Gentle Giant - Omo Mummy

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
He no dey shout, but him presence dey loud
Gentle breeze wey dey carry cloud
My carbon copy, face no lie—just taller
Same eyes, same jaw, na only height e gather

Eyes like mirror, mind like flame
Solving life like e be simple game
Always thinking, always still
But the boy get iron will

Love for God dey root him deep
Wisdom for days, and vision for keeps

(Pre-Chorus – Soulful)
Omo T baby, him heart still dey feel am
Her voice still dey echo for him calm
For every step wey him take, her love dey guide
He dey smile, but inside… sometimes he dey cry

(Chorus – Call & Response)
Rotiwa, Rotiwa (Oh oh oh)
You carry your mama love, like crown on your shoulder
Rotiwa, God’s fire (Oh oh oh)
You calm but you burn like sun under water

Fixing problems, walking grace
With Jesus in your silent place
Omo T baby, God’s own child
You dey make her proud with every mile

(Verse 2)
He dey cook like say him dey preach love
Every spice na memory from above
When he stir pot, you go feel am true
Na mummy teach am—her love dey inside the food

E dey waka solo, but ee dey draw crowd
Not with noise, but with calm so loud
Friendly smile, but deep like well
Inside that quiet, e get stories to tell

(Bridge – Yoruba blend)
Ko si eni to mo bi o se n rin koja aginju
(No one knows how you walk through deserts so well)
Sugbon Oluwa maw /ɛ/, T baby maw /ɛ/, awa mo /ɛ/
(But the Lord knows you, T baby knows you, we know you)
Omo to fi ‘ife shay foundation
(A child whose life is built on love)
Ati lorun, ati lahyeh, you be real champion
(Heaven and earth both know, you are a real champion)

(Chorus – Repeat)
Rotiwa, Rotiwa (Oh oh oh)
You carry your mama love, like crown on your shoulder
Rotiwa, God’s fire (Oh oh oh)
You calm but you burn like sun under water

Fixing problems, walking grace
With Jesus in your silent place
Omo T baby, God’s own child
You dey make her proud with every mile

(Outro – Spoken)
You be the calm in the storm…
The child that prays and plans…
Looks like me, but deep like she…
Rotiwa, you dey light this world…
With grace, with God, and with legacy.
