Lyrics
I've been out here in lasgidi I've been on a 9-5
Gotta go and get it cause it makes me feel alive
Swear my soul is liberated that's the reason that I thrive
The dream is on repeat like every time I close my eyes
And I cannot let it die the pen's an AK45
Struggle in my city I'm just grateful to survive
Legend in the making they can't stop it if they tried
I don rapped and graduated mahn the man is certified swear the man is certified
Ain't no telling who gon survive the strife
My mood switches like Lagos traffic lights
All this hustle we dey hustle with no end in sight
Getting layovers while Buhari still connecting flights
Still we rise
Playing a game of snakes and ladders
And know the flow dey hot like Alausa rice ofada
With the top-down middle finger up like fuck their fathers
And know we down to ride
Even if say them ban Okadas or kekenapeps
Smoking Gbana to relieve the stress
Cause every time I tune into the press
I just see my people more depressed
Broken spirit they ain't touching my soul
Tryna cut through roundabouts but the city's taking its toll
If found return to Lagos
These Buhari times the sequel
One umbrella PDP but still power divides the people
I've been out here in lasgidi I've been on a 9-5
Gotta go and get it cause it makes me feel alive
Swear my soul is liberated that's the reason that I thrive
The dream is on repeat like every time I close my eyes
And I cannot let it die the pen's an AK45
Struggle in my city I'm just grateful to survive
Legend in the making they can't stop it if they tried
I don rapped and graduated yo the girl is certified yo the girl is certified
Down but we tryna get a leg up
You can never understand another person's struggle
If you never worked a day in life then you can shut up
Funny how a person can be hungry and still fed up
I'm searching for a high
Taking up the time
Traffic on for miles I'm just passing by
Spending up and over all my earnings
I'm slowing down to check the latest crash before my eyes
Used to the heat up in my building
Thoughts of chasing dreams
To start to run shit in Adidas
Caught up in the hustle
While I'm tryna burst through ceilings
Hard to pick a pillar
When there's no space left for leaning
Judging colors looking greener from the other side
But the over-sabi here depicts the grind
Living heavy on the mind to make the money now
Been busy I'm still receiving calls up on my other line
Aiit Hello
Fuck your peace
Where's my peace
Fuck your ease
Where's my ease
Tried to please
I remember when I was
At your knees
Begging please
So tell me this
Why should I suddenly
Set you free
Cause you begged and you bleed
Thought it was only me
But Angie teased
And you did
So don't you see
I've been out here in lasgidi I've been on a 9-5
Gotta go and get it cause it makes me feel alive
Swear my soul is liberated that's the reason that I thrive
The dream is on repeat like every time I close my eyes
And I cannot let it die the pen's an AK45
Struggle in my city I'm just grateful to survive
Legend in the making they can't stop it if they tried
I don rapped and graduated mahn the man is certified swear the man is certified
