intro

(Finish him!)

intro

Is this the motherf- thanks I get?
For making my people proud every chance I get? (Yeah)
It's okay, I get (Cole World)

verse

This Naija, no love
Only Jah know where it started from
OluwaBurna still apply pressure
Sneak up on you on a silent one
Ooh-ooh, who be that person?
I showed you how to really do this thing
OluwaBurna na the blueprint of course
And I gave you Afrofusion
No words can describe all of my waka waka, no place I no go to
If e dey hurt you, na like this I dey hustle

chorus

E go dey your mind woto woto, Ọlọhun
Passa passa, Ọlọhun
Sare sare, Ọlọhun
Ki ya ma sa, Ọlọhun
Laye laye, Ọlọhun
Laye, laye, Ọlọhun-hun-hun-hun

chorus

You go dey reason am rough, rough, Ọlọhun
Passa passa, Ọlọhun
Sare sare, Ọlọhun
Ki ya ma sa, Ọlọhun
Soro soro, Ọlọhun
Laye, laye, Ọlọhun-hun-hun-hun
Is this the motherf- thanks I get?

verse

Too many people no dey fear God
What you think He created hell for?
Mankind so jealous
Wetin dem no know dem dey tell us, tell us
Walai mii fẹ mọ
OluwaBurna moti jẹ lọ
My fall is unheard of
You never hear them say I fell off, fell off

chorus

E go dey your mind woto woto, Ọlọhun
Passa passa, Ọlọhun
Sare sare, Ọlọhun
Ki ya ma sa, Ọlọhun
Laye laye, Ọlọhun
Laye laye, Ọlọhun-hun-hun-hun

chorus

You go dey reason am rough, rough, Ọlọhun

Is this the motherf- thanks I get?

bridge

You say my mama dance for Fela
You say I no get baby mama
You say that I'm cancelled again
You say I shoot pesin for Cubana (yeah)
Because I wan collect pesin woman (that's how they act, right?)
Is this the motherf- thanks I get?
For making my people proud every chance I get?

verse

Burna and me, been runnin' this shit for eternity
I fathered a couple of styles, I'm takin' paternity leave
Permanently, they hate, now I'm brushin' the dirt off my sleeve
Steadily talkin' Ms to me, it's like I'm learnin' to read
Sounded it out, takin' my time, countin' it out, slowly
Dust collectin' on the Rollie, me and these beats is holy
Matrimony, feelin' like Axel Foleg
In Beverly Hills, coppin' whatever I feel

verse

Cole and Burna, Shaq and Kobe
Winnin' a ring, then we gon' repeat and three-peat
Them nerds hate, they seat geeks
They peepin' us on the low, we like the cheat sheet
Get paid for phrases, I don't believe in free speech
I said it, I meant it, no take backs
I don't even need the receipts, so please miss me with the PC
I be in NYC on a bike with the hood up like I'm E.T
These rappers ain't like me, I'm knee-deep in the concrete
Forever cemented, don't you ever forget it

chorus

E go dey your mind woto woto, Ọlọhun
Passa passa, Ọlọhun
Sare sare, Ọlọhun
Ki ya ma sa, Ọlọhun
Laye laye, Ọlọhun
Laye laye, Ọlọhun-hun-hun-hun

chorus

You go dey reason am rough, rough, Ọlọhun
Passa passa, Ọlọhun
Sare sare, Ọlọhun
Ki ya ma sa, Ọlọhun
Soro soro, Ọlọhun
Laye laye, Ọlọhun-hun-hun-hun
Is this the motherf- thanks I get?

outro

Burna, I see you
You got the whole world on smash right now
This whole shit is yours, forever how long you want it
Know what I mean?
Writer(s): Jonathan Lee, Jermaine L. Cole, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, Ras Kassa Amha Shaka Alexander, Ashton Sellers
