Yeah, tailor-made, one of one, I was made for the run
Way ahead of the curve
In 2021, I dey for 2026
In 2026, I dey for where no one fit reach
My picture dey deceive, ah, ’cause we don see things
Guess that’s a blessing in itself
Had a pain that I felt, I go get am off my chest
But for now, I dey on trip, searching for my inner peace

Boat cruise, ten bad ones, and with the homies, it’s going
Life na just one, we go chop am, it’s going
The gbedu too sure, we go drop am, it’s going
Say my body too much, it’s going, it’s going

On soft, we dey ball, no be Tanko
Yippie-yah, yippie-yah, yippie-yah, yo
Rain, rain, go away, yeah
