Static Adura

[Verse 1]
Voicenote lands when the Old Kent Road is sleeping
Sounds like Mama's humming through the cracks in the ceiling
Her adura built a fortress 'round this council flat I'm leasing
While the sirens paint the window, tell a whole different reason

[Chorus]
She dey pray for me, from a thousand miles of static
Says my name like it's a blueprint, not a habit
Omo mi, build it strong, no dramatics
Concrete garden blooming in the automatic

[Verse 2]
They see the glass tower, they don't see the deep foundation
Just the headline glow, the empty celebration
Every brick I lay, I hear her quiet affirmation
'Shebi you know say pressure make the diamond formation?'

[Bridge]
Sometimes the girders groan under the weight of this whole structure
Dial her number just to hear her voice fix up my posture

[Outro]
Her adura holds the building
The whole damn building...
