Lyrics of Child of the World by Falz
intro
Yah
Go
Uhn
Ahn
Apple of her mother's eye
She be trophy daughter
Mummy raised her
Daddy never dropped a dollar
Daddy ran away, didn't wanna have a child
Mummy wasn't ready
Still remember how she cried
But time flies, all that one is in the past life
Shola ti mature,
Gbogbo body ti di large size
She just collect Law
Degree for unilag
'First Class' in the bag
Make her mummy to dey brag
She went to be an intern for her uncle
Just a little hustle before she go to Law School
My daughter, the Lord will be your muscle
Omo Jesu, Mummy know she love the Gospel
But uncle Peter, agbaya, alainitiju
One late night, 'became wild in the Sitting Room
Uncle please stop... Shhh, be silent
bridge
Uncle didn't stop till he broke the hymen
chorus
Am I a fool?
Shey I don go astray?
Am I a victim of my circumstance?

And now, I'm feeling like I don lost my way
Am I a fool?

So she need the love
Uncle Peter don create beast

She can't have enough
She met some ladies wey go like rub shoulder
On some quick business
verse
With a high turn over
Say if you ride "stick", you go ride 'Range Rover'
Aristo PLC, shey you wan be Stakeholder
verse
Now with Sugar Daddy-loving everyday
She don dey get the pay
If you get the dollar spend the pay, no dey negotiate

She's in deep, her whole life don deteriorate
Many "belle" she don get, she don terminate

verse
She promised not to disappoint
I guess she broke her vow
She let herself go
She let Mummy down
But she go fight to defeat that depression
As long as she's alive she can still find redemption
She's getting people sensitized about the virus
She's now hoping that her story might inspire us
Don't be like me, help me tell the young ones
Don't come to realize it after you're long gone
verse
Please, don't be a fool now
Don't go astray
Don't be a victim of your circumstance
Omoluabi, ma bo s'owo aye
I didn't know when I lost my way
Please, don't be a fool
Don't go astray
Don't be a victim of your circumstance
Omoluabi ma bo s'owo aye, please
I didn't know when I lost my way
outro
I'm a Child of the World
I just became a child of the world
I be Child of the World
I don become a child of the world
Child of the World
I just became a child of the world
Child of the world
I don become a child of the world
