[Intro]
(Ehe) Appreciated, appreciated
(Ehe) Appreciated, appreciated
(Ah) Appreciated, appreciated
(Ehe) Appreciated, appreciated (Ah)
[Verse 1]
Don't you worry about it
Father, tell your kiddo
Not to worry about it
Not to worry about it
Your tongue will confess
You'll go in the right direction
You won't forget it
So, you get the picture?
[Chorus]
They won't repeat it twice (Wisen up, wisen up)
You'll learn your lesson on your own (Wisen up, wisen up)
Everybody keeps on searching (Wisen up, wisen up)
For miraculous blessings (Wisen up)
You'll be fascinated by Lagos (Wisen up, wisen up)
If you don't know yourself, you'll be lost (Wisen up, wisen up)
If you have money, you'll be respected (Wisen up, wisen up)
Kiddo, nobody's sacred, not even the apostles (Wisen up, wisen up)
[Verse 2]
Don't you worry about it (Get out of that place)
Father tell your kiddo (Eh, eh)
Not to worry about it (Sukuru ge ge ge)
Not to worry about it (Eh)
Your tongue will confess
You'll go in the right direction
You won't forget it
So, you get the picture?
They'll tell you
Watch out where you're going
Watch out the road you're on
Watch out for them hyenas
Watch out where you're going
Watch out the road you're on
Watch out
Look around in all the places you'll be heading
Stand your ground and stay sharp like Ogun
Watch your back and just do what you supposed to do
Take care of your family and the people you're close to
[Chorus]
They won't repeat it twice (Wisen up, wisen up)
You'll learn your lesson on your own (Wisen up, wisen up)
Everybody keeps on searching (Wisen up, wisen up)
For miraculous blessings (Wisen up)
You'll be fascinated by Lagos (Wisen up, wisen up)
If you don't know yourself, you'll be lost (Wisen up, wisen up)
If you have money, you'll be respected (Wisen up, wisen up)
Kiddo, nobody's sacred, not even the apostles (Wisen up, wisen up)
[Verse 3]
Don't you worry about it (Get out of that place)
Father, tell your kiddo (Eh, eh)
Not to worry about it (Sukuru ge ge ge)
Not to worry about it (Eh)
Your tongue will confess
You'll go in the right direction
You won't forget it
So, you get the picture?
They'll tell you
Watch out where you're going
Watch out the road you're on
Watch out for them hyenas
Watch out where you're going
Watch out the road you're on
Watch out
They'll tell you
Watch out where you're going
Watch out the road you're on
Watch out for them hyenas
Watch out where you're going
Watch out the road you're on
Watch out
