Intro

Man, I’ve been bad since ’97, I never cared ’bout the devil

Hmm-hmm

Man, I’ve been bad since ’97, I never cared ’bout the devil

Since ’17, I’ve been smoking hot like a kettle

Anytime I know it’s ‘less you know, I never settle

Get it running on a track, I deserve a medal

Or maybe some diamonds, shining on my bezel

I dey on my level, man, I’m still a rebel (I am on my level; I am still a rebel.)

Who you wan dey underrate? Are you even normal? (Who do you want to underrate? Are you even normal?)

Man, I’m on a different lane, not to keep it formal

I dey craze, you know (I am crazy, you know.)

And just so you know

If I think you’re moving funny, I’ll be Sam Loco

‘Cause my music is one thing that I take personal

Don’t compare me to nobody, I dey special, you know (Don’t compare me to anybody, I am special, you know.)

On a verse, you know

It’s impossible

Say you hear I no deliver; must be dumb, you know (That you heard that I didn’t deliver. It must be dumb, you know.)

Fit be say I really no wan do the song, you know (It is possible I didn’t want to do the son, you know.)

Or person dey for my back pointing a gun, you know (Or someone at the back was pointing the gun at me.)

Chorus

Mehn, I dey hot (Guy, I am hot.)

Ori mi gbona bi ina suya (My head is hot like Suya fire.)

The level I dey Burj Khalifa (The level I am on is like Burj Khalifa.)

E si ma ri ran wo, my n#gga (There is still more for you to see, my n#gga.)

I fit to put that on my mother (I can put that on my mother.)

Your money can’t impress my n#ggas

Na if e touch my hand, I go feel am (If it touches my hand, I will feel it.)

No need for talking plenty (No need to talk excessively.)

Sit down, watch as we dey do for setting, yeah (Sit, and watch how we do on the setting yeah.)
