Lyrics
Alot of pain in my soul
Alot of things you don't know
Every time God makes a way
Satan dey for the door
It's like what more can I say
I've been so stuck in my ways
That's the reason I'm feeling guilty every time that I pray
Why should God answer my prayers when I'm out here sinning
Why do I get jealous when I see my people winning
See back in high school omo I was always bad at maths
But 10 years later now I be so skilled with compositions
I hope my people listen
I know some people wey dey hawk for the streets
At the end of every day can barely stand on their feet
But wetin man go do
No other option get through the day
They make two thousand a week talkless of minimum wage
Damn
Every other day them dey para for the authority
But what do you expect when you're looked down as a minority
In your own country
Food for thoughts but we going hungry
Cause like a trip down to Apapa dawg the road's bumpy
Word to the people call it viewers discretion
Half my generation lost other half dealing with depression
Diamond in the rough I turned out well with all the pressure dawg
Life is a teacher is but you out here skipping lessons my guy
City's cold dawg we tired of all these rainy days
Weather the storm young soldier gotta make a way
Momma told me trying times you gotta keep the faith
Close my eyes mahn I'm just praying up for better days
Jah let your light shine on me
No matter how dark it might seem to be
As we dey hustle every day
We pray make the hustle dey pay
We be working hard for our better days
Conversations with momma she's droppings gems now
We used to never have these convos
But I'm glad she understands that I'm a man now
Emotions affi pen down
Young Wole Soyinka I never put the pen down
Can't ignore the fact that my parents are getting older
And time is of the essence cause death is getting closer
Every move gotta be major
Taste gotta be savoured
Way ahead of my peers I reaped the fruits of my labour
Overwhelmed Lagos life is a circus
Treating lives like it's worthless
Barely scratching the surface
Make or break and I'm yet to fulfil my purpose
Verses come with delivery like mountain of fire service my guy
City's cold dawg we tired of all these rainy days
Weather the storm young soldier gotta make a way
Momma told me trying times you gotta keep the faith
Close my eyes mahn I'm just praying up for better days
Jah let your light shine on me
No matter how dark it might seem to be
As we dey hustle every day
We pray make the hustle dey pay
We be working hard for our better days
Jah let your light shine on me
No matter how dark it might seem to be
As we dey hustle every day
We pray make the hustle dey pay
We be working hard for our better days
Said I wanna see your light shine in my life everywhere that I go
And everywhere that I be
Let me see you let your ah ahh
As we dey hustle every day
We pray make the hustle dey pay
We be working hard for the better days
