Mama Go Dey Proud
A song made by Duke Banky
Duke Banky!
Na me be dis oh
Make una listen
I comot Akwa Ibom carry bag wey heavy
Mind wey full of hope, pocket wey dey empty
Lagos traffic jam, danfo don tire me
Years don pass but mama still dey wait for me
Every morning I dey wake, I dey hustle steady
But e be like say progress no dey ready
Rent don choke, landlord dey vex already
But I no fit return back, I don promise Mummy
Mama I go make am, I swear for God
Even though the road rough, I no go fall
One day we go chop correct jollof
Mama I go make you proud, on my soul
I go make you proud oh!
Mama wait small oh!
Better days dey come oh!
I go make you proud!
Phone dey ring, na Mama voice dey shake me
"Nwa m, how far? You don chop today?"
I dey lie say things dey okay
But for inside my mind wahala dey carry
See me for Yaba junction dey find daily bread
Hustle here, hustle there, I never rest
My brothers dem for village dey depend on me
But God know say I never disappoint Mummy
Mama I go make am, I swear for God
Even though the road rough, I no go fall
One day we go chop correct jollof
Mama I go make you proud, on my soul
I go make you proud oh!
Mama wait small oh!
Better days dey come oh!
I go make you proud!
Akwa Ibom to Lagos na long journey
But I no dey give up, I dey pray steady
God go answer, my time go come
Mama go smile, tears go dry
I go make you proud Mama
Just wait small
Duke Banky!
Better days dey come!
