Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You used to call me in the midnight
Laugh till the neighbours know my name
Now it’s just ceiling and my ceiling fan
Spinning all my blame
Canceled on you when you dressed nice
Acted like I didn’t really care
Now I’m replaying every foolish word
Talking to your empty chair
[Chorus]
I dey do myself
I know
Push you far then beg you close
Now my chest dey hollow
Hollow
Letting go dey take me slow
All these memories dey play
Like we still dey yesterday
I dey dance with shadow
Shadow
Letting go dey take me slow (oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
We used to share rice by the roadside
You steal the meat
I just dey smile
Now I buy two plates out of habit
Throw one side
Just dey watch it pile
Told you “I’m fine” when I needed you
Pride turn my mouth to stone
Now every corner of this small room
Shouts your name when I’m alone
[Chorus]
I dey do myself
I know
Push you far then beg you close
Now my chest dey hollow
Hollow
Letting go dey take me slow
All these memories dey play
Like we still dey yesterday
I dey dance with shadow
Shadow
Letting go dey take me slow (yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
If I fit rewind that day
I for hold you
I for stay
No more running from my pain
I go face am
I go change
If you hear this song someday
Just know I’m learning from my ways
Even if you no come back
I go love myself at last
[Chorus]
I dey do myself
I know
Push you far then beg you close
Now my chest dey hollow
Hollow
Letting go dey take me slow
All these memories dey play
Like we still dey yesterday
I go rise from shadow
Shadow
Letting go dey heal me slow (heal me slow)

Style
Midtempo Afrobeats groove at ~104 BPM, soft percussion and warm log drums under dreamy electric keys; male vocals upfront with airy female harmonies in the hook. Verses stay intimate and conversational, bass relaxed, guitars doing gentle highlife licks. Chorus opens with wider pads, extra shakers, and subtle call-and-response ad-libs; last hook adds stacked backing vocals and a lifted drum feel for a bittersweet, danceable outro.
