Verse 1 (Davido)

Papa told me keep your head up high (My dad told me to keep my head up)

Even though your body full of bite marks from all dem canines (Even though your body is full of bite marks from all the canines.)

Steady moving, I’m just living life

And so many people in my business, so many shooking eyes

Pre-chorus

My fears are easier to face now (face now), in the front of my haters

Steady chasing my paper

Sipping Martel with no chaser

My steps are guided by Jehovah

And forty-four looking over

Dem no fit stop us, I know that (They can’t stop us.)

And every show is a shutdown

Ah ah

Chorus

‘Cause I stand Strong

O.B.O no go minus (O.B.O won’t minus/degrade.)

O.B.O elemi nine plus (O.B.O has got nine lives)

Big fish flow like the ocean oh 

Omo I stand Strong (Child/My person, I am standing strong)

Verse 2 (Davido)

Look in my еyes

You see the money and the fame, it’s necessary

I really don’t know what’s going on in my life

In my life (What’s going on in my life)

No pleasure comes from pain

No money falls like rain

This thing dey burst my brain (This bursts my brain.)

But it’s all love

Pre-chorus (Davido)

My fears are easier to face now, in the front of my haters

Steady chasing my paper

Sipping Martel with no chaser

My steps are guided by Jehovah

And my mama looking over

Yes we rise by lifting others

And that is the law of the lifetime
