Description
ehn, ehn...
isco dee on the mic o
oluwa, na your hand i dey

sun and rain, i don face am tire
sweat and pain, walking through the fire
for this lagos road, my leg no dey rest o
early momo, late night, i dey try my best o
wetin i gain? my account still dey press bench
but i no fit complain, i know say god get sense
my mama talk say, “patience be the key”
but sometimes the waiting fit turn me to beast, you see
i tried to make it right, hand steady on the plough
right wrongs i created, i no fit look back now
dem say man must hustle, but who dey measure the race?
i'm still here standing, waiting for that grace
(call) i don try, i no lie!
(response) e get why, god's time!
(call) my name na isco dee,
(response) him dey see, him dey see!
(call) i’ve tried to make it right, but the waiting still long,
(all) oluwa’s time is the best time, he never do wrong!
(call) isco dee, no shaking,
(response) your blessing dey baking!
(all) i’m still waiting, still praying, until my dawn comes breaking.
omo, i bend knee for corner, whisper my confession
work my plan a to z, still no connection
but i remember say david wait for throne,
joseph for pit, then him kingdom come known.
so who be isco dee? just a man wey dey try
with a clean heart and a dream wey no fit die
i go mend my ways, pay the price for amends
because the appointment with greatness, only god fit set trends
i tried to make it right, hand steady on the plough
right wrongs i created, i no fit look back now
dem say man must hustle, but who dey measure the race?
i'm still here standing, waiting for that grace
(call) i don try, i no lie!
(response) e get why, god's time!
(call) my name na isco dee,
(response) him dey see, him dey see!
(call) i’ve tried to make it right, but the waiting still long,
(all) oluwa’s time is the best time, he never do wrong!

(response) your blessing dey baking!
(all) i’m still waiting, still praying, until my dawn comes breaking.
shey you know how e be?
when your heart clean, but the world still dey squeeze
shebi na try i try, no be small try
right my wrongs, make i no go deny
so i look up to the sky, tell my maker
“baba, i no go fit do this one without you o

(isco dee, tell dem again now)
oluwa clocks no dey run fast, e dey walk
but the time wey e reach, your blessings go shock

oluwa’s time is the perfect time, joy comes after pain
