ALAYE Lyrics

Wey you

See him face

Alaye

Yeye

Yeye boy wey I like

It is well, it is well

You hear

E go better

We be indigene here

Then you migrate go there

But if you look am well

We be citizens of this universe

Pressure on my shoulder

On what we can do for the Africa

They wonder how I can deliver

In our hands they put their daughters

We are men finally and that's without questions

Then I lost my job in this last hour

12 days before we celebrate kwanza

Then I broke my leg

Broke my hand

But what broke my heart

Was the things I couldn't bring back

Like a youth who died in the wrong combat

Well, anyways

I haven't lost my life

I hope you haven't lost your style

This Dream of tomorrow

Where you go burst out from your clean motor

Looking fresh with your Moro Moro

Guy man wey gallant

Na you I go follow

Or

We fit add am that thing we talk in secret

Like change the country to our benefit

Don't diss your own family in the public

I know, I understand it's a burden

But don't let it be about the money

You are my buddy

When I die I wanna come back

And live in your body

Ahh, Alaye

E get like 10 ways to make this money

I go share with you like eight

You fit put like number nine by yourself

Read within the lines

Alaye

Cuz from house na Inheritance

That na one

Number two I go give am to you like a gift

Three, I go share am

Share am to you, na your right

Alaye

No let them let you

Feel like say you no follow

Put you on number four

Labour, labour, labour

Wetin you dey work for

Without right pay, Alaye

You fit borrow like a credit

That na number five

From your family or your country

Alaye make you invest

To realise your own potential

Alaye

Number six na production

You need to create something meaningful

Wey people go like, make them buy am

Alaye make you no shame

When things bad for you

Make you ask, make you beg

From people wey you trust

Oh Alaye

Make you no end for number seven

That na stealing

Stealing

Alaye

Unless they come treat you like say you no be anybody

Alaye

Show your power

Meet them for their secretariat

Pursue them from house accordingly

See if you go fit build a house from a tree

Alaye

Work work work

Alaye

Without certificate

Na how you go take get

Your own share of the cake

E dey pain me shall

Say the one person wey I trust die

Feel like say me I disappoint am

How I want take explain toram

Alaye

I'm not a good adviser

Me, I live like a pariah

My life is sage

But in order to succeed

You must first guide your speech

Don't be arrogant like an imperialist

Alaye pause

Take am slow slow

No use all your impulse

Just think for like 13 seconds

Biaka nuali biahi nunkpoma

Do your best to cool your temper

You no know this matter

Say the economy scatter

E soak on all side like bad weather

So we dey hang on corner like beer parlour

Alaye

Na my prayer

Make you live larger

Marry your own wife

And finally make you chop this life

As long as you desire

Whenever we call you go answer

Retire from your suffer

Bring smile to your mama

And reconcile with your brother

I no go ever be your competition

Instead na steady consultation

Alaye

Make we form a corporation

I no go impose my will without your permission

I loyal to you

I prostrate

I shun for you sir

I trust your strength

Make we put am together

Alaye

Be my brother
