[Intro]
Ogbe
[Hook]
My pain is unlimited ọ mụwa maa ebe ọ na-afụ m ụfụ
Alụgom ọlụ, nyem my dividend ọsịsọ ije dị m na-ụkwụ
Mpa, ịfe ịmenwu can tell, Mna alịgo enu ka onye na-ete nkwu (iyoo)
Na-ịme class room anọm na-azụ, mana abia na-ego anọm na-ịru
[Verse 1]
Waa
Olisa ga agbalụm aka ebe
Selling my market ka afia eke
Iyoo ga egosi gi na-ọna eme
Adim too vigilant ka onye nche
Some men nyelụ aka mgbe fa enwelo afa bu ife chọzị ka mda (chai)
Ife ọbụna mme fa na-ekpe m ịkpe, ndi lawyer ịkpeama (fu ya)
Mụwa achọlọ okwu, ife mụwa na-achọkwa bu ego ndị ọcha
Ejịm olisa, ejịm ikenga, mna ama onunu ka Highlander
Paid my dues, akwụgo m ụgwọ, ready for war ka Vladimir Putin
Mee fasting, atagom ulo, ịfe anyị na-eme kịta bukwa cooking
Know one thing, agbagom mbo, don’t hate me aloba I’m chosen
Na me dey show them how e dey be, Pioneer trailblazer ka Fela Kuti
Obi dị m na-azụ ka mortuary attendant
Burial my dad i was low on ịsị Benji, afulọm assistance (o wute m)
The journey from zero to hero bukwa a very long distance
Ask my bro, my work rate is very high I put in the c in cash
[Hook]
My pain is unlimited ọ mụwa maa ebe ọ na-afụ m ụfụ
Alụgom ọlụ, nyem my dividend ọsịsọ ije dị m na-ụkwụ
Mpa, ịfe ịmenwu can tell, mna alịgo enu ka onye na-ete nkwu (iyoo)
Na-ịme class room anọm na-azụ, mana abia na-ego anọm na-ịru
[Verse 2]
Enwem 2 v on my neck, mmanụ VVS (sure)
Any boy or girl too na Anambra kilibu ABS
Pilot 1 on seat Flying na-enu, no turbulence (ehh)
Why you dey sue me to court, adilọm guilty no evidence
Goal m na-aba ka penalty Lampard
Onye ori naba, adilọm aba one chance
Invested in many plot of land
Motor mụ abatago, ọ nọkwa na car stand
Okwa ịsị kote ebu, obulu ya naba
Onye jonsing akpọna m ka ụtaba
Mmelim na-agba ndi ilo ka ukpaka, some Men na akọ asịlị ka aunty maa wrapper

Amam the taste of failure and the feeling of alịlị
Ngozi m ga eye very soon, ọdị na-ime ite di na-ọkụ ka akịdị
Oge ụfọdụ ịke na agwụ m, mana ofu mmụọ na-agwa m kwechịlị (chịlị)
Stacking up my timbers ka ndi building material ogidi
Bro, maybe death is easy because this life is very hard
Billionaire club I am qualified, Inna the lungu i am verified
Adịlọ edose mmili na nkata, chim ekwena kam gbada agbada
Eburum nkpam bia na-obi gị, chim ekwena kam gbalu aka na

Na-ịme class room anọm na-azụ, mana abia na-ego anọm na-ịru
