Lyrics
The salt-stained Nitel phone card from '09
Still dey for my wallet, next to your passport size.
They talk say you don't keep to the line,
But na the same pride wey be your own, wey be mine.
[Chorus]
So make you no call Femi name for my front
You no see the squall wey carry am go
You no feel the pressure wey bend him whole chart
[Verse 2]
You text me "Omo, the signal weak pass"
...then nothing for two whole months, that was the last.
I still hear the Tin Can Island horn in my sleep,
promise be anchor wey I no fit keep.
[Bridge]
We suppose meet for the horizon line, you and me.
Now which latitude you dey, I no fit even see.
[Outro]
Just...
Make you no call him name.
About Bayo Verse
Raised by the hum of the Apapa ports in Lagos, Bayo Verse's smooth afropop was forged during his five years as a navigator in the Nigerian Navy. His songs are logbook entries from long-distance love, mapping the space between military discipline and romantic vulnerability. He left the sea to make music, but the horizon line—and the feeling of waiting for landfall—is still in every note he sings.
