[Verse 1]

I do what I do for you, not favors

Stuck in the place where they can't save us

This kind of feeling is contagious

They said, "I'm gon' lose it when I'm famous"

I've seen people fallin' on my way up

Sometimes I lost it but I stayed tough (When I'm)

Runnin' and runnin' like a stray dog

Death is the only thing that saves us

[Chorus]

But here I am

I'd be lyin' if I said that I'm not scared

My body and my conscience

It's here I stand

For every journey, I put God first

No wan fuck up with my trumpet

[Verse 2]

And this hustle wey I carry so

No fit to leave diamond, make I carry gold

All this struggles say my padi know

Say, I no see music wey be party flow

Where I'm coming from, nobody knows

On my mama, I was serving cold

Even for my family, I sabi ghost

Always on my grind and my daddy knows

The money I had to secure

For my guys to enjoy

The struggle I had to endure

The devil I had to confront

And I know my ship dey on course

For family to enjoy

No fit to dey-dey unemployed

I no fit to dey insecure

[Chorus]

But here I am (Oh)

I'd be lyin' if I said that I'm not scared

My body and my conscience

It's here I stand (Mm-mm)

For every journey, I put God first (Mm-mm)

No wan fuck up with my trumpet

[Outro]

Mm-mm

Sterling

Hear my songs of sorrow

Hear my tales of turmoil

The sky, my roof

My feet, the sand kisses
