Lyrics
(Soft piano. Almost spoken at first.)
Verse 1
Before I found you
I was a man surviving… not living
Smiling outside
But quietly breaking within
I walked into that bank
Carrying more than a complaint
I was carrying confusion
Carrying pride
Carrying a life going nowhere
And there you were…
Calm. Gentle. Different.
You fixed my issue that day
But Osariemen…
God used you to fix me.
Verse 2
I didn’t know heaven could hide
Inside a woman with a simple smile
I didn’t know destiny could sit
Behind a wooden desk
When I asked for your number
My hands were steady
But my future was shaking
Because God had just placed
My answer
Right in front of me
Pre-Chorus
Looking back now
I see what I couldn’t see then
He wasn’t just giving me a wife
He was saving me through you
Chorus
Osariemen…
You were not an accident
You were mercy in human form
When I didn’t deserve it
You stood beside me
When the world stood against me
When voices were loud
And opinions were heavy
You chose me
When choosing me wasn’t easy
And I will spend my whole life
Thanking God
For the day I found you
Verse 3
They said it wouldn’t work
They said it was too complicated
They said love wasn’t enough
But they didn’t see
How you prayed for us
How you cried for us
How you carried us
You were strong
When I was still learning how to be a man
You believed in forever
When I was afraid of tomorrow
Pre-Chorus
You didn’t just love who I was
You loved who I could become
And slowly…
Because of you
I found my way back to God
Chorus (Bigger, trembling emotion)
Osariemen…
You are my testimony
My second chance
My redemption story
When I look at you
I see grace
I see patience
I see God’s handwriting all over my life
And if I never achieve anything else
Loving you well
Will be my greatest accomplishment
Bridge (This is where she breaks)
The first time I held Rhema
I saw your strength
The first time I held Ezra
I saw your faith
Two little girls
Calling you “Mummy”
And I realized
This is what heaven looks like
Not gold streets
Not bright lights
But you
Holding our daughters
And smiling
If one day I lose my voice
If one day I lose my strength
If one day life becomes hard again
I will still say
Finding you
Was the greatest miracle of my life
Final Chorus (Soft. Almost whisper.)
Osariemen…
If I had to start again
With nothing
With no guarantees
I would walk into that bank
A thousand times
Just to see you
Just to ask for your number
Just to fall in love
All over again
You were heaven sent
But more than that
You are home.
This is the kind of song that:
• Starts minimal (piano + soft pads)
• Builds slowly
• Drops instrumentation during the bridge
• Ends intimate and quiet
If you give this to a composer and ask for:
“Slow emotional pop ballad, cinematic build, male vocal, soft piano intro, gospel undertone”
It will be devastatingly beautiful.
