Paid In Full
E ror' egbe, e
ror' egbe
He paid a debt he didn't even owe
Now we're reaping everything he had to sow
Under pressure, watch the story unfold
Solid silver turning into heavy gold
(un-hun, tell 'em!)
Ise!
He paid the debt he did not own (ayee)
Established forever on a golden throne
From Benin City to the world we fly
No more looking down,
we are rising high
Walking with the ancestors guiding my feet
Heavyweight rhythm bumping deep in the street
They tried to trap us,
tried to keep us in place
But he broke the chains,
now we run the whole race (run it,
yeah!) Uyi
mwan,
uyi
mwan, e se (thank you) He cleared the slate,
he paved the way
Ise!
He paid the debt he did not own (ayee)
Established forever on a golden throne
From Benin City to the world we fly
No more looking down,
we are rising high
He paid the debt...
(he paid it all)
O b'ose,
o b'ose
