oo (Kiii lo kan mi oo)
With all these palaver
(With all these palaver)
And all these wahala
From Sunday to Saturday
(Sunday to Saturday)
Mogbe ooooo
Then I realized no one cares
Until you make it
Cakes don't just appear
Until you bake it
Dreams don't get realized
Until you chase it
My fears won't disappear
Until I faced it
So mo dokun shokoto mi
Ko le tight daada
I faced my hustle squarely
Ko le pay daada
Commit all my ways to God
Ko le straight daada
So maami ma le kpe mi
Lómó daada
Cause I realized
It ain't easy to be a man
Kin se she ojo kan
That quest to be a man
Though I can't stop the wishes
To be that boy mama pampered back Then but still I got to be a man
So I can't forget that time
When I was younger
Life was real sweet
All thanks to my mother
Each and everyday as
I'm growing bigger
The hustle continues
Shoutout to the hunger
Ebi o le kpa mi
That's why I'm from the streets
And this one goes out
To all the hustlers in the streets
E ranti kpe
No surrender and no retreat!
And e ma gbagbe kpe
It's Mr Nicetunes on the beat
And I'm Benos Jay
