Mad

We no go fall
We ah go go, we go win
You go know
All of the blessings fall on my yard
Blessings dey for my yard, ahn-ahn
And like that
E go be, e go see, you go feel am
Because the blessings fall on my yard
Blessings fall on my yard, yard, yard, yard

That's why I sip my alcohol (ewe)
I don't wanna reason bad things no more (oh no)
I don't wanna go back to where I dey before
Make nobody stress me no disturb me jor, jor, jor

I sip my alcohol (ewe)
I don't wanna reason bad things no more (oh no)
I don't wanna go back to where I dey before
Make nobody stress me no disturb me jor, jor, jor

Oh na, na, na

Too many distractions
Too many problem
I finna run away but na who go solve them?
Too many badman and not enough friends

Lord save me, don't wanna lose my conscience
I just wanna dance under the sunset
Make nobody stop my enjoyment oh, mhm (no, no, no)

That's why I sip my alcohol (ewe)
