[Intro]

Ah.. ah ah ahha ahah

Yeah i like this

EL

You know

My mic sounds nice

Let's go (yeah)

Okay, charley


[Verse]

Make them who get ears then make them hear

Make you chill up relax charley get yourself a beer

Make i talk am plain-plain you nor for read between the lines

You dey like you no dey like me charley i go free my mind

First of all, nowhere cool for this industry we dey

Everybody get en hustle in one or the other way

Only hard work dey reward we all we dey celebrate

We all feel the weather and get wet up on a rainy day

And it's a shame

The way people think say everybody cool plus everybody

Dude, this game is a very bloody pool

Competition ayɛ tight for the kids to idolize

But all be experience, ama me vision ayɛ bright

Every song i drop, i pray to the Lord, let it be heard

This is not a diss record let me be perfectly clear

This pidgin sef i dey rap GMA go come i go dii last

Like if i fit talk for ...... then everybody go fi barb

Every day underground cats they come around studio begging

For answers to their questions

Or for showers and blessings

Here's a lesson

When i was small was hip hop i was repping

But then i had to sell out

Before i started selling

Cos your talent nor be nothing, chale talent no be shih

You dey house dey hold your d*ck dey think say you suppose to hit

Spend your whole day with some bogus niqqas drinking smoking spliffs

Make i give you a couple tips

Get a pen note this shih

First of all - Get a style wey nobody see before

Be original, head to toe to the flow, be the boss

Set your own trends, do something make everybody come

Know say originality e no be choice e be your job

Number 2 - Have a crew wey them go fit die for you

Somebody wey he fit help you see what be lie-what be true

Know for long have your back forever and the vibe be cool

For be your loyal type of dude who go fit help you plan your moves

Number 3 - Don't overspeed

You for plan every step

It's okay to make mistakes but you for learn from your regrets

You go hit for just a couple seasons if you move too fast but you for move steady with your team if you want to last

Number 4 - They say money be the root of all evil

But in the music biz money be the route to more people

If you shaa sef money go make you look and sound legit and..

That be the reason talent eno dey the competition

Number 5 - Stay humble

Know the people you for rush

When the money dey appear, you for know the people you for sort

Make you pet and show love to everybody you go cross

Some go hate and some go love you my paddy, eno be force

Number 6 - Understand, you nor be normal, you be brand

The way you talk-your slangs

The way you post your pics for Instagram

The way you walk-your swag-your shada

Know the places you for come

For the brand demands

Chale all dey influence your fans

Number 7 - Composition

The word be competition

People act like they are friends but they're currently on a mission

Make you no slack never hold back

You for know where thema throats are

Kill or be killed.. better know that they are no match for your vocabs

Number 8 - You for know

Seasons come and seasons go

Your rap career never be konk.. it gets warm and it gets cold

Sometimes you for just relax make somebody get the shine

Make them miss your ass a little then you come back redefined

Number 9 - Okay fine, we all we get wana mind

But one reason why we're stars is cos we all wanna shine

So we grind for the money cars cribs and fancy rides

For the future, we be blind

Save some money on the side

Number 10 - Baba God wey He give this to me

So eno be lie when i say nobody's realer than E.L

We can agree if you repping BBnZ

Because your favourite rapper just a pair of silicon Ds

And that's a list of principles wey them no go teach you in school

If you pay attention and apply these rules, you'll be cool

Big ups to my fellow artist when you see me, don't be shy

Make you hala you go see say E.L I be coolest guy

Big ups to radio TV internet and press support

Big ups to the groupies who want chop me and my fans of course

Most of all, big ups to the haters charley i dey pan

Keep on hating, God dey watch you through a pair of fresh Ray Bans
