Lyrics
Intro
won ni pe bi oba Kan oku
Aole fo Oba mi o je (kosi tojo)
Oba o fumble ki wonfi oba mi je (true)
They say if the king didn't die (they whining)
No one else can take his place
But if the king misbehaves (naija don't sleep)
Another will rise to take his place (confirm)
Verse
So watch your back, watch your throne
'Cause in this world, you're never alone
Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer
'Cause in the end, it's all about who's the bolder
Ibi iyi ni ìtẹ́ oba
Ṣugbọn okun fu ibugbe Alagbara ika
Bí ọba bá gbàgbé ojúṣe rẹ̀
Òmíràn yóò gba ipò rẹ̀.
In this game of thrones, it's survival of the fittest
No room for weakness, gotta be the quickest
To seize the crown and wear it with pride
But remember, power comes with a price
Chorus
won ni pe bi oba Kan oku
Aole fo Oba mi o je (kosi tojo)
Oba o fumble ki wonfi oba mi je (true)
They say if the king didn't die (they whining)
No one else can take his place
But if the king misbehaves (naija don't sleep)
Another will rise to take his place (confirm)
Verse
In the city of gold, where the streets are cold
The king's reign is absolute, his power untold
But when he strays from the path of right
The people will rise up, ready to fight
For justice and freedom, they'll take a stand
No longer will they bow to the king's command
A new ruler will emerge, a beacon of hope
To lead the kingdom to a brighter tomorrow, we cope
the land of the brave, where the lions roam
Only the strong survive, it's the law of the throne
Chorus
won ni pe bi oba Kan oku
Aole fo Oba mi o je (kosi tojo)
Oba o fumble ki wonfi oba mi je (true)
They say if the king didn't die (they whining)
No one else can take his place
But if the king misbehaves (naija don't sleep)
Another will rise to take his place (confirm)
Outro
So heed this warning, oh king of the land
Your power is fleeting, like grains of sand
but if you stray from the path of right
Another will rise, to take your place in the light
But if the king falls from grace
Another will rise to take his place.
