Ebute Metta (Naija Umbrella Remix)
[Intro]
Oh, aha-aha
EMEzzy, Muzik Men, you know
Banky W, Mr. Capable
Lemme get my swag on real quick, here we go
Listen
Ayo
[Verse 1]
Laser sharp hair line shaped by Dominicans
Mr. Capable is back with his pad and his pen again
Catch me in the Bronx politicking with mami's
Blowing up like I'm more juiced up than Rocky
Mad 'cause your girl fell in love with a black man
And yes I'm so African, tell by my accent?
And yes I'm Nigerian, damn right I am packing
And yes I'm the future, the rest of you are past tense
[Verse 2]
I rep Naija
Whether I live near or far
I can be out in Yankee
Or even posted up in Jand
See you gotta know who you are
Even when you hustle hard
Just follow your dreams
And you can be a superstar, because
[Chorus]
You can cross rivers in Calabar
You can so rock out in Abuja
Riding Okadas in Benin
Doesn't matter we gon' make it out to the end
Whether you're up north in Kaduna
Or getting your hustle on in Anambra
Riding through traffic in Lagos
You can be from Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
[Verse 3]
Make you rep Naija
Whether you live near or far
You can be out in Yankee
Or even posted up in Jand
Make you know who you be
Even when you're hustling
Make you follow your dreams
Even if you're from Oshodi, Oshodi oh
[Chorus]
You can cross rivers in Calabar
You can so rock out in Abuja
Riding Okadas in Benin
Doesn't matter we gon' make it out to the end
Whether you're up north in Kaduna
Or getting your hustle on in Anambra
Riding through traffic in Lagos
You can be from Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
[Break]
Yeah, EMEzay
It's your boy Banky W aka Mr. Capable
You know, right now we just did this right now
We just having some fun in the studio
We did this for all our Nigerian people east, west, north, south
Everywhere all around the world

Get your hustle on
Let's go
Bring me back one time for ya!

[Chorus]
You can cross rivers in Calabar
You can so rock out in Abuja
Riding Okadas in Benin
Doesn't matter we gon' make it out to the end
Whether you're up north in Kaduna
Or getting your hustle on in Anambra
Riding through traffic in Lagos
You can be from Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy
From Ebute Metta
Metta, Metta, ayy, ayy, ayy

If we only got unity, got unity
