About my best musicians

Airplane mode is one of my favorite song and it was written and sang by Adedamola Oyinlola Adefolahan popularly known as Fireboy DML. I love this song because of the lyrics and the way I connect to the song. Someone might ask what is airplane mode; This is a feature in mobile phones that cut off any network signal from reaching your device so this is your go to feature when you don't want to be disturbed.

So today I will be breaking down the lyrics of the song into more meaningful words for people who don't understand Nigerian pigin english.

Yeah yeah ou
So many things wey dey bother man stress from friends and family and brotherman
Man living like an animal
When a problem goes
Life comes with another one

Here the singer talks about the problems of life and how it's a never ending circle.
But I'm a god, I'm a stronger man
I be different breed, my kind no be normal one
I'm not trynna be the number one
So many legends dey
I'm just trynna be another one

This part is kinda self explanatory it's all in english.
But sometimes
E dey be like say I wan manya
All the pressure and the wahala
E dey be like say I don tire
Sometimes
E dey be like say I wan manya
All the pressure and the wahala

This verse he talks about how sometimes pressure and challenges pulls him down and he is getting tired of it. (Chorus)
I just wanna be alone
I don't wanna see no message on my phone
Nothing dey do me you should know
I just feel like I should do this on my own
I just wanna be alone

Here he says he wants to be alone with no disturbance from his phone then he went ahead to assure people that he's fine but just wants to do things on his own.(Chorus)
If no be love, na money palava
If no be stress, na woman and drama
Competition people dey para
Too much beef when I no be mallam

Here he lists ways through which problems can come such as love, Money, Stress, Women and their drama and he also went ahead talk about how extreme competition is and how some dislike him.

Na God dey do am, no be my power
Grace na koko, the talent na jara
So I lock myself inside my yara go down on my knees, and I call on baba

Here he acknowledges that everything he has achieved is not by his talent but by God's grace and that's why he locks himself in his room, get down on his knees and call on God almighty.
He then repeats the chorus again.
