[Chorus]
Mo dupẹ f’ẹlẹda mi o
You don’t have to remind me
Wetin I use my eye see o
Put the trauma behind me
It’s a jungle where I’m from
Some make it and some don’t
What a legacy I built
I got wiser on my own
[Verse 1]
But I told y’all
Many many times that I move with the mind of a soldier
Real talk
I cover my ground, my style never been for the weak
Don’t wear my heart on my sleeve, I wear it on a white tee
Who has the confidence to wear it like me?
You know how me I do my thing mo sa faye
No be today I start am I no be JJC
[Pre-Chorus]
I made it this far
Risk all of that for my wrist audemars
Oh yeah, made it this far
Bọbọ no go die you go see me by force
[Chorus]
Mo dupẹ f’ẹlẹda mi o
You don’t have to remind me
Wetin I use my eye see o
Put the trauma behind me
It’s a jungle where I’m from
Some make it and some don’t
What a legacy I built
I got wiser on my own (Wiser on my own)
