The lyrics in Diamond Platnumz's song Nana are filled with emotions of passion, love, and pain. The song starts with Diamond expressing how good he is in bed, saying that his lover is young and doesn't know what it means to sleep with him. He makes references to one of the greatest Formula 1 race car drivers in history, Michael Schumacher, to symbolize his speed and skills during intercourse. In the next verse, Diamond shows his vulnerable side, expressing his fears of being hurt and betrayed by his lover. He doesn't want to be left alone, and he begs his lover to stay with him.
The chorus is filled with the word onanana, which means โtry and try againโ in Swahili. This summarizes the message of the song, which is about Diamond's relentless pursuit of love, despite the pain and heartbreaks he has experienced. The song's language is a blend of Swahili and Nigerian pidgin, with references to soccer stars like Ronaldo and Nigerian food like dagaa and mbege.
