| Hey, uuh

| Some people be acting like they know it all
|
| Hey, ooh
|
| Some people be acting like they know it all
|
| Hey, ooh, ai
|
| Some people be acting like they know it all
|
| Ooh
|
| See, see
|
| See this type of thing wey we dey feel
|
| Before you know, you don dey start to dey kolo small
|
| I no go lie
|
| We feel these things for real
|
| Some people no believe that money brings upon a man’s downfall
|
| Face reality and you will see
|
| That it pays nobody
|
| To be feeling that they know it all
|
| Try to visualize what I feel
|
| And I bet what you will see would be a picture of a garden wall
|
| If you try to push am down
|
| Try to enter the town
|
| Try to see wetin dey happen around
|
| Na so them go dey bring you down
|
| Before you know, you go dey for six feet under the ground
|
| Ooh ah
|
| Some people be acting like they know it all
|
| But everybody knows that people rise and fall
|
| Some rise up again just to stand up tall
|
| And wiser and stronger
|
| No matter how long you live
|
| You can not learn it all
|
| You go only do your best because you no go fit do all
|
| So if you want to criticize me, talk small small
|
| Cos you no holy pass, my brother
|
| U no holy pass, my sister
|
| Hmm, some people when they see a wrong thing
|
| They will start complaining
|
| Until the complaining turn into shouting
|
| Anytime they see a wrong thing
|
| They continue shouting
|
| Until the shouting turn into traditional shouting
|
| Make them try to correct a thing
|
| They will start to thinking
|
| Until the thinking make the pressure to start to set in
|
| Make them feel like outcast in the society them live in
|
| Because they lose them sense of belonging
|
| But they would try to push am more
|
| Try to open every door
|
| When negativity doesn’t make it certain
|
| So when them try to stop the complaining and the shouting
|
| Them no go fit because e don be spiritual something
|
| People take advantage of the dream
|
| Because them realizing
|
| Say this people lost them spirit of fighting
|
| So them start to use them head
|
| Use am like dustbin
|
| All the problem of the nation
|
| Them be dumping, in them head
|
| Slavery will start to set in like Amistad
|
| Oya, I know say you seen the making
|
| And them start to do almost anything for almost nothing
|
| Cos them same people they need some fighting
|
| But the scavengers would bring them all
|
| They will push them to the floor
|
| And to collect all the people them belonging
|
| But like a goat that has pushed to the wall
|
| We already ready to start to do the fighting
|
| So me a go run them down
|
