Tsav
[Verse 1]
Do you know what power is
Do you know what power gives
Do you know how long power lives
They caught me driving over Carter Bridge
Note I didn’t start this shit
Loaded up my cartridges
Your boy wasn’t born to quit
Now i’m on a power trip
I guess sometimes power fits
Yo i’m out of it
Take me straight to Yaba left
Can’t believe my power left
My guy this life is made to stress
And now all I see is death
I mean all i see is death
Using every breath to profess that i did it for you best
All these nights I failed to rest
Just so I could wear the crest
So i won’t be powerless
This life it don’t come with pairs
So i do it for you here
Not just grooving for your ears
I am moving for you soul
I am grooving for you slow
But you know my power grows
And you must have heard the flow
So you know he’s going to blow
[Hook]
Like i told you the last time
We're living in our prime we should do it like right now
Do it right now
Every town and background
So i went on my own quest
Tried to do my best but everythings hopeless
My mind is a treasure with no chest
Now i've got the power
Now i’ve got the power
[Bridge]
Round and round we go
Like a merry go
My power steady grows
I can get it yo (2x)
[Verse 2]
Took me 2 weeks
Pen, pad, and a few beats
You know the story I categorically brought the new shit
I think rappers in naij lose it cause they’re confused with
Stupid ideas of what the cue is instead of trying to move it
But i’ve been here for years
Moving lines to reach your ears
Trying to build a small career
Tours from here to over there
Found my heart now i’m a king
Found my art now i begin
This is half of my offence
Step into the lions den
My ideas are like a fence
Guarding me from all of them
What i conjure with a pen
Don pass every one of them
No be me from DCL?
Did you think i’ll disappear?
Benue kid with Lagos flair
And i’ve got the power here
Now i’ll show you why they fear
[Hook]
[Bridge] (4x)
[Verse 3]
And if you wonder why I do this maybe you think that I fake it
You must be mistaken it’s taken a lot of mistakes and of course you relate
A story of love and debate a life all in your face torn and disgraced
What the fuck is this place?
Still living with no light
Half the country with no life
I’m trying to give my all for alls right
But every night I get reminded we don’t care about our lives
I look into our leaders eyes and realise
The road to better lives is about to capsize
Preach to me, maybe peace could be
History is only meant for victory
So we could be forgotten
A mere footnote in this rotten existence
Of course it’s persistence that pushes the listeners to run to their screen push play and disappear
Of course they want a hard beat, catchy hook, beta craze music
Cause reality is something they engage with everyday and it’s made them slaves to disarray
What else to say
