When you dey hustle, you go dey all alone
When you succeed, they go call you their own
Na because you don dey for the throne
They dey call you nwoke oma
When you dey hustle, you go dey all alone
When you succeed, they go call you their own
When they see say you dey for the throne

Protect your soul and your body
No let anybody do you corny
When the raba steady coming
Your name go dey touch ceiling
Anything you do e go turn hailing
They go call you nwoke oma, nwoke oma o

They dey call you nwoke oma

Now I know, now I know
How it feels
Only to be loved, for the things that you give
Now I know, now I know
