A song made by Chim
A song made by Chim
Intro
Ayoba, nobody dey see your pain
Na you and self, abi?
Verse 1
Wake up early morning, no light from NEPA
Generator don finish for fuel since yesterday
Rent money calling, but account balance dey cry
Mummy asking how I take care of my affairs
Daddy left so sudden, so the hardship choke
Sisters married off, I standing here solo
No man come rescue, no trust fund waiting
Just these two hands and the strength within
World dey spin but my own dey hang
Everybody smiling on Instagram, lying and turning table by night, pretend in the morning
Head paining me with the burden of living
Chorus
I dey survive, survive alone
Nobody see the tears wey fall at night
I dey survive, survive alone
This world indifferent sure na fight
I dey survive, survive alone
Carrying weight wey dey break my back
But I rise, I rise, I rise
I no go fall back
Verse 2
Friends asking why I no fit go party
Can't afford the bottle, can't afford the dress
People talking say make I find rich man
Like salvation dey come through another human bed
I go pay my bills with my own sweat
I go feed myself with my own strength
No wahala, the struggle dey shape me
Every scar dey write my story strong
Lolo Chim no be anybody's property
I am the architect of my own freedom
Chorus
I dey survive, survive alone
Nobody see the tears wey fall at night
I dey survive, survive alone
This world indifferent sure na fight
I dey survive, survive alone
Carrying weight wey dey break my back
But I rise, I rise, I rise
I no go fall back
Outro
Survive alone, survive alone
But I'm not broken, e choke!
Lolo Chim not broken, I'm rising
Naija woman, na we stronger
