Baby, calm down, calm down
Girl, this your body e put in my heart for lockdown, for lockdown, oh lockdown
Girl, you sweet like Fanta, ooh, Fanta, ooh
If I tell you say, “I love you”, you no dey form yanga oh, oh yanga oh
No tell me no, no, no, no, woah, woah, woah, woah
Baby, come gimme your lo lo lo lo woah woah woah woah
You got me like woah woah woah woah woah
The first verse explains how Rema approached this girl and how she refused to follow him. She felt insecure, so Rema tells her to calm down. He intends to show that his feelings are real and he doesn’t want to play with her.
I see this fine girl, for my party she wear yellow
Every other girl they dey do too much but this girl mellow
Naim, I dey find situation, I go use take tell am hello
Finally, I find way to talk to the girl but she no wan follow
I know say she sabi pass that one, one (Mhmm)
But she feeling insecure, woah
‘Cause her friends go dey gum her like chewing gum, woah
Then Rema returns home and sleeps, trying to forget about this girl. But it doesn’t work: the morning after he wakes up, she’s still in his mind, and there stays for days. That’s why the rapper opens up his heart and confesses his love. His heart is rushing because he knows the risk: he had already had much pain in the past because of other girls, so he hopes she understands the importance of his feelings.
As I reach my house, I say make a rest small,
As me I wake up na she dey my mind,
Day one, day two-wo, I no fit foc-o-us (I no fit focus)
Na so me I call am, say make we link up, woah
As I start to dey tell her how I feel, now my heart dey race
Baby girl if you leave me, I no go love again
Because e get many girls wey put my heart for pain
Shebi, you feel my pain, yeah-yeah
