Dear Child

(álbum: Tabula Rasa - 2014)

Grandma
Was a very good old lady
She tried and died
Working to feed her grown babies
From dusk to dawn
She laboured for more
Nothing was okay
Nothing was ever enough

She say time
Go heal everything
Because time go kill everything
She said a lifetime
Is enough time
Say if you take time
You go fit to make time

Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so
Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so

Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo

Grandma
Was a very good old lady
Her body been weak
But she no get time
To be lazy
Although I was young
When she passed away
The look in her eyes
Like say she dey talk say

She say time
Go heal everything
Because time go kill everything
She said a lifetime
Is enough time
Person wey dey take time
Go fit to make time

Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so
Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so

Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo
