[Verse 1] From Ajegunle grit to Lekki lights that flash, My step steady, no slip, no crash, By still waters I sip, pepper soup on the ash, Danfo horn say move — my Shepherd clear the path. Night yawa try come, city wanna trap, But He light my front, shii, He cover my back, Okada dash, I glide, no wahala on my map, Green pasture flex — my soul get full stack. [Pre-Chorus ] When Lagos night press, when shadows try play, He dey hold my hand, He dey show the way, On God, I step bold, no shaking today, Goodness behind me — mercy lead the sway. [Chorus ] (Small, chantable chorus — TikTok-ready) Shepherd dey gid me — I no fear, no cap (I no fear) Shepherd dey gid me — I no fear, no cap (No dulling!) (Call-and-response: "Shepherd!" — "He gid me!") (Ad-libs: Eh! Shiarr! Level up!) [Verse 2] Valley of shadow? I turn am to runway, Enemies cold like harmattan — He slay, Rod and staff be agbada — heavy, semper fay; Comfort be suya spice at midnight by the way. They scatter like rain off my umbrella kain, I move like boss, from Ojuelegba to the mainland, Head anointed, oil drip blessings like rain, Cup overflow — dey pour, no hiding the gain. [Pre-Hook — Crowd Hook] (6 bars: call the crowd, drop ad-libs) Make una sing — "Shepherd!" — (Crowd: "He gid me!") TikTok this one, 15s, loop, repeat, No cap — we dey win, we dey chop life sweet, (Ad-libs: On God! No dulling! — Eh!) [Bridge ] Prepare table for me for front of my foes, I sidon front-row, watch how the story goes, Mercy follow me close, goodness no oppose, I step in my future — God sign, He chose. [Verse 3 — Rap Breakdown] 95 BPM pocket, bounce like market drum, Lagos heartbeat sync, my flow dey hum, Count blessings like coins — stack, multiply some, Shepherd pave my lane, e no dey play dumb. From message to moves, from hustle to hush, I level up steady — no flex, just plush, No cap, I walk secure, blessings on rush, Faith on my sleeve, mercy on my crush. [Final Chorus — Big Finish] Shepherd dey gid me — I no fear, no cap (I no fear) Shepherd dey gid me — I no fear, no cap (Forever!) (Call: "Shepherd!" — Response: "He gid me!") Goodness and mercy dey follow me — no gap. [Outro ] (Ad-libs & crowd echo) Shepherd! — He gid me! — On God! — No cap! Shiarr! Level up! — No dulling — forever we clap! (Whisper) Psalm 23 vibes — Naija shepherd groove, we tap.
