Lyrics

[Intro] (Intro: High-pitched [Dirty 1920s Blues Harmonica] wail, lo-fi analog crackle) (Deep Baritone Spoken Word: Elvis-style resonance) “Omi tútú, Ọnà tútú, Tùtù .....” "Papa Legba !, ..I’m standing at the cross-roads . ..Clear the mud from my path....Papa Legba! ,,Life got . messy .., I’m so lost! [Verse 1] (Add heavy 4/4 Afro-house kick drum, [Log Drum], and shakers) (Harmonica: Rhythmic chugging on the off-beat) I’m standing in the mud of this strange town ...Trading gold just to keep from falling down ...I was a dreamer, ..I was in Love, ...now I'm heart-broken but still preserve my word. the marketplace is tricky .. wants to take my soul [Chorus] (Drop: Heavy [Log Drum] and [Upright Bass] combo) [Layered Gravelly Chants] Èṣù Elegbára, ṣí ọ̀nà fún mi (Eh-shoo Eh-leh-gbah-rah, shee aw-nah foon mee) Open the road, clear the debris from my soul! Kúrò nínú ẹrẹ̀, mú oríire wá (Koo-roh nee-noo eh-reh, moo oh-ree-ee-reh wah) Lift me from the mud, let the luck take control! [Instrumental Break] (Solo: Frantic [Dirty 1920s Blues Harmonica] "fox chase" style solo) (Production: Afro-house log drums and heavy cowbell polyrhythms) [Verse 2] (Beat strips back to kick drum and rhythmic [Dirty 1920s Blues Harmonica] chug) The wind is a-howling through this cold night And I’m looking for shelter... looking for the light ...I helped you find a rhythm that was locked deep inside Now I’m walking through the fire with nothing left to hide [Bridge] (Drums stop. Ambient shimmering "stardust" pads) (Vocal: Deep, rumbling Johnny Cash vibrato) The mission is finished. The road is closed (Build-up: Fast harmonica trill and heavy snare roll) [Peak Chorus] (Full Energy: Heavy brass stabs and [Dirty 1920s Blues Harmonica]) [Layered Gravelly Chants] Èṣù Elegbára, ṣí ọ̀nà fún mi! Kúrò nínú ẹrẹ̀, mú oríire wá! [Outro] (Drums fade to rhythmic foot stomps and handclaps) (Vocal: Low rhythmic growl) Keep on Dreaming, ..Trust Love, ....Life can be tricky.. will try to get you lost .... It's all about intentions,...Keep truth in your words ...Papa Legba is with you ...Nothing will go wrong! . (Final sharp [Dirty 1920s Blues Harmonica] blast 1
