Darkness Before Light

Chale... e don tey wey I dey feel like this

Sometimes the weight too heavy

Every morning I dey wake up tired

Even when I sleep for night

Smile for outside but inside, my heart dey bleed oh

No be say I no try, I just dey lose the fight

Wetin I do wrong? Why this darkness hold me tight?

People dey ask wetin dey do me

But the words no fit comot from my mouth

I dey carry wahala wey heavy pass mountain

My spirit don weak, I dey doubt

This na the storm wey I dey face alone

Darkness before the light go show

I know say somewhere e dey, hope dey wait

But right now, my heart heavy like stone

I go find my way back home

E go better, I believe, omo

Some days I no fit leave my bed

The fight for inside my head

People dey talk say "just be strong"

But them no know the battle wey long

I miss the person wey I been be before

When smile come easy, when I fit soar

But this season, e dey teach me something

Say to rise again na everything

This na the storm wey I dey face alone

Darkness before the light go show

I know say somewhere e dey, hope dey wait

But right now, my heart heavy like stone

I go find my way back home

E go better, I believe, omo

One step, one day

I go find my way
