Track 05 of 15
Epic, Orchestral, Mythic. A relationship argument escalated to the level of Gods (The Mountain vs. The Ocean).
A collision between two fundamental forces: Order (Him) vs. Chaos (Her). Backed by a full orchestra, we ask: Can love survive when two gods fight for one small crown?
"You are the stone..."
"You are the storm..."
"Why you dey try to cage the ocean?"
"Why you dey try to drown the mountain?"
I am the Titan wey set the constellation
I write the code of the whole of creation
My love na gravity, e hold your world together
I give you structure to make us last forever
I build the temple... you say the walls dey choke
I set the orbit... you say the path don broke
I am the mountain, I give you solid ground
But you just want to scatter everything I found.
You call am structure? I call am prison-yard!
You say your love na gravity? E just dey pull me hard!
I be the river, I suppose to change and flow
Na from my chaos the new-new life dey grow!
You are the frozen time... I am the breeze
You want disciple wey go bow down on her knees!
This "order" wey you build... e no get space for me
You want a statue, but I was born to be free!
(Male): I say, "We settle!"
(Female): You say, "I no go gree!"
(Male): I say, "We build this world!"
(Female): You mean, "You no go build ME?!"
(Male): I say, "We TURN!" (Align with my design!)
(Female): You KNOW dey TURN! (You just dey tie me with your line!)
(Male): You want to RUN! (Run go scatter all my plans!)
(Female): I want to RUN! (Run go free, 'cause you dey tie my hands!)
(Male): You be the FIRE wey dey burn my holy ground!
(Female): You be the STONE wey dey hold my spirit down!
(Both): We be Two Gods wey dey fight for one small crown...
(Both): And this our world... e dey burn down!
You want me stable? You want my praise?
I am the current, I am the wave!
You are the old-god, stuck in your cave!
You say, "Come find me." I'm standing right here, na you bring frustration!
I'm not your project, I'm not your slave
The love I'm asking for... na the one you never gave!
You say "I'm still here like a statue."
But na prison be that, I swear I no dey chat you!
You want a queen, but you build a cell!
This perfect "order"... na your own kind of hell!
You call it order, I call it survival code
You call it prison, I call it a stabilized abode!
I'm seeing your freedom, I'm seeing the decay
You don't want a partner, you want to fly away!
You talk about the flow, but you're just pure Entropy
You want to scatter energy 'til nothing dey to see!
I gave you logic, I gave you the form
But you want to be the hurricane, destroying the norm!
You want the new life? Nah, you just want the void
Every structure I put, e must be destroyed!
I'm the Mountain, I measure the span
You are the Whirlwind, you have no final plan!
I held you steady when the stars were collapsing
But you call my gravity trapping and grasping!
This final fracture... you caused the divine schism
You confuse my commitment for my mechanism!
(Male): I just want peace... I just want order...
I gave you everything I ever thought to offer...
(Female): Your "peace" na silence... your "order" na border...
You want my worship... but I am not your daughter...
(Both): How... how we go fit survive this?
(Male): You want to RUN! (Run go scatter all my plans!)
(Female): I want to RUN! (Run go free, 'cause you dey tie my hands!)
(Male): You be the FIRE wey dey burn my holy ground!
(Female): You be the STONE wey dey hold my spirit down!
(Both): We be Two Gods wey dey fight for one small crown...
(Both): And this our world... e dey burn down!
The Mountain... The Ocean...
Why you no fit... just... stay?
Why you no fit... just... move?
