Mmm hmmm (Ebei, ahba)

[Verse 1]
No list dey where them no go mention me
By the time I’m done, man of the century
But I just begun; you ain’t seen the best of me
I’m a business, damn, you can invest in me
Started cooking up shit with no recipe
Now we booking up gigs, rest is history
Used to roam the streets with the sun kissing me
They say I’m good with my tongue, you can kiss and see
I was married to the game, long distance though
She get ashawo tendencies, long distance ho
E no dey pay to be conscious? Oh hoh!
Like guitars at rock concerts, you might go broke
One Ghana for despair, two Cedis for hope
Be aware, dream-killers fond of saying 'nope'
When you see white smoke, M-dot the new pope
When I say more vim, not a reference to soap (Nope)

[Hook]
Ebei, ahba
Dream killers, you no dey feel us?
Ebei, ahba
I no go fit? Oh BS
Ebei, ahba
They think we’re monkeys, we turned gorillas
Ebei, ahba
The stone the builder refused, now the realest
Me I'm hard-headed, yeah Joe, me nnte gyae
Hard-headed, yeah Joe, me nnte gyae
Hard- headed, yeah Joe, me nnte gyae
Hard-headed, me nnte gyae
Hard-headed, yeah Joe, me nnte gyae
Hard-headed, yeah Joe, me nnte gyae
Hard-headed, yeah Joe, me nnte gyae
Hard-headed, me nnte gyae

[Verse 2]
Some get job, but get no passion
Some get passion, but got no job
So when you talk about living your passion
Them go yob you say, “Chale, make you dog”
When you make it, you can make it rain, cats and dogs
Obiaa ne ne deɛ, some prefer cats to dogs
Do it for a cause, some do it just because
M dɔdɔdɔ ti dɔ, I just dey cause
Dream-killers dey chaw, I start dey source
Since umbilical, I cut the cord
Jayso, make I free my mind, press record
Chivalrous music, it opens doors
Back when I started, most people said “Why?”
Me, I’m hard-headed, wo nnhu? Me nnte gyae
Man takes flights so early like red-eye
You can’t trick me, no, no Mr. Jedi
Undisputed champion, who am I?
Double entendre, shout-outs to M.I
Doing this since the days of Karl Kani
Give up my dreams? Oh chale, how can I?
Life’s got its idiosyncrasies
Roll with the punches, DKB
I go tear my shibobo, TKZee
Success go follow me, she’s my groupie

[Hook]
