(Oya, listen now)
My Odogwu, my heartbeat
Kingsley Eze
You build the walls, you fill the rooms
You shield us from the coming glooms
A steady hand, a tireless might
You work all day and through the night
Kingsley Eze, my only one
But in your heart, I’m searching for the sun
But in your eyes, a distance lies
A quiet void where feeling dies
You give so much, yet hold so far
Leaving me reaching for a star
Oh, Kingsley, come back to me
The bills are paid, the needs are met
But there are things that I can't forget
A gentle word, a knowing glance
A shared moment, a second chance
I need the man behind the stone
Don’t leave me sitting here alone
But in your eyes, a distance lies
A quiet void where feeling dies
You give so much, yet hold so far
Leaving me reaching for a star
Oh, Kingsley, come back to me
I see the stress, I see the pain
You’re carrying the weight of rain
But open up, let love flow in
That’s where our journey should begin
(No wahala, baby)
So look at me, tell me your fears
We’ll wash away the silent tears
No distance now, no empty space
Just us two, in this warm embrace
You are my king, my everything
Let’s hear the melody we sing
But in your eyes, a distance lies
A quiet void where feeling dies
You give so much, yet hold so far
Leaving me reaching for a star
Oh, Kingsley, come back to me
Come back to me, Kingsley Eze
My Odogwu, my own
No distance, only love
(E choke, but in a good way)
Just us, my baby.
