[Verse 1]
See for instance
Say I be the one wey dem give chance
Say I be one wey dey make plans
For all man to benefit abi
To make we disagree, to agree to create chance
But now I am not of importance
'Cause, now, I am looking from a distance
That's why you give them the chance
To do us and turn us to victim of circumstance
Them just dey ignore our existence
Them get us use do excuse to buy chance
Ai, them no wan know say we dey, them dey use us dey play
All we get is a pursing glance
Anytime we stand for resistance
When them in the act of exploitance
Abi we just be living in a trance
Lord! Oh my God!
[Chorus]
Halla oyi eh!
The thing what I'm feeling is a feeling of love
And then you know say it so, so
Halla oyi eh!
In your house or you in a motor and you dey a go slow
Halla oyi eh!
This thing is affecting your being and it's killing your soul
Halla oyi eh!
Halla oyi eh for the thing wey you see dey make you halla oyi eh, halla oyi eh
See this type of thing wey we dey feel dey make me dey want to dey, to dey
Halla oyi eh!

Stand, look around you and I bet you go dey want to dey, to dey
Halla oyi eh!
Halla oyi eh, for the thing wey you see wey make you halla oyi eh
[Verse 2]
For instance, say emi ni Baale of Nigerians
Shey I go dey respect your own stance?
Shey I go create the scenery for better to plenty
To dey make we dey give chance
Instead of to dey pack the money go France
Dey make suffer to full in abundance
Dey make me to wan run away to a place wey e be say I go dey feel like to breakdance
Where dem go respect my skills for instance
Where dem go no go just there dey play pranks on top the people wey work the way, wey give them the key
To the door to the substance
Wey dem just dey use with freelance
Their looting no dey give us assurance
Repentance no dey their plans eh
Create annoyance for my heart
[Chorus]

Is a feeling of love
And if you know say it so, so
