I don tire oh, ea non blo sékpé
A non blo yéli-yéli
Ovi agnon wé fo dé
Ea non blo sékpé, a non blo yéli-yéli
Ovi agnon wé fo dé (I don tire oh)
Medaho, ovi ayon wé fodé
Yokpo tché, ovi ayon wé fodé
Dekpé non, ovi ayon wé fodé
Dekpé non, ovi ayon wé fodé
Eh-eh, dignity, can save you or kill you
Dignity, I wanna hold on to you
Dignity, can hurt you or heal you
Dignity, I wanna hold on to you
Where you dey yesterday
When the gunman shoot men down?
No retreat, no surrender
If them push you, no fall down
Many come, many go
We no dey sleep, we dey for road
We come in peace
Not in pieces
O yeah, yeah, oga
Respect is reciprocal, is reciprocal
Respect is reciprocal
My oga, oh-oh-oh
Respect is reciprocal, is reciprocal
Respect is reciprocal
Sọrọ sókè
Wèrè dey disguise (wèrè dey disguise)
I don tire, tire oh
As I dey look your eyes (I dey look your eyes)
Giant of Africa
When we life be better?
You promise me tomorrow
But nobody sees tomorrow (I don't see tomorrow)
I don tire oh (tire, tire, tire for the lamba)
I don tire oh (tire, tire, why you too dey lie?)
I don tire oh (tire, tire, tire for the lamba)
I don tire oh (tire, tire, why you too dey lie?)
My oga, respect is reciprocal, is reciprocal
Respect is reciprocal
My oga, oh-oh-oh
Respect is reciprocal, is reciprocal
Respect is reciprocal
Where you dey yesterday
When the gunman shoot men down?
No retreat, no surrender
If dem push you, no fall down
Many come, many go
We no dey sleep, we dey for road
We come in peace
Not in pieces
O yeah, yeah, oga
A glimpse of hope in humanity
The last frontier of our own sanity
Spread your love to all equally
And plant the seeds of radical beauty
The wind will blow, a light will show
Real beauty on a brand-new day
The wind will blow, a light will show
Real beauty on a brand-new day
It will glow on a brand-new day
A clear way on a brand-new day
It will glow on a brand-new day
We'll get down on a brand-new day
Walk with your head straight (respect is reciprocal) (is reciprocal)
Stand with your head straight (respect is reciprocal)
Walk with your head straight (respect is reciprocal) (is reciprocal)
Stand with your head straight (respect is reciprocal)
(Awesome)
