Quotable Lyrics:

If na based on blessings, I dey count my blessings

But na based on cruise, I dey dey on vibes

If na based on lesson, I don learn my lesson

Na that same lesson I dey use dey guide

If na based on settings, I dey check my settings

Make everything dey on check as I no lose guard

If na based on lesson, I learn my lessons

Na that same lesson I dey use dey guide
