Lyrics
Me I wanna live my life
Me I wanna live life on the low low ride solo
Only me and money collabo
Emi omo Bello no dey wo ago alago
I dey para gan, omolope para gan

Raise the roof drop top
Kini ki jo jojojo
She drop it low low Lobatan

Won ko mi je rush rush
The way you move that body on me
You unleash the dragon
