Whether you like am or not
Young Shall Grow
Better fill them with love
Then, them go know
In this life you don’t give up
Even when you’re low
If you fall get back up
Young Shall Grow
Trying to be better than I’ve ever been
But seem to be loosing that patience
Not wait until directly affected
Before I start retaliating
Deceptive lifestyles thinking you’re free
When really these policies enslave majority
Gentrification applied with authority
Making you look in the mirror, no be for me
Uncompromised Integrity
Easy to believe the hands that feed
Hypocrisy na democracy
You pull the trigger like am nobody
Injustice for broken families
Handle the heat like a fulani
Na by force to get the degree
No be for everybody
Challenge yourself with every opportunity
Get used to the scrutiny
Choose to do things differently
Never loose your identity
Fools that tend to be sheep
End up like shish
So it’s important to teach
Nothing but love on the streets
So our pickin go see
The nature of the beast
Krooo
Go read your book, everyday no be Facebook
Snapping selfies on the gram,
Communicate, you no fit do you dey tweet
No fit show face on the street
Open your mind, wetin you seek you go find
You be yourself all the time
Your state of mind
Go bring you light you go shine
Stay focusing on your grind
No, no, no,no,
One day go be yeah, yeah, yeah
Give it a try no dey fear
If they decline, make you no stop try again
You no go gain with no pain
Stay in your lane
Make you know watch wetin dey do
Nobody can do you like you
Set your own pace
Run your own race, relax
Everything go dey dey dey cool
No worry ‘bout them
You live that life that you chose
Nobody knows tomorrow, the young shall grow
Nah true no be so
We need to bless em’ from head to the toe
Give them direction so they go now
How to manoeuvre when they get old
Not how to dey pose
This kind matter nah open and close, open and close
My mama, my papa
Dem born me London
Dem say Tumi, no forget where you come from
I carry my load, to another station
My mama, my papa
Dem born me London
Dem say Tumi, no forget where you come from
I carry my load, to another nation
