Lyrics

Mmm-mm, mm
Hmm, mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm

(TSB)

Chale, see as e dey play
I’m still working real hard on a Saturday
My future, I don see from a mile away
No be you go tell me how I go party
J’aye nlo oh
Me say, fast on a holiday
‘Cause all work and no play go dey dull me
You know say minimum wage no be my money (yeah)
And, any little small change wey fi come my way (what’s else?)
(Uhn), j’aye nlo oh

Never thought I would make it
I used to dream for better days
Nsem no dooso, I just wanna get away
Who really cares what a hater gotta say?
Life gave me lemons, I turned them to lemonades, like (wooh)
Money we dey chase
Deep thoughts, madwen mu do se Kevin Gates (ahn)
Thank you God for your compassion and all your grace
Heaven is the peace, in your heart it’s not a place

I gave it my all (naa)
I slept on the floor (ahn)
I take risk anytime I step outta the door (wooh)
Se me twe na doe no mba aa then I’m breakin’ the law (yes)
Anythin’ about the money I’m gettin’ involved (naa)
They told me not to dream big
This thing is bigger than dreams
Ten storey buildin’, we talkin’ a couple beams (uh)
Tough skin, go get the money by any means (naa)
Me ma mo motivation, manba se me post memes

Time changes from Subin to Abbey Road (uh)
Who dey want am, e be hin de carry load (yes)
Sika no aba, magye diamond, asan agye gold (naa)
Ghetto boy with some money (hmm-mm)
You know how the story goes, ah (yeah)

Chale, see as e dey play
I’m still working real hard on a Saturday
My future, I don see from a mile away
No be you go tell me how I go party
J’aye nlo oh
Me say, fast on a holiday
‘Cause all work and no play go dey dull me
You know say minimum wage no be my money (naa)
And, any little small change wey fi come my way (what’s else?)
(Uhn), j’aye nlo oh

I was destined to make it whether you hate it or love it (naa)
Yes, I’m blessed, nothin’ you can do about it (wooh)
And, we know empty barrels are always the loudest
Got myself a Lamborghini, it’s droppin’ in August
Used to hang around the corner 2003 (wooh)
Me tua me dues, nti na yaa menya love on the street (naa)
I remember how a homie dey sleep in the heat
Now, they gotta pay me just to sleep in a beautiful suite (naa)
I thought I told you I was gonna be one of the best (wooh)
I spoke to B High, “can I get J on the text?” (naa)

That’s some boss and talk and you can hate on the flex (naa)
I don’t need a middle man ’cause I pay all the checks (ahn)
Oh, this is heaven to me, I came from nothin’ (wooh)
All this money you see came from rappin’ (naa)
Everybody follow my lead ’cause I ain’t stoppin’ (naa)
Mhen, they say they harder than me?
Them homiea cappin’
And hey, everythin’ is okay
On the jet to L.A
Kasa Ntem ’cause I’m late (naa)

And, I’m still gettin’ paid (ahn)
What’s the point when you hate (wooh)
‘Cause I got food on the plate? (yes)
Think you made a mistake (naa)
Industry half ye fake, uhn
Money over bi- (what’s else?)
Got the Mercedes for the Mrs. (naa)
Dead wounds but you can see the stitches
Ain’t no genie grantin’ all your wishes
You gotta work

Chale, see as e dey play (naa)
I’m still working real hard on a Saturday
My future, I don see from a mile away (‘way)
No be you go tell me how I go party (‘ty)
J’aye nlo oh
Me say, fast on a holiday (‘ay)
‘Cause all work and no play go dey dull me (go dey dull me)
You know say minimum wage no be my money (‘ney)
And, any little small change wey fi come my way (way)
J’aye nlo oh

You foh see as e dey play (play)
I’m still working real hard on a Saturday (‘day)
My future, I don see from a mile away (‘way)
No be you go tell me how I go party (‘ty)
J’aye nlo oh
Me say, fast on a holiday (‘ay)
‘Cause all work and no play go dey dull me (go dey dull me)
You know say minimum wage no be my money (‘ney)
And, any little small change wey fi come my way (way)
J’aye nlo oh (eh-eh)
