(Talking drum rhythm fades in)
Oya, ehen, listen close now
E don set, the vision dey clear
No dulling, we dey move!
I sit down for corner, pen dey my hand
Writing the future, just like I planned
Omo, no wahala, the ink dey flow steady
I tell you my story, so make you get ready
My brother, no sleep, the hustle dey bright
We dey burn the midnight, chase all the light
See this one, life na turn by turn
Whatever I write, na lesson I learn
Write it down, make the world dey see
This greatness wey dey flow inside of me
Odogwu, no dulling, we rise to the top
Like gbedu wey dey burst, we no fit stop
Write it down, let the rhythm tell the tale
With Chukwu for my side, I no fit fail
Yeah, write it down, watch the pepper scatter
No shaking, no wahala, nothing else go matter
I keep the memory, fresh for my brain
Through the sunshine and through the heavy rain
Ginger for the soul, make I no go faint
I paint the picture, I be my own saint
Some people talk say I too dey write fast
But I wan make sure that this blessing go last
E choke, the way the words dey align
Everything sweet, like fresh palm wine
Write it down, make the world dey see
This greatness wey dey flow inside of me
Odogwu, no dulling, we rise to the top
Like gbedu wey dey burst, we no fit stop
Write it down, let the rhythm tell the tale
With Chukwu for my side, I no fit fail
Yeah, write it down, watch the pepper scatter
No shaking, no wahala, nothing else go matter
Step by step, line by line
Every single verse, yeah, it must to shine
No look back, just keep your eyes on the goal
Write the truth, put the fire in your soul
So keep the book open, keep the spirit high
Watch how we spread wings, we touch the blue sky
If you get vision, abeg make you write am
For every challenge, just go and fight am
We rise, we go beyond, we no be small
We gather the strength, we stand up tall
Write it down, make the world dey see
This greatness wey dey flow inside of me
Odogwu, no dulling, we rise to the top
Like gbedu wey dey burst, we no fit stop
Write it down, let the rhythm tell the tale
With Chukwu for my side, I no fit fail
Yeah, write it down, watch the pepper scatter
No shaking, no wahala, nothing else go matter
E don do, just write it down!
Omo, the vision complete, no cap
On God, we move, we move!
(Talking drum fade out)
Ehen, simple and short, write it down!
