Description
(Intro)
Eko sunrise, new day rise,
Feel the rhythm, hear the city’s cries.
(Verse 1)
From the Lagos streets where the kola nut falls,
I shed the weight of your love’s heavy calls.
Your shadow lingered like the harmattan haze,
But now the talking drums speak brighter days.
(Pre-Chorus)
Oya, come dance, let the bata beat lead,
Every step a story, every move a freed seed.
No chains, no binds, just the pulse in my feet,
In the heart of the market, where lost loves meet.
(Chorus)
Eko sunrise, I’m rising anew,
Dressed in colors of the market’s hue.
No more tears, just the fire in the drum,
Dancing past the past, see how I become.
(Verse 2)
Like agbada flowing, my spirit’s reborn,
From the ashes of love, a new crown is worn.
The palm wine flows, sweet taste of release,
In this rhythm of freedom, I find my peace.
(Pre-Chorus)
Oya, come dance, let the bata beat lead,
Every step a story, every move a freed seed.
No chains, no binds, just the pulse in my feet,
In the heart of the market, where lost loves meet.
(Chorus)
Eko sunrise, I’m rising anew,
Dressed in colors of the market’s hue.
No more tears, just the fire in the drum,
Dancing past the past, see how I become.
(Bridge)
Echoes of the past like distant talking drums,
Fading with the morning sun, the new day hums.
Community’s laughter, resilience in the air,
In every beat, I find a love that’s fair.
(Verse 3)
No more shadow chasing, no more silent cries,
I’m the baobab standing tall beneath the wide skies.
With every chant and chant, the spirit grows strong,
In the dance of moving on, I’ve found my song.
(Chorus)
Eko sunrise, I’m rising anew,
Dressed in colors of the market’s hue.
No more tears, just the fire in the drum,
Dancing past the past, see how I become.
(Outro)
Eko sunrise, the city’s heartbeat calls,
In this Afrobeat dance, love never falls.
From the ashes, from the dust, I rise and shine,
Moving on with rhythm, this life is mine.
