H.O.P.E (Hold On Pain Ends) ft. Lord X - Mizzy Banks

...

[Mizzy Banks]:

I hope you're listening ?

See

omo Iyami Come close

Let me tell you how the matter start

I got a call

Early mor mor call it was from lion heart

He say "Mizzy Banks, come my side make we drop the bars"

I was like "Oh my God, I'm really gonna blow like that"

I woke up in the morning

just to go to Lagos

I got the big dream, just to get rich and famous

I no fit afford morning TP

Gat to wait for night bus

Cuz the way the country be, Them no fit to assist boys

Let me cut the story short

He plenty for my mouth

Momma said you gotta think twice

before you dey act

Two days after I reach Lagos

Then we started recording

Money don dey finish

Then I continue the bombing

Na Around 4a.m nai EFCC burst us

With slap... Nai these people come dey use dey confront us

"Where your phone oga? Tell me! whats the f*cking password?"

Wetin comot for my body that moment na goosebumps

Many words for my head

E be like say na protest

The harder it gets,

The closer you are to success

I was locked up like

It was in detention

If I remember how I start

to give up no be an option

I wonder what my fans would be thinking 'bout now

I was locked up, my parents came to bail me out

I came out, I saw my face on the media

I was broken,

but still yet, I dey fire down

Ten days I was locked up,

Ten days I was numb,

Ten days I was locked (Locked up)

Ten days I was locked up

Ten days... I was locked up

[Lord X]: Listen,

And if we talk demm go blast us

We supposed troway this country even if dem dash us

Bucket go full, If we say we wan dey cry

Living in Naija supposed dey among 1000 ways to die(f*ck)

Mirror on the wall,

Mirror on the wall,

I no fit talk too much. If not, dem go just eat me raw

Now listen, Freedom of speech

They don comot am from the law

Follow SARS argue too much, then na bullet for your skull

Bullsh*t!

the Constitution is fake

All the laws them dey make, na the same laws them dey break na

What the f*ck you telling me?

Where is the national cake

E don tay we dey don wait for this cake wey dem no dey bake na

Now listen,

Now make we say that one na minus

No be small money they put inside this Corona virus

What about the hunger virus?

They aint moving an inch

you know why???

Because hunger doesn't kill the rich man

Foreigners are gonna cry for us(my n*ggwa)

If they hear of what we f*cking bear in Naija

You can't use certificate to find money

but u can use money to find certificate

Here In Naija!!

Ten days I was locked up,

Ten days I was numb,

Ten days I was locked up

Ten days I was locked up,

Ten days(Ten days) I was f*cking locked up
