Gone Too Soon

Hmm... Uncle mi

Rest well, rest well

Yesterday the world don change for me oh

E pain me say you don dey go

All the memories wey we share together

Na dem go carry me through oh

You teach me how to stand tall like iroko

You show me say I fit be anything

Now the house dey quiet, your laughter done fade

But your spirit go dey shine for my heart

Uncle, sun re oh (rest well)

Your work on earth don finish

Uncle, sun re oh (rest well)

Your love go dey for we forever

Though you don go, we no go forget

All the blessing wey you be

Sun re, sun re, Uncle mi

I remember all the stories wey you tell

How you hustle, how you make am for life

You say "Omo, no give up for this world"

Those words go guide me every day

E choke me say I no fit see you again

But I know say you dey watch from above

Celebrate your life, no be mourn you

Because you live well, you love well

Uncle, sun re oh (rest well)

Your work on earth don finish

Uncle, sun re oh (rest well)

Your love go dey for we forever

Though you don go, we no go forget

All the blessing wey you be

Sun re, sun re, Uncle mi

Hallelujah for your life

You don run your race

Sun re, Uncle

Sun re in peace
