Editor's note
P-Square's 'Story' is a thank-you note
The Nigerian duo recounts their early days and thanks fans over a decade later.
Twelve years ago when we started dancing
Most comeback anthems are about triumph. This one feels more like a family update, with all the mundane details left in. The thank-yous to radio stations and journalists land like a handwritten note.
The phrase 'We dey try to understand why / Some people are not the same' pops up twice. It's a quiet moment in a song full of celebration, a nod to the friction they faced while climbing. They don't dwell on it, just mention it and move on.
It's a blunt opening for a memoir. No metaphor, just a year and an action, which sets the tone for everything that follows.
The way 'This na our story, story, story yeah' repeats, almost chanting, gives the track its grounding pulse.

We realize say p-square better
When our mates dey bubble, we dey huzzle
To make sure our music go escape
Us from trouble
Then we dey try to understand why
Some people are not the same
From one competition to another
Our mama use to tell us not to bother
Cause we dey play, we dey sing
We dey dance for the same shows
Eh, at the same time
For all those people way de play our songs
And all those people we dey write about us
We love you, we love you
We wanna thank you, we wanna thank you
Cause na so e suppose to be
Can’t imagine wetin life go be
Without you, without you
We wanna thank you, we wanna thank you
In the year two thousand and one
Was a blessing and a lesson that shows
We were progressing
While in year two thousand and two
Timbuktu came to our rescue
While in year two thousand and three
For everywhere
Na our tapes and cds eeh
E never finish for santin city
We go for kora for south africa eeh
We dey try to understand why
Some people are not the same
From one competition to another
Again... Our mama use to tell us not to bother
Cause we dey play, we dey sing
We dey dance for thesame shows eeh
At the same time
I got a story, story
