Intro
Lagos to Houston, yeah
Naija to Texas, omo
Verse 1
I remember Lekki nights, go-slow traffic on the Third Mainland
Generator sound dey play my background music, NEPA no get better
Okada dey fly, danfo dey shake, but my dreams dey fly pass am
From Ikoyi to the mainland, I dey grind, I dey suffer
Then one day I pack my load, tell my mama say I dey go
Houston call my name, I answer like "Eku ile"
From Lagosian to Texan, but my heart still dey Lagos ground
Chorus
Lagos to Houston, I carry the flag
Naija pepper no finish, still got the swag
Lagos to Houston, I no forget where I come from
But I chase my dreams from the West to the Sun
Lagos to Houston, yeah!
Verse 2
Houston streets different, no go-slow, no okada madness
But I miss the jollof rice, the Lekki vibes, the owambe blessing
I dey shine now, but I no forget the struggle in VI
Every naira I spend, I remember when I dey count am
Mama at home, she pray for me, I pray back say "God bless"
Lagos make me strong, Houston make me believe
I carry two cities, two hearts beating the same rhythm
Chorus
Lagos to Houston, I carry the flag
Naija pepper no finish, still got the swag
Lagos to Houston, I no forget where I come from
But I chase my dreams from the West to the Sun
Outro
Lagos to Houston, forever na
Naija to the world, on God!
