(My serenity Oya, listen now)
Yeah, the love be so deep, e no get measure
It’s a beautiful surrender, you see?
(No dulling)
Your eyes, they be like a gorgeous ruin, my love
I no even fear the danger wey you carry
But you dey strip away my freedom so slow
Until I forget say I ever belong to myself
See, a silent glance from you is enough
My strongest vows, them dey break like dry wood
I drop my armor, like a hollowed man
Bowing before a monument I can never possess
Omo, you be slow, exquisite theft
If I did walk away, I’d still be empty
‘Cause my ashes, them scatter for your feet
Every road within me, e dey bend toward you
Every prayer, e carry your name, my darling
Yeah, you hold the rhythm of my soul
People, them mistake you for grace, they don’t know
But me, I see the way you take my heart away
I search my soul for a place you no touch
But even there, I find your shadow waiting for me
Ehen, I surrender all, no wahala at all
I will love you with the certainty of the dawn
Not just the beautiful hours, no, no
But in the ones wey ask more from us, I dey stay
I go stay in the moment nobody remembers
Even when the smile fade, I go remain
(On God, I go remain)
Through the fire and the rain, my baby
Your shadow is my light, your love is my grace
Omo, you be slow, exquisite theft
If I did walk away, I’d still be empty
‘Cause my ashes, them scatter for your feet
Every road within me, e dey bend toward you
Every prayer, e carry your name, my darling
Yeah, you hold the rhythm of my soul
Yeah, quiet certainty, my love
Just you and me, no dulling
(Exquisite thief, you take it all)
Oya, let’s go, grace and light
(Chai, the love is deep)
