Duade Lyrics

I don't think we realize what this crazy place does to our psyche man you know
Like we don't even have any outlets to talk
Over here we feel like being a man means we have to swallow everything chest everything keep it inside
When I was young they use to ask me what are you doing in the kitchen or guy why are you crying are you a child are you a baby
That's real stuff they used to tell us
So you grow up thinking that you can't talk to anybody you can't be vulnerable you can't express yourself to anyone
And this crazy jungle that we live in again
This mad type of society where you really need to talk you need to find ways to express to open up emotionally
You know they view it as some kind of weakness it's mad
Classic

Mini sane mini ofiɔ
Ba ni magbojo omli
Akɛɛ hii afe hii eh
Ni yei afee yei eh
Akɛɛ hii wor pii

But I got something else to say
You come with me let’s a play game
Where you hide and I seek
To find the meaning
Why you won’t show me the weak in you
You hide and I seek to find the reason
Why you won’t let yourself go baby

Owele wa old duade odo do do do do do do do
Owele wa old duade dadadadadadadada
Owele wa old duade
Take you on a journey
Owele wa old duade
Take you on a journey

Are you not supposed to be a man
Why you crying I don't understand
Shey you need someone to hold your hand
I bury thoughts of being vulnerable
Beneath the sand
She asking questions that's exposing all my inner scams
I feel like letting go make I open up
Previous babes don dey wonder why I'm slow to trust
I put my feelings in the chamber then I load it up
But I never shoot It's like we fear the truth
She trying to take me on a journey and I no dey fight
Like she's taking me to market wey I no dey price
Cos I'm hoping that she'll save me from my own advice
She keeps telling me to take a chance and roll the dice
But this is life always feeling that there's something more
Always asking Wale what is it you running for
My uncle told me you should always make them love you more
Now I know that he was scared and it's not his fault not at all

But I got something else to say
You come with me let’s a play game
Where you hide and I seek
To find the meaning
Why you won’t show me the weak in you
You hide and I seek to find the reason
Why you won’t let yourself go baby

Owele wa old duade odo do do do do do do do
Owele wa old duade dada-dada-dada-dada
Owele wa old duade
Take you on a journey
Owele wa old duade
Take you on a journey

If ya listening it might be too late
You're probably a victim
Of conditioning and too dazed
To wake and smell the bouquet
Still you try rise from grass to grace as if ya Tuface
Weight of the world up on ya shoulders
As you start a new day
I take a mental Polaroid bumping vintage Lupe
As foundation's built on quicksand
Submerge under monsoon rain
And these days stormy seasons last a little longer
Spending more time in traffic
Than reading to my daughter but
I must be stronger cause it hasn't killed this yet
In this place where you here one day
And could be gone the next
Swear that whole Tbills episode
Struck a chord in my chest
If you're living here in Naija
Ya some form of depressed
Yes you heard correct
It's a wonder how we manage
To be more concerned with if Wiz
Is dating Tiwa savage
Than the interior decorations of our mental palace
The stress is post traumatic
I pray my son doesn't catch it but

But I got something else to say
You come with me let’s a play game
Where you hide and I seek
To find the meaning
Why you won’t show me the weak in you
You hide and I seek to find the reason
Why you won’t let yourself go baby

Owele wa old duade odo do do do do do do
Owele wa old duade dada-dada-dada-dada
Owele wa old duade
Take you on a journey
Owele wa old duade
Take you on a journey
Take you on a journey eh eh eh yeah eh
Take you on a journey eh eh eh eh eh eh eh eh
Take you on a journey
Take you on a journey
