[Intro]
Mehn, don’t ever ever listen to anything anybody has to say about you mehn
You can never please anybody you know (Darey)
They say you’re fat, you’re too tall, you’re too lazy, you’re too this, you’re too that
Mehn, just do your own thing, do your own thing
[Verse 1]
Everybody said that I couldn't make it (original Naija)
They said that I would fall (for where?)
Everytime they set a record I would break it (like record)
Then I walked tall (I'm a champion)
[Pre-Chorus]
I will live and I will not die
I am Nigerian, I no go fit lie (I can't lie about that mehn)
Survival is the name of thе game
So please lеave me, I'm sane (sane)
So many things wanna crush me
Everybody wan dey toss me (throw you around the place)
While I tell dem say (you can't do that)
Na my time to shine (the limelight)
I will live and I will not die
I am Nigerian, I no go fit lie
Survival is the name of the game
So please leave me, I'm sane (sane)
[Chorus]
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
[Repeat Verse 1]
Everybody said that I couldn't make it (make it)
They said that I would fall (fall)
Everytime they set a record I would break it (break it)
Then I walked tall (tall)
[Pre-Chorus]
I will live and I will not die (not die)
I am Nigerian, I no go fit lie (no go fit lie)
Survival is the name of the game
So please leave me, I'm sane
So many things wanna crush me (crush me)
Everybody wan dey toss me
While I tell dem say
Na my time to shine
I will live and I will not die
I am Nigerian, I no go fit lie
Survival is the name of the game
So please leave me, I'm sane (sane)
[Verse 2]
I represent Naija
And I'm black in the blood
Tell Jay-Z and Nas to get like off of my throne
150 million people, how do you think I come here alone
I got the arewa, bakasi and the OPC with me
I cannot be faster than Eedris kidnapping
I can see faster than Femi Kayode can deprive the queen
I'm not a rapper, I’m an artist
And my paintbrush is lyrics
No wonder we the happiest people
We play football, listen to Darey and all our videos have got a sequel
Whether you dance Galala or you’re doing the Swo
Naija Naija my niggie for sheezy we too much jor
[Chorus]
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
Leave me alone (na my life I dey live)
Help sing the song (na my life I dey live)
You gonna make it (yes o, yes o)
You gonna break it (yes o, yes o)
