Description
[Intro]
(Spoken) Oya, listen —
Ta-ta, ka-ka, sha!
Yeah — broken, but we rise
[Verse 1]
Streetlight flicker, rain on my window
Market callin', old shoes on the go
Heart like ash in a cupped-up hand
Memories spillin' on Lagos sand
He left a silence, sharp as a knife
Name still echo in the corner of my life
But my feet hear the drum under my soles
I dey feel the rhythm, I reclaim my roles
[Pre-Chorus]
When the night close in and the truth sting
I breathe slow, hear the talking drum sing
No hiding, no lying — I steady my song
Call me back to the road where I belong
(Ad-lib response) Oya, make we go!
[Chorus]
Broken, but I'm stronger — fire in my bones
Watch me turn my ash to drum; I claim my throne
(Call & Response) Oya! No be small thing!
[Verse 2]
Street vendor shout, pepper and palm oil smoke
Neon on puddles; the past starts to choke
I fold my sorrow into small paper boats
Push 'em down the gutter where the river floats
Scar like a map, showing every fight
Scar like a tattoo under the market light
I move syncopated, feet answer the pain
Trading my tears for a steady refrain
[Pre-Chorus] (Variation)
The world might try to fold me in cold
But I remember the drum my mother told
Snap your fingers, lift your head, bend that knee
Praise the small victories — then set yourself free
(Ad-lib) I dey come back! I dey come back!
[Chorus] (Lifted)
Broken, but I'm stronger — fire in my bones
Dancing on the ash, I make the city my home
(Call & Response) Oya! No be small thing!
[Bridge] (Payoff / Anthem)
Stop — look — feel the quiet before the roar
I name my fear and then I shut the door
No more sleeping under other people's shame
I stamp my name in the dust, I stake my claim
(Chant, loopable) Rise, rise — oya rise!
(Chant) Rise, rise — make the night realize
Hands to the sky, drum to the ground
We turn loss to chorus, pain to sound
[Chorus] (Final — Variation)
Broken, but I'm stronger — fire in my bones
From streetlight to sunrise, I build my home
(Call & Response) Oya! No be small thing!
[Outro]
Ta-ta, ka-ka — feel the heartbeat
Ash to drum, rain to rhythm, feet to street
Yeah — broken, still shining, still calling
Oya — we rise, no more falling
(Ad-lib fade) Oya… I dey rise… forever shining
