“Lazarus” Lyrics by Dave & BOJ
JAE5
Look
Any weapon formed against me can’t prosper
Imposter, I’ma fill ’em with lead
My best friend like Tommy Lee Sparta
I’m in the Gaza just tryna get bread
The Chinese wanna take weh Naija
Most of my people, they struggle and stress
Political corruption
I rise up until there ain’t a government left
Cost to be the boss
Even though I’m financed, the man couldn’t afford it
Fifteen, mummy found my shank
And I nearly got shipped, I was gonna do boardin’
I had a one lightie from Pecks
And a ten-ten Yoruba babe from Shoreditch
If you got a body like Uche
Text me and I’ma pay your father’s mortgage
Listen, I’ma pay your uncle’s rent
And if rap don’t pay, then we would have been getting it off of crack cocaine
I don’t know how man could chat so brave
Little nigga, you ain’t bad, no way
I think me, women, and Italian shoes
Work well together like Maggi and cube
Pretty in pink, but she badder in blue
If you were me, you’d be arrogant too
Óya tété dé, jèkin dé
Gbówó dé, jèkó kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óya tété dé, jèkin dé
Gbówó dé, jèkó kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óda bi kpé ó ya wéré
No enemy can curse me
Bad energy I give back to the sender
My life, blessings must enter
Lagos, I gotta go back in December
Club full of girls, I’m tipsy
A brownin’ one wanna whine on me and kiss me
How she make it clap is a mystery
I see her pastor, I said, “Jesu Kristi”
I see a man say Christ of Nazareth
I yell, “Ayo how yuh pum pum so fabulous”
First round, I thought I was dead but
It brought man back to life like Lazarus
The way she back up the somethin’ and just—ooh, park it
You don’t need mirrors and cameras
I’ve been getting money in from long time
The first rack that he made was laminate
Cut
I need my music right now, come on, man
Where is the fucking music? (I-I—)
Óya tété dé, jèkin dé
Gbówó dé, jèkó kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óya tété dé, jèkin dé
Gbówó dé, jèkó kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óda bi kpé ó ya wéré
Óya tété dé, jèkin dé
Gbówó dé, jèkó kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óya tété dé, jèkin dé
Gbówó dé, jèkó kpé
Óda bi kpé kó kpé kpé kpé
Óda bi kpé ó ya wéré
