(Oya, listen now)
Yeah, life gives and life takes, you know?
But the spirit? The spirit stays strong
No dulling, we move, on God
When the package gets removed and the bags feel light
And the morning sun feels like the middle of the night
I look into the mirror, check the face I see
No matter what they take, the core is still with me
They say the road is rough, but my soles are thick
I handle every blow, yeah, I handle every trick
I’m steady on the grind, yeah, I’m walking with the flow
When the fire dips low, watch me make it grow
When life removed my package, hope your will still stay with me
Keep the vision steady, that’s the way it’s gotta be
Even when the road is long, I’m holding on to hope
Rising to the summit, yeah, I’m climbing up the slope
Yeah, keep the will, keep the fire in your soul
Odogwu no dey fear, we still in full control
I remember days I prayed for a different kind of sign
But wisdom is a teacher that you find along the line
They took the shiny things, but they couldn't take the grace
I’m running this marathon at my own steady pace
See, wahala is a visitor, but don't give it a chair
When the air gets heavy, just whisper a prayer
I’m stronger than the setback, brighter than the doubt
That’s what this life and this journey is all about
When life removed my package, hope your will still stay with me
Keep the vision steady, that’s the way it’s gotta be
Even when the road is long, I’m holding on to hope
Rising to the summit, yeah, I’m climbing up the slope
Yeah, keep the will, keep the fire in your soul
Odogwu no dey fear, we still in full control
No retreat, no surrender, we push it to the light
Even in the shadows, we keep the dream in sight
Chukwu bless the hustle, every single step we take
We build it from the pieces, for heaven's sake
So keep your head up, let the ginger never fade
You’re built for the glory, never be afraid
Everything you lost is just a lesson in the bank
Keep the faith inside, and have yourself to thank
When life removed my package, hope your will still stay with me
Keep the vision steady, that’s the way it’s gotta be
Even when the road is long, I’m holding on to hope
Rising to the summit, yeah, I’m climbing up the slope
Yeah, keep the will, keep the fire in your soul
Odogwu no dey fear, we still in full control
Yeah, no dulling
We rise, we thrive, we keep the will
Ehen, that's it
Keep that fire burning, yeah
(We move)
