Lyrics
Description
[Intro]
(Ad-lib) Na we day! — We de shine!
Bass steady, tom-tom heartbeat, sea breeze on Lumley line
Horn of the taxi, charcoal smoke, pepper soup on the fire
Kissy Market shouts, mama sellin' kola, children dreamin' higher
[Verse 1]
Sun rise on Magazine, slippers slap concrete
Djembe on the corner, rhythm make heart beat
Mama foldin' bread, padi fixin' shoes for street pay
Kingtom to Aberdeen, we grind from dawn to late
Fried fish smell mix salt from the bay — memories in each bite
Old radio play talk talk, promises no sound right
But den we laugh — dem call we small, we call we family
We weave the city stories, stitch 'em into melody
[Pre-Chorus]
Oya, feel di pull, breathe the smoke and the sun
(Ad-lib) Una hear me?
From the gutter to the hotel, every step a drum
Mek we raise — mek we run
[Chorus]
Na we day! (Na we day!) — We De Shine!
We spark light in the alley, make the dark resign
Na we day! — We De Shine!
Krio heart, English tongue, one voice on the line
[Verse 2 — Darker]
Night come heavy, light cut, generator coughin' low
Police siren pass slow, ghetto boy still pushin' flow
Padi lose work, uncle sell hat, cousin cross town for less
Big man talk big, promise gold, na empty chest
Rain fall on tin roof, mama fold her hands and pray
Little one draw stars on wall, dreams written in clay
Market close early, food short, hunger learn to speak
But we keep pen sharp, rap hard, hope never leak
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Listen — hear the tom-tom answer to the street light
(Ad-lib) Na so we do!
We count our losses, then we count our wins at night
Step by step, we climb, from gutter to the bright
[Chorus]
Na we day! (Na we day!) — We De Shine!
We spark light in the alley, make the dark resign
Na we day! — We De Shine!
Krio heart, English tongue, one voice on the line
[Bridge]
This one for my mama — hands salted by the sea
She wake before the sun, she teach me how to be
For the padi we bury, for the baby who still sings
For the man who fold his dreams into small things
I hold a photo on the dashboard, wind blow like memory
I promise on the drumbeat, we rise — that promise heavy
(Ad-lib call-and-response)
Leader: Una see? / Crowd: We de see!
Leader: We nor go fall! / Crowd: We de rise!
[Chorus — Final]
Na we day! (Na we day!) — We De Shine!
From Kissy Market to Lumley, songs cross the coastline
Na we day! — We De Shine!
Every corner, every mama, every padi — hear the sign
[Outro]
(Spoken Krio over fading djembe)
Mek we no forget we roots, mek we no forget we name
We carry salt, sweat and drum — we carry flame
From street to stage, from small table to big light
Na we day — na we time, we de shine tonight
(Ad-lib) Na we day! We De Shine! — Oya, sing it loud!
