That’s why I could never fall a victim to you
I know I ain’t perfect, sometimes I lose my cool
But you should know the difference between me and you is I won’t lose
It’s the same guy that you knew from yesterday
And you know the money can’t change me anyway
All my people good, we no stress, we dey jaiye (All my people are good, no stress, we are enjoying life.)
And all of the things you dey talk ko de kan aiye (All the things you are saying is nobody’s business.)
