(Talking drum rhythm fades in)
Oya, come close now
Lagos city, we dey here
Ehen, let the music take you
Sun is rising over the Third Mainland
Traffic moving but we got a steady hand
Life in the city, yeah we keep it real
Every hustle got a story, how you feel?
Step out the door, the vibe is calling out
From the island to the mainland, no doubt
We work hard, but we know how to play
Best time to be alive is today
Lagos, we move, we never slow down
Best vibes in the city, best in the town
Lagos, we move, we never slow down
Best vibes in the city, best in the town
(Chant: E choke! E choke! Lagos we go!)
(Chant: E choke! E choke! Lagos we go!)
See the lights reflecting on the water side
Good energy is what we provide
Fine boy, fine girl, everyone in the zone
This is the place that we call our home
No wahala, keep the spirit strong
Singing to the rhythm of this anthem song
Everything we touch turning into gold
Legendary stories that are being told
Lagos, we move, we never slow down
Best vibes in the city, best in the town
Lagos, we move, we never slow down
Best vibes in the city, best in the town
(Chant: E choke! E choke! Lagos we go!)
(Chant: E choke! E choke! Lagos we go!)
Can you feel the pulse? (Yeah)
Can you feel the heat? (Yeah)
Every single heart dancing to the beat
From the north to the south, we united here
Only love and laughter, shedding every fear
Omo, check the way we steady grind
Leaving all the worries far behind
We make it look easy, we make it look fly
Watch our dreams soaring way up high
Lagos, you're the heartbeat, you're the soul
Making every broken spirit finally whole
Lagos, we move, we never slow down
Best vibes in the city, best in the town
Lagos, we move, we never slow down
Best vibes in the city, best in the town
(Chant: E choke! E choke! Lagos we go!)
(Chant: E choke! E choke! Lagos we go!)
Yeah, that’s the Lagos flow
No dulling, just keep it moving
Lagos, the center of it all
(Shekere flourishes)
