eko Lyrics:
[Intro]
I’m not even about to start with the fact that as a twenty-four year old guy, you did not know what the fuck you wanted to do with your life
(Pay attention)
[Verse 1]
Oje lọ n lo, too picky meenie minie mo (Oh-oh)
Ṣòkòtò wọn fo, I’m gon’ get wetin I need o, yeah (I need o)
L'ọla inu kan, inu kan, I kneel down and I look up
Mo jókòó si bẹ yẹn mo lúgọ, paparazzi wọn fe ya picture
[Pre-Chorus]
Eko lo n pe'bi, mele ja ni mo ṣe n lo temi
As I dey chase the moolah, ba n gbe wa'le mi
Ki ire ona wamiri, 'when e go sup?' nse lo ma n bimi
No be original you go rock, if you be poor man pikin
[Chorus]
Go home or go harder
Ko shine bright like no other
Ooh, eni ba ma lo mo ah
And I’ve been working pass my co-worker, ona kan o mà kó lo w'ọjà
Pulling heavywеight like Mayweather, wahala o
Go homе or go harder
Ko shine bright like no other
Ooh, eni ba ma lo mo ah
And I’ve been working pass my co-worker, ona kan o má kó lo w'ọjà
So I hawk my shit like cold water (Like cold water)
[Verse 2]
Jo má gbé fo mi, o r'ọkàn mi, ah
F'iṣo e ṣo mi, ah
Work hard, ọmọ no dulling, ah (Eko)
And you said, “Surely, mo ma wo store ni ah”
O si ti f'ọ́wọ́ tọ mi, a de jo ma lo London ni ah
[Pre-Chorus]
Eko lo n pe'bi, mele ja ni mo ṣe n lo temi
As I dey chase the moolah, ba n gbe wa'le mi
Ki ire ona wamiri, 'when e go sup?' nse lo ma n bimi
No be original you go rock, if you be poor man pikin
[Chorus]
Go home or go harder
Ko shine bright like no other
Ooh, eni ba ma lo mo ah
And I’ve been working pass my co-worker, ona kan o mà kó lo w'ọjà
Pulling heavyweight like Mayweather, wahala o
Go home or go harder
Ko shine bright like no other
Ooh, eni ba ma lo mo ah
And I’ve been working pass my co-worker, ona kan o má kó lo w'ọjà
So I hawk my shit like cold water
