Lyrics

[male vocals] Nna,

listen

close

Yeah,

life

is

a

teacher,

if

you

ready

to

learn

I

sit

by

the

roadside

in

the

heat

of

the

day

Watching

the

world

as

it

goes

on

its

way

Many

talking

loudly,

showing

all

that

they

know

But

the

river

runs

deep,

and

the

current

is

slow

You

see

the

empty

barrel,

it

makes

the

most

sound

While

the

heavy

treasures

stay

under

the

ground

Keep

your

counsel

steady,

guard

your

tongue

with

care

True

wisdom

is

a

burden

that

the

silent

ones

bear

To

know

so

much

and

to

speak

so

little

That

is

the

mark

of

a

wise

man,

simple

and

brittle

Let

your

actions

be

the

echoes

that

ring

in

the

street

While

you

keep

your

secrets,

making

life

look

so

sweet

Oya,

hear

the

message,

let

the

rhythm

take

control

Silence

is

the

sanctuary

for

the

weary

soul

Don't

be

in

a

hurry

to

reveal

all

your

plans

Life

is

a

puzzle

held

in

your

own

hands

Chai,

the

man

who

listens

is

the

man

who

will

grow

Collecting

the

wisdom

that

the

older

ones

sow

In

the

market

of

life,

words

are

cheap

and

they

fly

But

the

truth

remains

hidden,

beneath

the

blue

sky

So

keep

your

cool,

no

wahala,

walk

with

your

pride

With

the

strength

of

the

mountains

standing

deep

inside

To

know

so

much

and

to

speak

so

little

That

is

the

mark

of

a

wise

man,

simple

and

brittle

Let

your

actions

be

the

echoes

that

ring

in

the

street

While

you

keep

your

secrets,

making

life

look

so

sweet

Oya,

hear

the

message,

let

the

rhythm

take

control

Silence

is

the

sanctuary

for

the

weary

soul

Ah

ah,

chop

life

with

sense

Don't

build

your

house

with

a

broken

fence

Speak

when

the

time

is

ripe

for

the

truth

Preserve

the

fire

you

carried

in

your

youth

Omalicha,

wisdom

is

a

beautiful

thing

Listen

to

the

song

that

the

quiet

heart

sing

So

when

you

stand

tall

in

the

land

of

the

bold

Remember

the

stories

that

were

never

quite

told

It's

not

about

the

noise,

it's

not

about

the

fame

It's

not

about

the

noise,

it's

not

about

the

fame

It's

how

you

handle

the

spark

and

the

flame

Omo,

just

observe

and

let

the

world

spin

round

Your

peace

is

the

treasure

that

is

finally

found

To

know

so

much

and

to

speak

so

little

That

is

the

mark

of

a

wise

man,

simple

and

brittle

Let

your

actions

be

the

echoes

that

ring

in

the

street

While

you

keep

your

secrets,

making

life

look

so

sweet

Oya,

hear

the

message,

let

the

rhythm

take

control

Silence

is

the

sanctuary

for

the

weary

soul

Yeah,

silence

is

golden

Keep

your

wisdom

tight,

nna

Just

watch

and

grow

Chop

life

with

peace

of

mind
