I carry dat story no with shame, but with clear eye,

Because wetin break me that time shape who I be today.

Some scar turn lesson, no be wound wey still dey bleed.

I forgive you, yes—but memory still dey stand,

Forgiveness na mercy—forgetting no be command.

Your tyrant way, your iron hand, your need for control,

Dat kind language never talk to my soul.

Authority without respect mean nothing to me,

Fear no be power, and power no be dignity.

If you come with kindness, you for see how I easy,

Respect dey open door wey force no fit ever key.

I make peace with di past, but I honor di lesson.

I forgive you, yes—but boundary still dey stand,

Even papa suppose meet me as man to man.

No blood, no history, no wetin don pass already.

I build myself without borrow name,

No title I need, no inheritance for fame.

I be living proof say crown no dey make leader,

No label, no rank—na vision dey matter.

I become important by doing di work,

No by force obedience, but by earning my worth.

Final Chorus

I forgive you—dat one na true,

So I fit be free, no chain to you.

But I no go ever forget wetin shape my spine,

Forgiveness give me peace—memory give me sight.

Outro

Dis no be hatred.

Dis na truth.

Dis na di man wey I become

Despite you—not because of you.

So make dis enter your head well.

I go come back for more.

For now—peace out.

Mic drop.

Deuces.
