[Intro]
Uh Uh Uh Uh Uh Uh Uh

[Chorus]
I wanna be free, free like a bird. Oh I thought you heard say i no like yawa, i like peace instead. I wanna be free, free like a bird. Oh I thought you heard, say I no like ya’ll, I like being sincere. I thought you knew. That this mind is true. For when you see me passing through, let me be because I don pay my dues.
[Verse 1]
Abi you no know say I dey here. Look me as your mallam, plus a soldier and a player. In this industry. Abi you no dey fear. Have a manner my guy, walahi my guy you no fear. When you look up in the sky and you see me dey fly. You dey try to shoot my caucus, maka why? As me nonsense me no dey reply. We no dey die. We go multiply. Pick up the pieces of your life why. Why you they look me when there’s a lurk in your eye. There’s a difference between me and you. Mallam, please don’t look what other people do. Try to stop me I go zoom zoom zoom. You dey learn how to fly, I’ve been to the moon. Bad-mouthing, back-biting. You dey provoke me but I no send you. Imma do me, imma let you do you. There’s a piece of your advice for you. Don’t try to walk in my shoes. Don’t try because e no go size you. (I wanna be free). Just let me be.
[Repeat chorus]
[Verse 2]
When I walk into town. And I’m strolling around. All the bad-belle people dem go start to dey frown. Dem they do like say dem no know say dem no fit pull me down. Dem no know say, say na only God na him dey keep me profound. Dem dey look Uche face. Na only me dem they trace. Dem they do like say na dem holy pass for the place. Dem they scatter my gaze, dem just they block my ways. But no matter what they do, we just gone our ways. Dem take the peace out of me. Dem no want let me to be. Dem they always try to take the sugar out of my tea. Cos I’m a mother-fucking man, I got my life to live. See, no matter what I do it’s just my property. So don’t push me cos I’m close to the edge. I’m trying not to loose my head.
[Verse 3]
When you look up in the sky and you see me dey fly. You dey try to shoot my caucus, maka why? As me nonsense me no dey reply. We no dey die. We go multiply. Pick up the pieces of your life why. Why you they look me when there’s a lurk in your eye. There’s a difference between me and you. Mallam, please don’t look what other people do. Try to stop me I go zoom zoom zoom. You dey learn how to fly, I’ve been to the moon. Bad-mouthing, back-biting. You dey provoke me but I no send you. Imma do me, imma let you do you. There’s a piece of your advice for you. Don’t try to walk in my shoes. Don’t try because e no go size you. (I wanna be free). Just let me be. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
