Story Lyrics By Barry Jhay

Hmm, oh, oh-oh
Ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah
For you-you

Me I get one ′tory me I want to talk oh (me I want to talk oh-ayy)
Back in day when me and my mama dey suffer oh (I been dey suffer)
People talk shit, dem talk say I no go make am, oh (ewo lon soh?)
But see me now, I’m a shiny star, you know, yeah-ayy

Kekere la tin m′oba (abeg, no listen to nobody)
Irukere owo l’afin mo ijoye (as I no depend on nobody)
Oba ni mi l’aye arami oh, everybody na king for hin day
Everybody na king for hin day-ayy-ayy (ayy-ayy, ayy-oh-oh)

Say, pekele pekele, arugbo je gbese
T′oba l′omo, omo e l’oma san
T′oba l’omo, omo e l′oma san
Pekele pekele, arugbo je gbese
T’oba l′omo, omo e l’oma san
Iyen omo t’oba pa ishu wa′le
Omo e l′oma san

It’s been a long time comin′, long time comin’
Searchin′ for me for pandemic
And me lookin’ for money since I was 16
Now, you think that I be jokin′
But, I no get am for things wey dey been think
Money matter be the main thing
Live my life, live my life like king
King, king wey I be, ah

Awon kan w’aye, won wa p’owo
Awon kan w′aye, won wa shishee (won wa shishee)
Awon kan shishee fun onishee
Ori mi, maje n shishee fun onishee
Awon kan w′aye lati gb’owo
Awon kan w′aye lati j’aiye
Ko ma-ma s′aye aiye k’aye
Na money gan-gan be the main aiye, you know

(Na wetin you know, you know)
(Na wetin you know, you know)
Ye, wetin you no know, you no know

Pekele pekele, arugbo je gbese
T′oba l’omo, omo e l’oma san
(Iyen omo t′oba pa ishu wa′le)
T’oba l′omo, omo e l’oma san
Pekele pekele, arugbo je gbese
T′oba l’omo, omo e l′oma san
(Iyen omo t’oba pa ishu wa’le)

Iwo lo mo igba toh ma
T′oba ja′ra e, o ma ji, ji
T’oba lo sun, o ma ku (o ma ku danu)
Iwo l′oma ja’ra e, paddie oh
You better wise up, paddie oh

T′oba ja’ra e, o ma ji, ji
T′oba lo sun, o ma ku
Iwo l’oma ja’ra e, paddie oh
You better wise up, paddie oh, ahh
