‘On Your Knees’ featuring Funbi and Blink starts with a soft voice singing, now Ikon is here, his voice hyper as he sings about the importance of prayer just before you hit the streets to hustle.
The production here is excellent, Ikon’s delivery together with the lyricism brought by Blink and Funbi...
Okay
Get on your knees before you start the day
You should get on your knees before you start the day
Get up
Get on your knees before you start the day
You should get on your knees before you start the day
Get on your knees
Before you get up
You have to
Get on your knees before you stand up
Even as a baby way before you stand up
You have to listen to the word before you can talk baby
So if you understand put your hands up
Im telling you
The key to this life is easy if you believe
You know what you want
But you need what you need
Like a seed
You put it in the ground and trust
You gotta get on down to get up
You see my brother life is moving to fast
And you wanna slow down
So you better get on your knees
You know now
This whole time i thought it was fine to just grind
But i realise that it was a lie
So this is for my people in the city wey dey hustle all day
Get on your knees before you start the day
If you dey hustle hustle hustle hustle
You should get on your knees before you start the day
Get on your knees before you get up
I i i i ikon
And this is for my people in the city wey dey hustle all day
Get on your knees before you start the day
If you dey hustle hustle hustle hustle
You should get on your knees before you start the day
Get on your knees before you get up
I i i i ikon
Get on your knees before you stand up
Even as a baby way before you stand up
Im not a baby
You have to listen to the word before you can talk baby
So if you understand put your hands up
Im telling you the key to this life is easy if you believe
My heart and my mind are open to recieve
The words the good lord has shown for me to see
The truth in all things
He sowed in me the seed to speak
Back then i thought that it was me
I thought i was a g
I was lost
I mean this whole time
I was blind but now that i can see
I am really ready and hungry to live
So this is for my people in the city wey dey hustle all day
Get on your knees before you start the day
If you dey hustle hustle hustle hustle
You should get on your knees before you start the day
Get on your knees before you get up
I i i i ikon
And this is for my people in the city wey dey hustle all day
Get on your knees before you start the day
If you dey hustle hustle hustle hustle
You should get on your knees before you start the day
Get on your knees before you get up
I i i i ikon
I used to get up and go
Brush my teeth take a shower
Wear clothes before i get on the road
Put food in my belly but no food in my soul
Now ive grown to know say that one na miss road
Now i get on my knees when i wake up in the momo
Say our father and hail mary before i commot
Ready for any test the world might bring
Supernatural confidence when im doing my thing
My guy
Its no secret in life that you must get on your knees
Before you can touch the sky
My guy
Its no secret in life that you must get on your knees
To overcome and survive
I know im a sinner
But i dont want to go on without you
I know im a sinner
But i dont want to go on if you ain't here with me
Oh lord you save
You save
Oh lord you save me
And thats a word for the wise
Dont to get to get on your knees
Before you close your eyes
Good night
I need you lord
I need you lord
Every step of the way
My fellow Nigerians
Get on your knees before you start the day
I would like to draw all attention of citizens
Get on your knees before you start the day
