[Intro: Adol]

A le sa lo responsibility yea

[Chorus: Adol]

Ile aye ni ile eko wa

Ka f’ara bale ka do pin

Le to wa

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responsibility wa ni

Oya lets go e je ka lo

We no fit run away ah o le sa lo

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responisibility wa ni

[Verse 1: Olamide]

Small like a departmental course

Ko ni da ko carry e

Coz life is a biatch

Ko ni da ko marry e

You can love her

But falling in love is the barrier

Coz when you start you get carried away

From your career

Who wanna go to hell nobody wan try

We all wanna make heaven

But nobody wan die

The only question that

I wanna ask is why

People hide away from truth

And stick to the lies

I know frustration is in the air

Bi eruku engine danfo

But

Baby come near su’n mo bi je ka fo

I know you’re not scared

But don’t pretend you’re kinda baffled

E no show for your face

But you carry am for head like

Afro

Afro

Afro

I can feel your heart beat

I can hear your soul singing to it

But no be r n b

Na song of sorrow

Na im dey make your heart bleed

It’s killing you

You’re finding it so hard to breath

See we’re just ordinary people

So get your mind right

Don’t let your mind get crippled

Life becomes hard

When we don’t take it simple

Do what you’ve gat to do

And leave a spot like pimple

[Chorus: Adol]

Ile aye ni ile eko wa

Ka f’ara bale ka do pin

Le to wa

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responsibility wa ni

Oya lets go e je ka lo

We no fit run away ah o le sa lo

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responisibility wa ni

[Verse 2: Adol]

In tears mo mo ibi ogbon wa o

Ooo mo mo ibi ogbon wa o

Ani ogbon gan o si ni ile mo wa lo s’oko

Yee yee mo wa lo s’oko

Coz i go love wisdom

And i go date wisdom

Kiss and caress wisdom

Even marry wisdom

Coz knowledge is all i see

Is all I see

Coz i go love wisdom

And i go date wisdom

Kiss and caress wisdom

Even marry wisdom

Coz knowledge is all i see

All I see

[Chorus: Adol]

Ile aye ni ile eko wa

Ka f’ara bale ka do pin

Le to wa

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responsibility wa ni

Oya lets go e je ka lo

We no fit run away ah o le sa lo

[Verse 3: Olamide]

Lets do this

To all my street soldiers on the battlefield

You need not to tell me

I know how you feel

If you no get faith again

Start to dey refill

Though na every mike tyson

Get him own holyfield

Eyan kan o le wa la ye

Ki ti e ma de ba

Eyi to de ba mi ni mo’n le

Mo de need lati le ba

Omo ti oo je iya,to ni ohun gbon

E ba mi bere lowo e ta ni teacher to ko

Wo’n ni e duro ni surulere

Wo’n ni awon lo si ona osogbo

To ni suru ba wa de

Wo’n ha la nu so pe awon rogo

Omo iya mi ja ara e

Je ki won ba e la’kisa

Ati se ori ire no be by american visa

It is what it is

It’s best you realise

You gat to give it all it takes

With blood in your eyes

When a dead man walk

The Living man should rise

If you dull for warfront

You get hit by surprise

We’re going up down up down

Soldier go soldier come

You become an old soldier

When another soldier come

Bi o fi imu ara e mi

Ko si eni to ma mi fun e

Oyo ni everybody wa

Bee ni mo wi fun e

[Chorus: Adol]

Ile aye ni ile eko wa

Ka f’ara bale ka do pin

Le to wa

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responsibility wa ni

Oya lets go e je ka lo

We no fit run away ah o le sa lo

Responsibility

Responisibility wa ni

[Outro: Adol]

Ile aye ni eko wa

Ile aye ni eko wa o

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responisibility wa ni

Ile aye ni ile eko wa

Ile aye ile eko wa

Responsibility

Responisibility

Responisibility wa ni

Ani oya lets go eje ka lo

We no fit run away a le salo
