[Intro]
City lights flicker, Lagos breathes loud
Ododo Sky leans on the rail, heart still proud
[Verse 1]
Lagos life don’t easy, this isn’t what we planned
I tell my brother I wanna go back home again
We left home to feed home, now hunger is our friend
He says, Brother be strong, Ododo Sky, be strong
I reply, I’m strong; Ododo Sky, you’re strong
But I’m tired of being strong, this city weighs on me
[Chorus]
Ododo Sky, hold on through the Lagos rain
We chased a dream, but the night still aches with pain
If the streets break us, we’ll rise and find our way
Ododo Sky, we’ll make it home someday
[Verse 2]
I’m tired of being strong, I long for home to call
Yet the skyline stays loud, it never lets us fall
Mama’s voice echoes, "stay brave, stay tall"
We move with the wind, Ododo Sky standing tall
[Chorus]
Ododo Sky, hold on through the Lagos rain
We chased a dream, but the night still aches with pain
If the streets break us, we’ll rise and find our way
Ododo Sky, we’ll make it home someday
[Bridge]
One day the harbor will welcome us back
Till then we walk these streets with steady, hopeful track
Ododo Sky, breathe deep, remember your name
The city will bow when you return home again
[Chorus]
Ododo Sky, hold on through the Lagos rain
We chased a dream, but the night still aches with pain
If the streets break us, we’ll rise and find our way
Ododo Sky, we’ll make it home someday
[Outro]
We walk on, Ododo Sky, toward the dawn
