Almost (Wetin We Be) by OnnaIvy - Zona

Lyrics

[Verse 1 – Male ]

It start like play, I no even notice

Late night talks turn to early morning focus

I dey feel something, but I no wan rush it

You dey my mind steady, like say na habit

I swear, the vibe too pure

But silence build wall wey love fit cure

I dey try talk, but you dey shift

And me sef, I dey form strong, I no fit admit

[Verse 2 – Female

You saw through me, I can’t deny

I felt peace whenever you come by

But I dey fear say you no feel am the same

So I carry my heart, comot from the game

I act cool, but e pain me lowkey

I miss how you used to talk soft to me

Now we no dey talk, and e dey weird

But my feelings never disappear

[Pre-Chorus – Both (Call & response)]

Male:

Wetin we be? We no talk am clear

Female:

I feel you deep, but I act like I no care

Both:

Small misunderstanding, we let am scatter

We ghost each other, but the feelings still dey matter

[Chorus – Both]

We were almost something, almost love

Almost sweet, but never enough

We let silence steal the spark

Now we dey walk like strangers in the dark

Wetin we be, if not “almost”?

Na that “almost” I miss the most

We were fire, but no flame

Now I dey call you, hoping you feel the same

[Verse 3 – Male]

You just change, no word, you ghost me

I dey wonder if I mess up unknowingly

I ask for help, you vex say I dey pressure

But I no sabi say your own stress dey full measure

I no mean to add to your pain

I just thought we dey ride the same lane

But I see am now—e get why you withdraw

I still dey wait if we fit restart from before

[Bridge – Female (solo)]

I no go lie, I miss the way we vibe

No one dey hear me the way you did that time

If you fit forgive my distance

Maybe we fit give this thing one more chance

I know say I hurt you small

But this my call na from the heart, not just mouth talk

[Final Chorus – Both in harmony]

We were almost something, almost true

If you felt it too, then maybe we still do

I no wan lose you to pride again

If we talk am out, maybe love go reign

Wetin we be, if not “almost”?

Na that “almost” I miss the most

If we fit talk, if we fit try

Maybe we no go end with just goodbye
