Full Lyrics: Morowore by Olamide
All my life been on the road
And it’s dark and very cold
Don’t even know when I’m coming home
When duty calls I must to show
Didn’t know the cons and all the pros
Before I left my comfort zone
Don’t even know when I’m coming home
When duty calls I must to show
But Baba mo rowo re ninu aye mi (Father, I see your hand in my life)
Baba mo rowo re ninu aye mi (Father, I see your hand in my life)
Ah Baba mo rowo re ninu aye mi (Ah, Father, I see your hand in my life)
Aye mi dara oh mo wa dupẹ o (My life is good, oh, I have come to give thanks)
Aye ti mo wa at’owo re ni (The life I have is by your hand)
Igba ti n ba lọ ma jẹ ko ṣẹyin re Baba (When I leave, let it not be without you, Father)
Baba mo rọwọ rẹ ninu aye mi (Father, I see your hand in my life)
Aye mi dara oh mo wa dupe o (My life is good, oh, I have come to give thanks)
Ona ope mi po (The way I give thanks is many)
(Po, po, po)
Grateful for your love (Lo-lo, love)
I don’t care how much (Mu-mu, much)
I would trade it all gongo a sọ
Hustle on my brother don’t stop
Now we cruising inna drop top
We go celebrate and we gon pop
We gon pop, we gon pop, we gon pop
I been de H if you see my throat
Skeleton 101 in my coat
But I de paddle and row my boat
Now we driving people crazy like woah, woah oh
Young dreamer don’t ever stop reaching for the stars, woah oh
And if you ever fall you go land on the cloud
Been on the road
And it’s dark and very cold
Don’t even know when I’m coming home
When duty calls I must to show
Didn’t know the cons and all the pros
Before I left my comfort zone
Don’t even know when I’m coming home
When duty calls I must to show
But Baba mo rowo re ninu aye mi (Father, I see your hand in my life)
Baba mo rowo re ninu aye mi (Father, I see your hand in my life)
Ah Baba mo rowo re ninu aye mi (Ah, Father, I see your hand in my life)
Aye mi dara oh mo wa dupẹ o (My life is good, oh, I have come to give thanks)
Aye ti mo wa at’owo re ni (The life I have is by your hand)
Igba ti n ba lo ma je ko seyin re Baba (When I leave, let it not be without you, Father)
Baba mo rowo re ninu aye mi (Father, I see your hand in my life)
Aye mi dara oh mo wa dupe o (My life is good, oh, I have come to give thanks)
