Sarz, Asake, Wizkid, and Skillibeng “Getting Paid” lyrics focus on financial achievement. Discover the song’s thematic direction in their new collaboration.
“Getting Paid” lyrics center on themes of financial success and material achievement, with each artist contributing their perspective on wealth accumulation. The track likely structures verses around different aspects of economic empowerment, from Asake’s Nigerian street narratives to Wizkid’s international success references and Skillibeng’s dancehall-inflected boasts. This thematic direction aligns with Sarz’s production history on similarly focused tracks like “Money” with Lojay. The collaboration marks the first lyrical intersection between these artists despite their previous individual work on financial empowerment themes in African popular music.

Lyrics
E lo je k’ori yin pe
E lo je k’ori yin pe
E lo je k’ori yin pe
Je k’ori yin pe
E lo je k’ori yin pe
Ah, ah, aah
Let me tell you sey you no go fit stand one minute when we come back around
Feel it, move up your body right now
Mami, don’t ever worry
Fake love no dey impress, I got vision
Burn dem, free dem, dem never listen
We took a million and flip the precision
Yeah
Give me something wey I no fit see anywhere
They wanna try but dem no fit see me for there
You’re messing with a lion
Big shark bigger than a titan
I need a hundred percent, not dividend
They wanna know what’s the reason for the violence
I get big league long time, the money energize
And every time I’m shining, one of a kind
I know most days dem dey try take me down
But they move too slow, but man no dey around
E lo je k’ori yin pe
E lo je k’ori yin pe
E lo je k’ori yin pe
Je k’ori yin pe
E lo je k’ori yin pe
Ah, ah, aah
Man we’re getting the pay, pay

Ah, ah, aah
Stacking paper

Bad man, chill off, me nah reaper
Stacking cash by pom we a wey cash
Carry glock round di town with a laser
Navigator, took them round di place gan
Ghetto yute with a lot of determination
A fi make songs a mi occupation
To every yutee when you na try make it a fi stay strong
You know di road wicked, but we built fi dis
Big room spinnin mm
King be the city when you serious you richest
And we got the pretty girls too
