Description
Arrangement & Timing Notes:
- Tempo: 105 BPM (Groove-driven Afrobeat)
- Structure per stanza (≈1 minute each): Intro 8 bars (instrumental), Verse 16 bars (~36s), Chorus 8 bars (~18s), Short instrumental fill (4 bars) — repeat across 3 stanzas for ~3:00 total.
- Key instruments: talking drum, congas, shakers, punchy sub-bass, percussive guitar chop, brass stabs (trumpet/sax), plucked synth, konga fills.
- Production cues: call-and-response adlibs after each chorus ("Eko o!" / "Oya!"). Use tight sidechained bass, syncopated snare on 2 & 4, rim clicks and handclaps on upbeat.
[Intro — 8 bars]
(Instrumental: talking drum & congas open, bass slide, brass stab on bar 8)
[Verse 1 — Stanza 1: 16 bars]
Third Mainland morning rush, danfo horns cry,
Okada weave the gaps, keke flash by.
Balogun vendors shout, fabrics fold like flags,
Suya smoke, roasted yams, mama’s braided bags.
Lekki Phase 1 skyline, sun on glass and sand,
Fishermen mend nets while builders lay the land.
Ajah evening whisper, island roads that bend,
Eko hustle in my chest, every corner’s friend.
[Chorus — 8 bars — Short Hook]
Lagos lights — Lagos lights
Lagos lights, na my light (call) — make we dance all night (response)
Lagos lights — Lagos lights
(Adlibs: "Eko o!" "Oya!" brass stabs)
[Instrumental Fill — 4 bars]
(Talking drum lead, conga roll, bass groove)
[Verse 2 — Stanza 2: 16 bars]
Night falls on Marina, club doors swing wide,
Rooftop laughter, neon chasing tide.
Third Bridge morning memory, traffic like a drum,
But tonight the moon reward the ones who come.
BRT humming steady, Babanla taxi cry,
Market lights at Balogun keep the dreams alive.
Brass answers the street, trumpet cuts the heat,
Tailors stitch tomorrow on the corner where we meet.
[Chorus — 8 bars]
Lagos lights — Lagos lights
Lagos lights, na my light — make we dance all night
Lagos lights — Lagos lights
(Adlibs: "Eko o!" "Oya!" crowd responds)
[Instrumental Break — 8 bars]
(Conscious breakdown: conga solos, muted brass, guitar chop, space for call-and-response)
[Verse 3 — Stanza 3: 16 bars]
Mama peddle water, stall glow under lamplight,
Young boys counting fares, dreaming past midnight.
Market cries become a choir, prayers meet the sea,
Hustle carved in smiles, resilience in we free.
From Ajah to the Island, from Ibeju to the Pier,
Every heartbeat says Eko, every voice sincere.
We grind, we sing, we build, we rise,
Lagos holds our names beneath those open skies.
[Chorus — 8 bars — Finale]
Lagos lights — Lagos lights
Lagos lights, na my light — make we dance all night
Lagos lights — Lagos lights
(Adlibs: "Eko o! E go better!" Brass hit, crowd shout)
[Outro — 8 bars]
(Instrumental outro: talking drum fades, congas, warm brass echo, final vocal adlib: "Eko for show")
