Lyrics
Ke fetsa tsoga Lagos a ke ko Kasi
Ke fetsa ho kadima tosso for Di pachi
Mashalla we survived these hardships
But inshalla they gone say we popping
[?]
Ngwanyana wena o maka
O motwaka
Kao tlatsa nkao fasa
Ngwanyana wena o maka
Oomotwaka
Kao tlatsa nkao fasa
Celebrate
Give dem a reason to celebrate
Blow out the candles we share the cake o
Make all my people dem elevate so
Heavyweight I
Ali Bombaye
On my grown man shit since underage
Taste the sweet success that hunger made
Ask me if I’m ever going back
No way!
No brother
Messi
No 10 on the back of jersey
How we win at home and away on the journey
Made a big bag need to call my attorney
On God
Revival season
Me I just dey cook the rhymes with reason
Everywhere choke na why they’re wheezing
Here’s another toast to life increasing
Ngwanyana wena o maka
O motwaka
Kao tlatsa nkao fasa
Ngwanyana wena o maka
Oomotwaka
Kao tlatsa nkao fasa
Up in here
Omo kilo n pop ni be
Yeah they say they want smoke
But they unprepared
It’s about time
And I’ve come to share
When it’s time to resign I need company shares
You should know
It’s LADIPOE
Who else got drip as sick as the antidote
Who else make your girl slip off her pantyhose
With a core fanbase built on organic growth
Actually
Ain’t nobody in the chat can chat to me
When it comes to rap face facts I’m faculty
Body every track cos I aced anatomy
Still a science student recognize the mastery
Hey chauffeur
Eyes on the road you know that we ain’t sober
Tryna count stacks in the back of the Range
You think it’s game time I think it’s game over
Ngwanyana wena o maka
O motwaka
Kao tlatsa nkao fasa
Ngwanyana wena o maka
Oomotwaka
Kao tlatsa nkao fasa
