Omah Lay Iām a Mess lyrics
{Intro}
It is what it is
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh yeah (Niphkeys)
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
{Bridge}
Sometimes Iām happy, sometimes Iām sad
I donāt know whatās over me
Sometimes Iām good, sometimes Iām wild
I donāt know whatās over me
{Chorus}
I donāt know whatās over me
Iām overthinking everything
At times, it feels like nobody
Can understand the way I feel
āCause I am fucked up totally
I donāt know how to keep company
So Iāve been drinking cognac
Iāve been too many shots of cognac
{Verse 1}
One for the belly,
another for the broken heart
Three for addiction,
four so I donāt go back
Looking for somebody wey
fit watch my shoulders
So I can never be sober
I can never be so, oh, oh, oh
(I can never be so)
Oh, oh, yes, I did it
How many million I make for a living?
Wear my Louis Vuitton, post for the pic
Let the camera light
hit my teeth, you know
Nobodyās better than me
Nobodyās better than me
I do it differently
Everybody can see
{Chorus}
I donāt know whatās over me
Iām overthinking everything
At times, it feels like nobody
Can understand the way I feel
āCause I am fucked up totally
I donāt know how to keep company
So Iāve been drinking cognac
Iāve been too many shots of cognac
{Outro}
One for the belly,
another for the broken heart
Three for addiction,
four so I donāt go back
Looking for somebody
wey fit watch my shoulders
So I can never be sober
(I can never be sober)
(Niphkeys)

The 25-year-old singer and producerās brand of Afro-fusion effortlessly pulls from his deeply personal history with West Africaās percussion-heavy highlife genre, as well as his enthusiasm for the popular sounds of his generationāfrom classic rap to the Afro-beats empire flourishing in his home base of Lagos.
Throughout his two inventive EPs, Get Layd and What Have We Done, his lithe voice unravels tales that range from introspective to romantic to gratifyingly explicit, expertly laid over lush and soulful instrumentals.
