(Oya, ehen!)
See the man, see the crown
Ezembanabu, king of the town
Odogwu himself, we dey hail you today
(No dulling!)
From the roots of the royal tree you come
With the weight of the throne, beat of the drum
Ezembanabu, you carry the grace
No shaking, no competition in this place
Your name ring loud from the East to the West
In the royal family, you’re simply the best
(See gobe, he too fine!)
Ezembanabu, Odogwu himself
Put your wealth and your style on the shelf
King of the family, the chosen one
Under the light of the morning sun
Ezembanabu, you hold the key
Everything soft, yeah, we living free
(Odogwu!)
People dey talk, but you no send them
Diamond spirit, you no need no gem
Generosity flowing like the river tide
With the royal family right by your side
Whether in Lagos or deep in the city
Your vibe is fire, yeah, it’s looking pretty
(Shey you dey whine me?)
Ezembanabu, Odogwu himself
Put your wealth and your style on the shelf
King of the family, the chosen one
Under the light of the morning sun
Ezembanabu, you hold the key
Everything soft, yeah, we living free
All hail the king, let the trumpets sound
Ezembanabu, feet firm on the ground
Odogwu level, no be small thing at all
Standing so tall, we go stand through it all
(E choke!)
Your legacy built on the stone and the gold
Stories of greatness waiting to be told
Ezembanabu, the crown fits you well
Giving us stories that the elders will tell
Continue to shine, let the pepper reflect
King of the family, we show you respect
(No cap, man!)
Ezembanabu, Odogwu himself
Put your wealth and your style on the shelf
King of the family, the chosen one
Under the light of the morning sun
Ezembanabu, you hold the key
Everything soft, yeah, we living free
Yeah, Ezembanabu
Odogwu, man of the people
King, forever and ever
(Ah-ah, ehen!)
We remain loyal, no shaking
