We Made It (feat. Sojay) Lyrics

Intro

Good evening ladies and gentlemen

I go by the name of eldee the don

And i just wanna say thank you for buying the album

For supporting me through my career

For supporting nigerian music

I appreciate you

Yeah, a little boy had a dream

Llisten

I was 13 mic on trying to kick a better flow

All night lights on, mama couldn’t hear me though

Tape deck overdub just to get my ad-libs

Battling my boys on the block for some practice

Mix tapes, high school, got my reputation

Dreamt about the days i’d be getting heavy rotation

Unilag, last choice, higher education

Weak songs on the radio was motivation

Huh..mama wasn’t really excited

But i aced every school class i was provided

Left her with no choice, plus i had a dope voice

So she put some money up, just so i could turn it up

A little louder, made her a little prouder

She paid for the studio, made me a founder

Trybe records was born

It started as a dream

Its been a long time coming

Shit is never why it seems though

If you could see what ive seen

Been to places ive been

Take a walk in shoes

And know what its like to be me

Its been a long time

Oh yeah we made it

I know its been a while

Thank god we made it

Then it was trybesmen shake bodi

Couldn’t really make money

But we made some hits though

Brothers had a sick flow

Sold tapes outta my trunk

Couldn’t get a slam dunk

No distribution

We were getting punked

Trips to alaba tryna have it all make sense

Aaw men, that was intense

I created the paper-pack to make some paper back

Cos i figured it would work tryna get us on the map

Soon enough brothers had to go their own way

Everybody steady tryna make their own pay

It was his fault

Yeah thats what they’re gon’ say

But god knows best

So i don’t stress

Moving on i took a trip to atlanta

To figure how to lace my bread with some planta

And yeah i aced that

But then i got bored

Right guy in the wrong place

On the wrong board

I figured i should follow my dreams

And go back to my roots

Go back to my truth

If i could do it all again, it’d be the same thing

Run it back, no regrets, do the same thing

If you could see what ive seen

Been to places ive been

Take a walk in shoes

And know what its like to be me

Its been a long time

Oh yeah we made it

I know its been a while

Thank god we made it

Now

’08 bosi gbangba made some big boys

Yeah he back now

Tryna make some big noise

But they held back

Like i was a new cat

I said i was a pioneer

I still had to prove that

Somehow i motivated every one of them

They’re eating, they don’t know how it got in front of them

But i aint trippin

Im just tryna get in front of them

Soon enough top 3

See that i am one of them

Collab-collabo, show em that im a beast

My versatility competition doesn’t exist

They wanna hear me rap more

Spit a couple bars

I rap, i sing, im a superstar

If you could see what ive seen

Been to places ive been

Take a walk in shoes

And know what its like to be me

Its been a long time

Oh yeah we made it

I know its been a while

Thank god we made it

Yeah

Again i wanna say thank you

A little boy had a dream

And y’all made it come true

Shout out to everybody

Who supported my music from day one

I appreciate y’all

All of followers on twitter

My fans on facebook

And everybody who shows me love

Y’all keep me going.

Shout out to my new team at trybe records

Thank you sojay

The world is yours

Peace
