Song Meaning

Sung largely in Nigerian Pidgin — the title roughly means "You don't take me for granted" — the song's opening lines draw a deliberate contrast: "You carry me when some carry their gods." That's a direct echo of the prophets' mockery of idols that have to be carried because they can't move themselves — Isaiah 46:1 and Jeremiah 10:5's description of gods that "have to be carried, for they cannot walk." Naming God "the covenant keeping God" reflects Deuteronomy 7:9's description of the LORD who "keeps covenant and steadfast love." The claim "there's no mountain that can't be moved" draws on Jesus' teaching in Matthew 17:20 that faith can move mountains — repositioning an image usually used about human faith into a statement about God's own power instead.

You carry me when some carry there Gods

You feed me Lord when some feed there Gods

You fight for me when some fight for there Gods

Jesus You no dey use me play oh

You carry me when some carry there Gods

You feed me Lord when some feed there Gods

You fight for me when some fight for there Gods

English Translation:

You carry me when some carry there Gods

You take care of me like a sheep

When others feed their Gods

You never allow me to be put to shame

King of kings, there's no other God like You

You are the God that changes all situation

Great and mighty God

The all knowing God that has the final say

King of kings, who you cry to ad He will come

And do more than Your expectations

The covenant keeping God

There's nobody like You

There's no mountain that can't be moved

in Your name, the endless God

You deserve my and lifting of our hands

Life giver life changer
