A tree grew in Lagos

[Intro: Bunmiafrica]
A tree grew in the city
Stemming out of the blindness of past generations into
Non-comforming indifference
Branches rising from age old traditions mixed with new school additions
Strong wits, creative abilities enough to put millenials out of white-collar misery
Powering through with that Alternative dignity, This is our definition of originality

[Verse 1: Paybac Iboro]
This is who I gotta be
Just to find release
Went to war with me
Just to gain some inner peace
Ekwensu a thief
He know failing isn't cheap
Gotta pay the price
They say freedom isn't free
Told myself i can't quit Man
That shit for the weak
Figured out the puzzle
Then I found the main piece
Saw the bigger picture
Frame of mind got face lifts
I don't know how we could grow if we don't know what change is
If you got a lotta goals u gotta always play for keeps
Gotta be the man but still some days I pray and weep
She used to call me everyday
But I ain't spoke to her in weeks
Miss our conversations
Was the therapy I need
And I Tried to move on but saw her face when I would sleep
I feel like some people they get printed on your soul I swear
But I had to write my name in stone yeah
You just never know how it could go yeah
Oh yeah

Omo I'm so excited
Everybody's invited
They tell me pressure makes diamonds
I had to dig deep to find it
I find it
