On the beat yes o yea
On the beat it’s Davido and Super C
Back when I was broke yo
Nobody wanted to jonze yo
All the girls they tell me no no
Because I no get e motor
All the same people don they hail me
All the marketers want to pay me
All the club DJs don dey play me
Now dey don dey follow
Everybody wan snap photo
Looking like I just hit the lotto
And you know that my neck is froze yo
And I am popping Rose
Every night na money we dey trowey
Balling from Monday to Sunday

Awon boys don hammer
By just being an MC
After doing what needed to be done
They say I ball too much like testes
Recognize a boss when you see one
Not in the same tax bracket that you belong like the next the
To all the haters who exchanges things small or less
My money they say cut like money fresh not matching Mohammed
I mean Benjamins whole ‘nother class not talking about the Benz I am in
See me sharing money like communion to last my flow too tight like the lungs have asthma
Back when I was broke yo
Nobody wanted to jonze yo
All the girls they tell me no no
Because I no get e motor
And dey used to hate me
All the same people don they hail me
All the marketers want to pay me
All the DJs want to play me want to play me
Ma nogere ma nogere oh oh
Ma nogere ma nogere
Ma nogere ma nogere
Ma nogere ma nogere
