You no fit say you no feel am
The love I get for you, na for reala
You no fit say you no see am
When no be say I be John Cena

Without you, I no fit to complete am
Don't leave me odo (Don't leave me odo)
O ya open your door
Tori mo ti ṣiṣẹ, gbowo
And I wan spend it on you
When you go low
Happiness all over me
Can I see you tonight?
Nobody knows tomorrow
Make we no dey fight (Make we no dey fight)
Better hold me tight

O o mọ DML

Come over, don't say no
Come spend my ego
Make we no dey fight (Make we no dey fight)
Better hold me tight
Mọti, fagbo (Yeah)
Dance away your sorrows
The night is young
And time is borrowed
Can I see you tonight?
Nobody knows tomorrow (Tomorrow)
Make we no dey fight (Make we no dey fight)
Better hold me tight

We won't be here forever
So love me now or never, baby
I know the truth is bitter
So give me something sweeter
When you bend it over
Ɔdɔyewu, it's over
My baby sweat all over me
Obaa sima murder me (Ooh, ooh)
Obaa sima murder me (Ooh, ooh)
Obaa sima murder me

Ṣiṣẹ, gbowo
And I wan spend it on you
When you go low
Happiness all over me
Can I see you tonight
Nobody knows tomorrow
Make we no dey fight
Better hold me tight

We won't be here forever
So love me now or never, baby
I know the truth is bitter
So give me something sweeter
When you bend it over (Bend it)
Ɔdɔyewu, it's over
My baby sweat all over me
Obaa sima murder me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
We won't be here forever (Ooh, ooh)
So love me now or never, baby (Ooh, ooh)
I know the truth is bitter
So give me something sweeter (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
When you bend it over (Over)
Ɔdɔyewu, it's over (It's over)
My baby sweat all over me
Obaa sima murder me
