[Verse 1]
She say, “I’m not with you for money”
But she see my grind for corner
See the pain dem put for my body
And the nights wey I still stand taller
Mama call, “My pikin, hold your head”
I dey run, I no dey sleep
Bills dey talk, but I no fit beg
Still I dey chase my peace
[Pre-Chorus]
If love na when I carry load
Will you still dey near me?
When pocket dry and road dey cold
Will you still dey here, baby?
Tell me true, no do me play
I no want fine mouth and fade-away
[Chorus]
Can you love me when I no get?
Can you love me when I no get?
I get heart, I get fire, I get faith
Can you love me when I no get?
Love me for my hustle
Love me for my scars
Ọmọ, tell me straight now
Can you love me when I no get?
[Verse 2]
I dey from where no be flex
Where each meal na victory
I don know fake from real face
Even praise fit hide envy
You see my shoe, you see the dust
You no see how I carry load
Ọkan mi, I no give up
Even when the street too cold
She talk say, “Baby, I fit stay”
If you keep it one hundred
But the truth fit show one day
When the account no get nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
If love na when I carry load
Will you still dey near me?
When pocket dry and road dey cold
Will you still dey here, baby?
Tell me true, no do me play
I no want fine mouth and fade-away
[Chorus]
Can you love me when I no get?
Can you love me when I no get?
I get heart, I get fire, I get faith
Can you love me when I no get?
Love me for my hustle
Love me for my scars
Ọmọ, tell me straight now
Can you love me when I no get?
[Bridge]
If I rise, you go still know me?
If I fall, you go still hold me?
No be label, no be sugar talk
Na the deep part when dey show me
I no want gold, I want truth
I no want shine wey go run
If your love fit stand this test
Then my name fit be your song
[Final Chorus]
Can you love me when I no get?
Can you love me when I no get?
I get heart, I get fire, I get faith
Can you love me when I no get?
Love me for my hustle
Love me for my scars
Ọmọ, tell me straight now
Can you love me when I no get?
