(Soft acoustic guitar playing, gentle talking drum)
Chai...
Life na turn by turn, but this one hurt o...
My brother, my friend...
Odigba oh.
I wake up this morning, I look your side
The room dey cold, no place to hide
I call your phone but nobody answer
This pain inside me, e dey spread like cancer
They say life must go on, make I strong
But how I go sing when you no dey this song?
Omo, the tears dey fall like rain
Nothing fit wash away this heavy pain.
Odigba oh, my brother, my partner, my friend
Why did your journey have to come to an end?
The street dey noisy, but my heart is so quiet
No more your laughter to cure all my riot
Sun re oh, till we meet for the other side
Inna my heart, you go forever abide.
We share the hunger, we share the bread
Now na only memories dey inside my head
You be my shield when the storm dey blow
Now you just pack your load, you say you wan go
People dey pass me, they tell me "sorry"
But "sorry" no fit change this sad story
Chai, death get power but e no get eye
E just take my brother without saying goodbye.
Odigba oh, my brother, my partner, my friend
Why did your journey have to come to an end?
The street dey noisy, but my heart is so quiet
No more your laughter to cure all my riot
Sun re oh, till we meet for the other side
Inna my heart, you go forever abide.
(Guitar fading out slowly)
My friend...
My partner...
I dey miss you die.
Mo gbe...
Sleep well oh...
Odigba.
