Lyrics
Is this what you wanted or you're acting fine
Questioning if the current situation is the desired outcome or a facade
Told me that you're okay but I know you're lying,
Expressing doubt about the other person's well-being despite their claim of being okay
I know it's my fault I shouldn't cross the line
Admitting personal responsibility for a transgression and acknowledging a boundary crossed
Cross the line
Emphasizing the act of crossing a line
That cigarette that you found wasn't mine Walahi
Denying ownership of a cigarette found, pledging sincerity with "Walahi" (an oath)
You know I don't play I don't do that type
Asserting a refusal to engage in certain behaviors
Trust me I don't want it to just end like that
Expressing a desire for a resolution rather than an abrupt ending
No my darling
Reaffirming a connection with a term of endearment ("darling")
Open your door odo
Requesting the other person to open their door, symbolizing emotional accessibility
I Dey your door odo
Stating the speaker's presence at the other person's door
I no go leave until you tell me wetin Dey odo
Committing to stay until the other person shares what's happening ("wetin Dey odo")
Me I Dey your door odo
Reiterating the speaker's proximity to the other person's door
I no go run odo
Declaring an intention not to flee the situation
I no fit leave if you no tell me wetin Dey odo
Stating an inability to leave without knowing what's going on
Gimme something
Requesting something, possibly seeking understanding or resolution
Sho working
Confirming that something is happening or progressing
This your big baka no be small thing
Complimenting the other person's prominent physical feature ("big baka")
You Dey play my blues and my rhythm
Indicating the impact of the other person on the speaker's emotions and music ("blues and rhythm")
With the way you touching my button
Describing the physical interaction and its effect
I know you're wide awake let me one more time
Addressing the other person's wakefulness, seeking another chance
Do me this favor one last time
Pleading for one more favor before a potential separation
Make I Dey for side
Expressing a willingness to be present and supportive
That cigarette that you found wasn't mine Walahi
Repeating the denial of ownership of a cigarette with emphasis on sincerity
You know I don't play I don't do that type
Reiterating a refusal to engage in certain behaviors
Trust me I don't want it to just end like that
Expressing a desire for a more thoughtful resolution
No my darling
Reaffirming a connection with a term of endearment ("darling")
Open your door odo
Requesting access to the other person's emotions or thoughts
I Dey your door odo
Affirming the speaker's presence at the other person's door
I no go leave until you tell me wetin Dey odo
Committing to stay until the other person shares what's happening ("wetin Dey odo")
Me I Dey your door odo
Reiterating the speaker's proximity to the other person's door
I no go run odo
Declaring an intention not to flee the situation
I no fit leave if you no tell me wetin Dey odo
Stating an inability to leave without knowing what's going on
