Good everyone welcome to another week here on the hive music community I coderaikiri and this is a part of my story. It has really been awhile I posted on the beautiful platform so I'll do my best to make a good comeback impression. For my entry here, I'll be presenting a song cover to pay me so stay tuned because it is definitely going to be a doozy.
Oxlade is that artist known for dropping bangers yearly and pay me happens to one of such songs. I remember being put on this artist by a neighbor back in uni and this particular song was the one that just resonated to me almost immediately and I have been a fan ever since.
The song pay me talks about the repercussions of playing with a lover's heart. Just like the name implies there's absolutely no pay for breaking the heart of someone who genuinely loves you. I really liked how transformed a Bible verse into something so melodious : "what shall it profit a man to gain the world and lose a girl like you.... This is heavy in every which way. Truly oxlade deserves all the accolades cause he's That Guy..
I just hope I am able to do justice to it ... Enjoy and thank you
Lyrics
How do you feel when you look straight into my eyes
Shey I resemble the boy wey go break your heart wey go match am kpa
Out of all the ladies I choose you I no think am twice
(I go double hustle Shatta Wale for you I go make the doe we go pan pan pan)
What shall it profit a man
To gain the world and lose a gem like you
I no know
I no know (I no know)
I no know know know
What shall it profit a man
To gain the world and lose a jewel like you
I no know (I no know)
Emi o mo (Emi o mo)
I no know know know
E no go pay me
E no go pay me
To dey break your heart
E fit no pay me
And e no go pay me
To fuck you up
E no go pay me
E no go pay me
To dey run about
E no go pay me
Girl e no go pay me
To lose you darling
Omo you don catch me
You don bash me
I be like zombie
On a lowkey
You don mud me
You don burst me
All my kasala kasala don burst
Omo you don catch me
You handicap me
I be like zombie
On a lowkey
You don bash me
You don catch me
All my kasala kasha don burst
Na why I dey ask you baby girl
How do you feel when you look straight into my eyes
Shey I resemble the boy wey go break your heart wey go match am kpa
Out of all the ladies I choose you I no think am twice
(I go double hustle Shatta Wale for you I go make the doe we go pan pan pan)
What shall it profit a man
To gain the world and lose a gem like you
I no know (I no know)
I no know (I no know)
I no know know know (I no know)
What shall it profit a man
To gain the world and lose a jewel like you
I no know (I no know)
Emi o mo (Emi o mo)
I no know know know
E no go pay me
E no go pay me
To dey break your heart
E fit no pay me
And e no go pay me
To fuck you up
E no go pay me
E no go pay me
To dey run about
E go pay me
Girl e no go pay me
To lose you darling
