Turn Down for What?

Turn down for what?
Cos I walked the road, and it's rough?
Turn down for what?
When my ten toes e still dey work
Turn down for what?
When I got family that's looking up
Turn down for what?

See, me I'm plotting on a hundred mil
By a million 100 dollar bills
Is it possible? Of course it is
Grind hard like the flour mill
Turn down when I'm 6 ft, not 60
Dollar dollar bill a fi make the world spin, ferris wheel
We need water, food and shelter, medicine
Many other benefits, make man ah lose sleep
Yet the devil plot and plan that I never win, Jesus cover me (okay)
Jesus piece on me, blessed by father Dane
As if I have the world, and lose my soul, what I gain?
Kin se Olu, still maintain
Folks love me the same
I must win, can't afford to fail

Turn down for what?
Cos I walked the road, and it's rough?
Turn down for what?
When my ten toes e still dey work
Turn down for what?
When I got family that's looking up
Turn down for what?
Hell no, I am not giving up
Turn down for what?
Cos I walked the road and it's rough (fukk dah shit)
Turn down for what?
When my ten toes e still dey work
Turn down for what?
When I got family that's looking up
Turn down for what?

I've been turnt up in my mother's belly
From day 1 since dem say I be man
Lot responsibility on my shoulders
Got me looking out here like I'm somebody's pa
Tell me as e be if you hate me
Ije Nwoke, at times it gets stressing
Late nights me I don tie one
Cold night me I don light one
Demons no dey come one by one
Everyday I be praying for grace
A lot of things that been bothering my head oh
I dey pray make e no show for face oh

I remember those times they said I wouldn't make it here
Took that in, boy I made it anyway
Take my time, I be riding my own wave
Deep down crying and smiling to the face
I went through things omo nobody go know
It's hard to say when you're always on your own
I got some friends but I still feel alone
Even when I'm outside I be still in my zone
Always in my head I don't wanna be free
Cos I feel the pain makes me feel alive
It's between the devil and the deep blue sea
Should I jump in or should I go to hell

Cos I walked the road and it's rough
When my ten toes e still dey work
When I got family that's looking up
Turn down for what?
