Yeah, Lagos city life, uh
Let's talk about it
Woke up in the morning, landlord at my door (skrrt)
Saying rent is due, man, I can't take no more
Two million naira for a single room space
Bathroom down the hall, water scarce in this place (yeah)
Generator humming, NEPA never shows
Shared compound living, everybody knows
Your business, your struggle, your hustle, your grind
Lagos accommodation, it's a different kind (no cap)
Lagos living, Lagos living
Pay your rent or you're not living (let's go)
Lagos living, Lagos living
Every day's a new beginning (sheesh)
Lekki Peninsula, that's where the money stays
Banana Island views, penthouse modern days
But most of us grinding in Surulere blocks
Yaba tenements, Ikeja spots (uh)
Okada to the bus stop, traffic every day
Two hours commute just to make that pay
Shared apartments, four people in a flat
But we make it work, yeah, we're built like that (gang)
Lagos living, Lagos living
Pay your rent or you're not living (it's lit)
Lagos living, Lagos living
Every day's a new beginning
Lagos hustle, Lagos grind
Home is where you make it, yeah (yeah)
