Rather than positioning wealth as luxury alone, Pay Day frames money as relief, the moment when stress eases, and effort finally pays off. The song aligns with Zlatan’s identity as an artist who represents young people chasing financial stability in a tough environment. The tone is confident but not reckless. Zlatan acknowledges the struggle first, then celebrates the reward, reinforcing the belief that enjoyment feels better when it’s earned.

[Intro]
I s'til dey hot I don go far
I s'til dey run kilometers
I getti bread with plenty butter
Dem pour for my head holy water
Ten toes down me I get stamina
Na me dey hot check the thermometer
I'm so far gone and there's no turning back
Iro lẹpa! Irọ lo pa!
[Chorus]
Everyday don turn payday
(Everyday don be payday)
Everyday don turn payday
(Everyday don be payday)
I pray make too much money no ṣe mi leṣe
I deserve number 10 jersey 'causе I dey ball like Jay Jay
(Everyday don bе payday)

Until the pepper rest for blockchain
