Lyrics
[Intro] Oya clear road, make the crown pass From mud floor straight to palace glass [Verse 1] I know the weight of the block on my shoulder Cold nights make a young man bolder No silver spoon, na iron we dey carry Now every step heavy, every word legendary I no dey beg seat, I build my own chair Dust for my shoe but gold in the air They see the shine, never counted the scars I came with a dream, now I’m raising the bars [Pre-Chorus] Tell them say the boy don rise No fear dey hide inside my eyes From the quarter to the throne I claim what I call my own [Chorus] Kwati royalty, make the whole place know Crown on my head and the bass down low I came from the trenches, now the brass dey call When I step in the kingdom, every wall stand tall Kwati royalty, no be story wey dem tell I paid every price, now I’m ringing the bell Hands to the sky, let the doubters see Street-born king, na my destiny [Verse 2] My people dey watch, so I move with purpose No empty talk, every line get chorus Big man posture but the heart still gritty I carry my town into every new city If the road get rough, I go still maintain If the rain fall hard, I go dance through pain No borrowed name, no borrowed shine Everything you see came from this grind [Bridge] Raise the horn, let the ancestors hear We survived the smoke, we conquered the fear From concrete dust to a throne up high Put respect on the name when the king walk by [Chorus] Kwati royalty, make the whole place know Crown on my head and the bass down low I came from the trenches, now the brass dey call When I step in the kingdom, every wall stand tall Kwati royalty, no be story wey dem tell I paid every price, now I’m ringing the bell Hands to the sky, let the doubters see Street-born king, na my destiny [Outro] No retreat, no shame, no apology Mud-born crown, full-blown royalty Kwati royalty Na we be the legacy
