[Intro: Melodic Chant] Ewo... money no be water o But e dey flow like river o Listen... [Chorus] Money no be water But e dey flow like river o When e come, e go change your life When e go, e go teach you sense Ah-ah, see me now Dancing in designer o But my mama's wisdom Still dey follow me around, around [Verse 1] Young boy with the pencil Drawing on the walls back then Mama say "My pikin go be somebody" Now I'm flying business class But something dey miss me pass The joy when I dey create freely See my account balance rising But my spirit need reminding Of the reason why I start this journey Now everybody want piece Family calling from the East I'm just trying to keep my soul steady [Pre-Chorus] Money dey sweet o But peace of mind sweeter Listen to my story No be everything wey shine na gold o [Chorus] Money no be water... (Repeat chorus) [Verse 2] Now I dey ball like chairman But my art book dey gather dust Success get different meaning these days Remember when dream bin pure Before the gold come obscure The passion wey bin dey drive me But I no go complain though Just need to find the balance o Between the blessing and the burden Time to make mama proud While keeping my soul around African child still dey learn lesson [Bridge] Money good o (Good o) But make e no change you o (Change you o) Keep your spirit true o (True o) No matter wetin you do o (Do o) [Chorus] Money no be water... (Repeat chorus) [Outro] Remember where you come from o No matter where you dey go o (Fade with authentic African instruments)
