(Gentle guitar plucks)
Nna, listen to the story of a brother
Opsy Daddywhite, a man of pure gold
Nathaniel Swande, they call me Da Prof
Standing beside my brother, feeling the weight
People talk behind your back, they feel so small
They see your light and start their gossip, oh the hate
But when you walk into the room, their voices fade
They bow their heads and hail you, 'Chairman, Baba ooo'
They call you Odogwu when they stand before your face
Oh, the hypocrisy of men who try to dim your glow
Opsy, my guy, Daddywhite, no lele
Your heart is gold, that is the truth they see
They gossip in the dark, but in the light they bow
Opsy, my brother, look to God right now
With Nathaniel Swande, we stand as one today
Opsy Daddywhite, let the Lord guide your way
We share the music, we share the wine and bread
Colleagues in the office, walking the same road
No winning, no playing, just steady progress ahead
I see the way you carry such a heavy load
But look unto God, my friend, do not be afraid
The Bible says the wages of sin will find its way
Those who trouble you, let them face the wrath above
You are a good man, Opsy, filled with true love
Opsy, my guy, Daddywhite, no lele
Your heart is gold, that is the truth they see
They gossip in the dark, but in the light they bow
Opsy, my brother, look to God right now
With Nathaniel Swande, we stand as one today
Opsy Daddywhite, let the Lord guide your way
Adubriggs, you are too much, a soul so nice
In this life, we pay the honest man’s price
Da Prof is speaking, let the truth be heard
We are the ones standing firm on every word
Opsy, keep your head high, don't mind the noise
They are inferior, that’s why they lose their poise
We dine together, we walk the path of grace
I have your back, brother, in every single place
Nathaniel Swande, Da Prof, keeping it real
With a heart like yours, it’s the truth that we feel
Opsy, my guy, Daddywhite, no lele
Your heart is gold, that is the truth they see
They gossip in the dark, but in the light they bow
Opsy, my brother, look to God right now
With Nathaniel Swande, we stand as one today
Opsy Daddywhite, let the Lord guide your way
Opsy Daddywhite, the man of gold
Da Prof, Nathaniel Swande, the story told
No lele, brother, just look to the sky
We are standing here until the day we die.
