BNXN – 16 Lyrics

Intro
We dey give dem sanga
Shey mo si le samto
We dey give dem sangalo

Chorus
E don dey my routine, since I was 16
Never to lose my focus
I dey work like machine
But since na my routine
I just dey move like robot
E don dey my routine, since I was 16
Never to lose my focus
I dey work like machine
But since na my routine
I just dey move like robot

Verse 1
Oh baby give me soft landing o
We don’t need no surveyors
You don fly go Paris
You don leave me for Lagos
And do you expect me to move on is it because I’m famous
Oh, baby these streets, these streets won’t contain us, hmm
Oh, baby these streets, these streets won’t contain us
Oh, baby these streets, these streets won’t contain us
These streets won’t contain us

Verse 2
And sexy girls dey my city, Eko
If I put am on call make she dey come, she go come
Eko o gi’na ’cause she prefers to ride my Bima
We for don hala colombo
Na you wey for dey burst my bololo
And you no suppose dey use me pa like Sabinwa

Chorus
Since I was 16
E don dey my routine
I no dey lose my focus, ehn
I dey work like machine
But since na my routine
Never to lose my composure, ah
E don dey my routine, since I was 16
Never to lose my focus, eh
I dey work like machine
But since na my routine
I just dey move like robot
E don dey my routine, since I was 16
Never to lose my focus
I dey work like machine
But since na my routine
I just dey move like robot

Outro
Give me soft landing o
We don’t need no surveyors
You don fly go Paris
You don leave me for Lagos
And do you expect me to move on
