(Oya, listen)
(Ehen, na the story of my life)
(Seven versus one, but God pass them)
From my childhood, they said I would never be anything
My father said I should not bother to go to school
Many days I slept in uncompleted buildings, many lonely nights
I stayed hungry, many days with no food
I cried, no one to hold me, no one to comfort me
I became an orphan inside my parents' house
Begging for food just to survive
But my primary school was by His grace
We were seven versus one
Later I became the only one aside
They saw me on the sea, drifting far away
Seven versus one, fighting for my soul
But the hand of God was always in control
Yeah, I stand alone, but I stand tall
My mother tried, she registered me in secondary school
From there I took my destiny in my hand
I worked for people before I went to class
Tilling the land became my daily life
In JSS2 the load became too heavy
So I ran to my Grandma in Osifo
There I was welcomed, there I was truly loved
My parents never asked where I was
Until they saw me far away
On top of the sea
Oh, they were watching me
We were seven versus one
Later I became the only one aside
They saw me on the sea, drifting far away
Seven versus one, fighting for my soul
But the hand of God was always in control
Yeah, I stand alone, but I stand tall
They thought the road would end in the dust
They thought my story would break in the rust
But see the glory, see the light
I survived the cold, I survived the night
No wahala, I kept the faith
Now I look back at the path I have trod
Giving all the praise to my living God
Seven against one, it was a heavy war
But I opened up a brand new door
They can watch from the distance now
I made it through, and I’ll tell you how
We were seven versus one
Later I became the only one aside
They saw me on the sea, drifting far away
Seven versus one, fighting for my soul
But the hand of God was always in control
Yeah, I stand alone, but I stand tall
Seven versus one
I am still standing, omo
No dulling, through the storm
I made it, yeah
(Hallelujah)
