Intro (Naija style)
Soft synth pad, light congas, distant guitar pluck
Prince Romantic on the beat
Ah‑ah, ah‑ah, yeah
Elssie, Elssie, ooh
Nexa Black UG, no dulling!

Verse 1
Sunlight paint your face, you dey glow like dawn
Walking through the crowd, all my wahala gone
Sweet like summer rain, you dey calm my storm
When you whisper low, my whole world transform

Pre‑Chorus
Baby hold my hand, make the night remember
Your touch dey warm like ember
I go sing your name forever
Elssie, you my center
---
Chorus (Naija bounce)
Elssie, Elssie, you dey make me sing
Body like blessing, you be my queen
Elssie, Elssie, you dey light the scene
I go praise you loud, you sabi the thing
(ad‑libs: “yeah,” “ooh,” “my baby,” “no wahala”)

Verse 2
City lights dey shine the fire in your eyes
Every step you take, you dey turn lows to highs
Your laughter sweet pass melody wey flies
Hold me close tonight, make the stars baptize

Pre‑Chorus Variation
Move slow, baby, let the rhythm guide us
Heartbeat sync, no need to hide us
I go hold you tight, no other beside us
Elssie, you my compass
Bridge
Falsetto rise, whisper in your ear
Tell the whole wide world, make dem hear
From Lagos to skyline, dem go cheer
Elssie, my love, you so near

Rap Break (Naija cadence)
Girl you steady, steady like the tide
Every move you make, you dey give me life
No pretence, no lie, you my vibe
Elssie in my prayers, Elssie in my life

Drums pull back, bass hum low
Call her name, make the whole place know
Elssie, Elssie, shine and glow
I go praise you, everywhere I go

Ah‑ah, ah‑ah, Elssie
Elssie, Elssie, ooh
Nexa Black UG again, Naija vibes!
