Taiwo Emmanuel, Taiwo Emmanuel (eh!)
Rise up, na your time (oya!)
Naija situation hard, but we no dey give up (no cap!)
Current don cut, generator dey hum-hum (ah-ah!)
Rent chop my money, but I still dey push on (see gobe!)
Wetin no kill you, go make you stronger still, bro
Road full of potholes, NEPA taking light (oya!)
But Taiwo Emmanuel, you go shine bright
The struggle is real, but the vision clearer
Every night dark, but the dawn dey come nearer
Taiwo Emmanuel, rise up! (eh!)
Taiwo Emmanuel, no dulling! (shey you dey whine me?)
When the pressure come, we don't break
When the odds come, we overtake
Taiwo Emmanuel, na your blessing day (ehen!)
No wahala, watch the darkness fade away
Okada rider, banker, sabi trader (omo!)
Everybody grinding, even when life hard
From Lekki to Ikorodu, Lagos to Kano (ah-ah!)
Fresh graduates now, some don dey do artisan
Inflation dey bite, but our spirit strong (no dulling!)
We cook jollof rice when the power come on
Taiwo, you see your generation rising?
From the ashes of struggle, phoenix surprising!
This economy no go break us (eh!)
No system go shake us (oya!)
We dey ginger, we dey stronger (see gobe!)
We go prosper, we go conquer (ehen!)
Taiwo Emmanuel, rise up! (eh!)
Taiwo Emmanuel, no dulling! (shey you dey whine me?)
When the pressure come, we don't break
When the odds come, we overtake
Taiwo Emmanuel, na your blessing day (ehen!)
No wahala, watch the darkness fade away
Taiwo Emmanuel (eh!)
Naija rising (oya!)
We go make am (no cap!)
