Lirik Dey Play

No be choice oh
Make we dey check for the light oh
Ọlọhun, àti wise oh
À dẹ tí economize oh
Ọlọhun, on a mission
How many men follow me come?
Ọlọhun, no dey think am
Àkóbá, adabá, Ọlọhun má jẹ à rí

Uh-huh, ekelebe chasing
Eke, ekelebe chasing
I'm hunting, move like I'm speed racing
So fast, they couldn't believe it, ehn-ehn
Ekelebe chasing, eke, ekelebe chasing
I'm on the move like I'm speed racing
So fast, they couldn't believe it

Dropped out of school from the first day
My teacher no get money
And my customers dem dey call me
Last time I check, I was ballin'
On a Sunday, open the bank on a Sunday
Ọlọhun, for God's sake
Shey no dey see money walk, ayy

One Ferrari (dey play)
Two Lamborghini (dey play)
Maybach (dey play)
Drop-top, the Rolls-Royce (dey play)
Soon I go wake up in a new Bugatti (dey play)

Uh-huh, ekelebe chasing
Eke, ekelebe chasing
I'm on the move like I'm speed racing
So fast, they couldn't believe it, ehn-ehn
Ekelebe chasing, eke, ekelebe chasing
I'm on the move like I'm speed racing
So fast, they couldn't believe it

Mmm-hmm, too many mileage
Man never sleep for like nine days
Phone dey vibrate, dem dey find me
If na fine babe, make she slide in
Óyà, jẹ à lọ j'ayé lọdọ Lai Shade

Alhaji Bashiru k'owó wọ'lé
(Dey play, just dey play)
Straight from Archipelago
Private jet ní má ńfá igbo
Ọmọ, these days, dem just dey take the trap like joke
All dem dey trap lama ń fagbo (woo-hoo)

Uh-huh, ekelebe chasing
Eke, ekelebe chasing
I'm hunting, move like I'm speed racing
So fast, they couldn't believe it, ehn-ehn
Ekelebe chasing, eke, ekelebe chasing
I'm on the move like I'm speed racing
So fast, they couldn't believe it
