Chilling With the Big Boys

Chilling with the big boys

My brother my blood 
There is no quick road to success
There is no short root to life 
Except you want to die young 
And land your life in endless troubles
Bro no be only you dem born poor
Me too I follow

You want to be a big boy 
But you no want work 
You want drive Lamborghini
But you no want sweat for the money 
Brother monkey better pass you oh 
Cos you be mumu but you think 
Say you wise 
The man way get money 
No Make ham in one day 
Those that Influence you 
Are living a fake life in social media
They are not that rich as they look
My Brother grow get sense 
Because I no fit shout oh 
Now na your mama head you want use 
Your girlfriend way dey love you 
Now na her you want kill blow 
You want to turn kidnapper cos you want blow
Brother am sure that juju man
No get money pass dangote cement 
How poor man go do juju for Poor man 
Am sure Dem no be Jesus way turn 
Water to wine 
Brother use your head 
Use your brain 
There is no quick way to success
You have to work your way out 


My brother my blood 
There is no quick road to success
There is no short root to life 
Except you want to die young 
And land your life in endless troubles
Bro no be only you dem born poor
Me too I follow 


You want to chill with the big boys
Make them they hail you too
Make ameno dey play 
With lost of champagne bottles
Coming to your table 
You want to show off too 
Say you belong 
Brother no body send you messages oh 
If you die we go chop rice drink better 
Beer 
Even chop pepper soup join ham
If we dey cry we go dey cry well 
E no matter if the cry reach our mind 
Depending on how many drink we Shayo
So brother grow get sense 
Live your live normally
Take your risk personally
Follow your better mind 
Be positive and strong 
Compet with yourself 
Not with any one 
Cos this life short oh 


My brother my blood 
There is no quick road to success
There is no short root to life 
Except you want to die young 
And land your life in endless troubles
Bro no be only you dem born poor
Me too I follow
