Quiet Pain

(Soft hum)

I dey feel am for my chest oh

This thing heavy me

I no talk plenty, you know say I dey quiet

But inside my head, e dey riot

You come my life like say na juju

Now you gone, I dey here dey feel like mumu

I remember how your hand fit my own

Now I dey scroll through your pictures alone

Eighteen years, first time wey I give my heart

Now e scatter, I no know where to start

Quiet pain, e dey loud for my soul

You leave me here, now I no dey whole

I wan shout but the words no dey come

This heartbreak don make me feel numb

Quiet pain, e dey choke me for night

I dey ask God if I go dey alright

(Omo, this love don wound me)

My people dey talk say I go move on

But them no understand wetin dey go on

I be introvert, I no dey give love easy

Now wey I give am, you leave me, e no dey funny

I see couples for road, my heart dey pain me

I lock myself inside, nobody fit blame me

You say forever, shey na lie you lie?

Now I dey here dey wonder why

(Chai, person pikin)

Quiet pain, e dey loud for my soul

You leave me here, now I no dey whole

I wan shout but the words no dey come

This heartbreak don make me feel numb

Quiet pain, e dey choke me for night

I dey ask God if I go dey alright

(Soft whisper)

Maybe one day I go heal

But for now... this thing real

(E choke)
