Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
(Initiating rage process)
Aloyin l'ohun vitamin-C
Mummy mo fi jọ, my melanin queen
Fine girl, no pimples, classy and simple
Uh-uh-uh-uh
Mummy, can you see me now?
Water pour down from my eye
Many-many times I dey miss you gan-gan ni
If to say you wait a little longer
This our life every day a dun kpa
This our life every day a dun kpa
What don't kill me make me stronger
But this one weak me, make I no lie
But this one weak me, make I no lie
Water in my eye when I think of you
Mo ti lowo now, you for don jaiye
What don't kill me make me stronger
But this one weak me, make I no lie
But this one weak me, make I no lie
No be wash
I never see another woman like this
I never see another woman like this
She tell me say the world is full of jagbajantis
Say the little light of mine
Ọmọ, e go shine, shine, shine
Ọmọ, e go shine, shine, shine
Uh-uh-uh-uh
Mummy, can you see me now?
Water pour down from my eye
Many-many times I dey miss you gan-gan ni
If to say you wait a little longer
This our life every day a dun kpa
This our life every day a dun kpa
What don't kill me make me stronger
But this one weak me, make I no lie
But this one weak me, make I no lie
Water in my eye when I think of you
Mo ti lowo now, you for don jaiye
What don't kill me make me stronger
But this one weak me, make I no lie
But this one weak me, make I no lie
Aloyin l'ohun vitamin-C
Mummy mo fi jọ, my melanin queen
Fine girl, no pimples, classy and simple
Uh-uh-uh-uh
Mummy, can you see me now?
Water pour down from my eye
Many-many times I dey miss you gan-gan ni
