May Owoyele - Let It Flow

We as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets
And let them know
We as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets
And let them know
I'm gon' ask mama to tell me Ijapa Tiroko
I'm gonna mark your face so we don't forget the logo
Where adire makers
Don't tell me they now wear polos
Grandpa had two hoes
I have my own too
They like colognes
All our farmers are far from the farm
We import from Togo
My top was authorized to be tucked in from Porto Novo
Are we borderline stupid
Or ain't bothered by future photos
Even this verse was imported
All our customs are so close to death
We as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important,
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets and let them know
We as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets and let them know
I'm gonna find a way to represent us with all my verse
All the fakeness they bringing
I resent it with all my heart
We sold our forefathers
They brought four fathers, a priest
And sat on our freedom
They didn't even remember to bring a couch
I'm gonna make Ifa priests new detective
That one's apart
You don't grab what I'm saying
It's ironic you fall my hand
How can I now make a point or point you out
Get out my house
This toilet ain't strong enough, you got me so pissed
I'm screaming out that we as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets
And let them know
We as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets
And let them know
We as Nigerians, we love to bring an idea
We love to love and hate
We love the pure, dirty careers
We love to do it partial
Like half the cake is my dear
We love to run it like deers
We love run up with antelopes
Cheat a Cheetah, 419
On Savannahs with garri and
Amala, eba and tea bags
Alomo Orijin Seamans
Party clubbing, see passes Ronaldo Messi green grasses
Asses, relapses pastors counselling masses
More relapses
With all these shit up our asses
And violence our catharsis
We love to be loved by the world
Almost love it more than dancing
My colleagues look for a Grammy
Ain't bad if I get one
But its a local award, dammit
Sarkodie too might get headies
They won't make the room we live
It ain't unfair if we dig
It's their own culture too
Just that it went global like Wizkid
It's a whole packaging deal
Maybe we'll do the same too
Maybe learn to be grateful
Maybe learn to be faithful to us cos
We as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets
And let them know
We as Nigerians
We love the good life we let it flow
Our culture is old and boring
That's what you tell me yo
But o wa important
You can't tell me to let it go
I'm gonna dramatize all the secrets and let them know
We let them know
We let them know
