Okito Baebe
Sally Money
Every now and then
I think why the streets here never safe
You see the big man
Dem never think about the youth
So we have to stay all night
On our grind to just survive yea
Or start a fight with life
O Jah Jah you guide me
How far can I go
I need your favor
Me can't do it alone so
Let's get together
If you cannot help me now
I beg do not help me later
You can't show me love today
Do not show me later
When my later glitter than gold
How far can I go
I need your favor
Me can't do it alone so
Let's get together
If you cannot help me now
I beg do not help me later
You can't show me love today
Do not show me later
When my later glitter than gold
E good say I know say
At the back of my mind
I know one day yea yea
All the hustle I dey pull today
Will never be in vain
Someday it is gonna pay
So you got to believe
And no retreat
Stay true
So you got to believe yea
And no retreat
You better stay true
Truly I will stay
Truly I will stay
Truly I will stay true
Truly I will stay
Truly I will stay
Truly I will stay true
How far can I go
I need your favor
Me can't do it alone so
Let's get together
If you cannot help me now
I beg do not help me later
You can't show me love today
Do not show me later
When my later glitter than gold
How far can I go
I need your favor
If you cannot help me now
I beg do not help me later
You can't show me love today




Do not show me later
When my later glitter than gold

Overall Meaning

The song Stay by Sisi is a reflection on the struggles of youth growing up in unsafe streets where they have to work hard to survive without any support from those in power. The lyrics convey a sense of frustration and helplessness at the state of their environment and the lack of opportunities available to them. The singer acknowledges the need for divine guidance and support to overcome the challenges they face and calls on others to come together and support each other.


The use of words like 'grind', 'fight', and 'hustle' suggest that the youth are not relying on handouts but are working hard to create a better future for themselves. The repeated plea to not help in the future if one cannot help now underscores the urgency and immediacy of the situation and the need for action. The chorus, "How far can I go, I need your favor, me can't do it alone so, let's get together" highlights the need for a collective effort to help each other overcome the obstacles of life.


Stay is a powerful and emotionally charged song that resonates with many listeners. It highlights the realities of growing up in a challenging environment and the need for support from family, friends, and the community to succeed. It is a song that encourages people to persevere in the face of adversity, to believe in themselves and to stay true to their values.
