Lyrics
Description
[Intro]
Eh-eh, yeah yeah
Mama say, mama say
E no easy, but I dey here today
Mama say, mama say
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
[Verse 1]
When I small pikin, mama dey wake me 5 AM
She say "Ibrahim, go fetch water, no dey form gentleman"
I dey vex for morning, cold dey bite my skin
But now I understand say na training wey she bin
She cook with firewood, sweat dey pour like rain
She no get nothing but she give me everything
Her wrapper don fade, but her spirit still strong
Every night she dey pray, say "My pikin go belong"
[Pre-Chorus]
All di times wey I wan run street
She hold my hand, say "Wait, you go see"
Now I don grow, I don see di light
Mama, you bin dey right
[Chorus]
Mama say, "Pikin, hold your head high"
Mama say, "One day you go fly"
I no believe am then, but now I see clear
Everything wey you talk don happen here
Mama say, mama say
Your word na gold, e no dey decay
Mama say, mama say
I thank you for di price wey you pay
[Verse 2]
I remember when hunger dey bite us for night
Mama go give me her own food, say she don chop, she dey lie
She sell her wrapper just to pay my school fees
When teacher flog me, na her tears wey I see
She say "Education na di key wey go open door"
Even when we no get money, she dey push me for more
Neighbors dey laugh us, say we too dey struggle
But mama stand strong like iroko, no dey crumble
[Pre-Chorus]
All di times wey I wan give up
She pour me water, say "Drink from dis cup"
Now success don reach, I don see di sign
Mama, your words na divine
[Chorus]
Mama say, "Pikin, hold your head high"
Mama say, "One day you go fly"
I no believe am then, but now I see clear
Everything wey you talk don happen here
Mama say, mama say
Your word na gold, e no dey decay
Mama say, mama say
I thank you for di price wey you pay
[Bridge]
If I get million, I go give you billion
If I build mansion, you go live like queen
All di sleepless nights wey you cry for me
Now I go make sure say you rest in peace (in peace)
Your hands get calluses from di work wey you do
But your heart pure pass gold, e shine true true
Mama, I salute you, I bow down low
Na you show me di way wey I suppose go
[Chorus]
Mama say, "Pikin, hold your head high"
Mama say, "One day you go fly"
I no believe am then, but now I see clear
Everything wey you talk don happen here
Mama say, mama say
Your word na gold, e no dey decay
Mama say, mama say
I thank you for di price wey you pay
[Outro]
Mama say, mama say (Yeah, yeah)
I dey here today because of you, eh
Mama say, mama say (Mama, mama)
Your blessing dey follow me through and through
Eh-eh, mama say
(Mama say, mama say)
E no easy, but we don reach
Mama say
(Fade out)
