Lyrics

[Verse 1]
See I don’t look like wetin I don see
I will never forget the 90s
Many Nights I go dey beg for mercy
Sickle cell been show me crises

Thank you for the journey
Oh Lord oh Lord
If I say my story
O por o por
Fire can’t cool I’m ever blazing
I roll deep with the Almighty

[Chorus]
Aye 5 Star lan je oh
I dey try for myself
VIP no regular
Can’t copy this formula

Aye 5 Star lan je oh
I dey try for myself
VIP no regular
Can’t copy this formula

[Verse 2]
Money
No filter
Don’t let them fool ya
Make your raba
Stack your paper

Let them know
When you pull up pull up
Man down when I pull up pull up

I’ll be your liquor
Fuck the chaser
Bang, bang, bang, undеrtaker
They scared whеn I pull up pull up
Yeah, I rode my fear when I pull up pull up

Kunle from Ikotun
And I be repping
Shout out to Agege
That city raised me
Ask my crew dem dey love me love me
They call me AG baby

Our Government no get time for Ghetto
We only get love on manifesto
I pray for my people
Je oh je oh

[Chorus]
Aye 5 Star lan je oh
I dey try for myself
VIP no regular
Can’t copy this formula
Aye 5 Star lan je oh
I dey try for myself
VIP no regular
Can’t copy this formula

[Outro]
Aye 5 Star lan je oh
I dey try for myself
VIP no regular
Can’t copy this formula
Aye 5 Star lan je oh
I dey try for myself
VIP no regular
Can’t copy this formula
