[Intro]
Footsteps in the dawn, I press on softly
Gri-gri of hope in my palm, I walk holy
[Verse 1]
I dey hustle through the morning, oga God dey by my side
Mama dey pray for me, her voice a gentle guide
Pockets light like breeze, but my heart heavy with dreams
I keep my cool, steady steps, steady pulse it seems
Chorus, I dey thank God for life, I dey thank God for grace
Mama and Papa beside me, their smiles light the place
Chorus, I believe one day the road go open wide
We go rise like the sun together, side by side
[Verse 2]
Naija rhythm with log drums, soft piano in the air
Guitar mellow, bass deep, I dey hustle with care
Nigeria songs dey flow, pidgin phrases for the street
Reflecting rap verses, every line I ain’t defeat
I dey patient like river, I know the rain go come
One day my turn, under this wide, hopeful sun
[Pre-Chorus]
But today I push, I keep faith in my chest
Small wins add up, I dey counting the rest
[Chorus]
I dey thank God for life, I dey thank God for grace
Mama and Papa beside me, their smiles light the place
I believe one day the road go open wide
We go rise together, no be just me alone
[Bridge]
Street dreams, street prayers, mix in the same breath
Hopes heavy but bright, I’m walking past the test
[Verse 3]
True hustle, humble heart, I bless the path I pave
For my people who dey dream, for the brave and the brave
We dey keep the faith strong, patient to the core
One day wealth and success go knock at our door
[Chorus]
I dey thank God for life, I dey thank God for grace
Mama and Papa beside me, their smiles light the place
I believe one day the road go open wide
We go rise like the sun, together we rise
[Outro]
Grateful heart, steady steps, we dey push through the night
Dawn dey break, we go stand tall in the morning light
