God I Beg

(album: Gift & Grace - 2008)

Justerys
But that life wey you get
For the money wey you get
E better man yo, biyo boda eh
I say, "Is part of band eh"
Pack your bar
Chineke me

The fear of poverty
Is the beginning of bad luck
If you no work, you no go chop
Anytime I waka before, na so I dey talk

See, I nearly join Yahoo, Yahoo.com, eh
People start to look me like a boncom
So I decide to sell plantain
Everytime I waka before, na so I dey shame

Thank God, God don bless me eh
I dey for the day
Thank God for this mercies, eh
Chai, say Timaya na my name

Sometimes, I dey wonder for myself
If I no get money I get oh
Who go give me money to chop?
My brother man, how I go dey oh?

My mama, my papa, my brothers and sisters
Who go dey their pillow oh
God, I beg oh, God, I beg oh
God, I beg oh, God, I beg oh

God, never, never never let me to lack oh
God, I beg oh
Eh, baba God, abegi, abegi
Na beg I dey beg you eh, eh
God, I beg you, I beg you
Na beg I dey beg you eh, chai
Chinekeme

The fear of the Almighty
Is the beginning of wisdom
I remember when I bin start
Many people look at me
Say Timaya dey mad

The road to success is very narrow
So many people say, "I don kolo"
Hey, dem call me an olofofo
Say right now, Timaya don come blow

Thank God for his mercies eh
I dey pon the game
Thank God for your blessings eh (Chai)
Say Timaya na my name

Sometimes, I dey wonder for myself
If I no get money again oh
Who go give me money to chop?
My brother man, how I go do?

If my music no sell again
My brother, na wetin I go say?
God abeg oh, abeg oh
Abeg oh, abeg oh
Never, never let me to lack oh
God, I beg oh, oh

Baba God, abegi, abegi
Na beg I dey beg you eh, eh
Na the way beg you, I beg you
Na beg I dey beg you eh

Everybody just say ah, eh
It's another true story, eh
E happen for my family, eh
My papa was very wealthy
My brother man in that case, it was heavy, eh

Chai, right now we so broke
My brother man, I swear no be joke
Some people won begin to dey vex
My brother, this e be like James hardly chase

Say thank God, God don bless me eh
I dey pon the game
Thank God for your mercies eh (Chai)
Say, Timaya na my name

Sometimes, I dey wonder for myself
If I no get money I get oh
Who go give me money to chop?
My brother man, wetin I go do?

All the money wey I get for this world
My brother, e go last for me oh

If you like make you feel like John Forefront chai
