🎵 Ladi the Corn Seller
By [Godday)
Intro
Ladi -Love is deep beyond the ubderstanding of men ooh Ladi
Verse 1
I saw her by the roadside, under the fading sun
Smoke rising in the twilight, her work was never done
With golden corn in baskets, her laughter filled the air
And though her hands were calloused, she moved with so much care
Pre-Chorus
People passed her by like she was just a face
But I saw something deeper, in her quiet grace
Chorus
Oh Ladi, the corn seller, my queen without a crown
Your fire burns like embers, in this little town
You roast your dreams with courage, though the world walks by
Ladi, my sweet Ladi, you caught this poor heart's eye
Verse 2
She never asked for diamonds, just enough to eat
Yet every cob she roasted felt like royalty to me
In torn ankara wrapper, with braids swept to the side
She sold a piece of heaven with every smile so wide
Pre-Chorus
You don’t need silver to shine in this night
Your beauty’s in your struggle, your soul is the light
Chorus
Oh Ladi, the corn seller, my angel in disguise
You taught me love is simple, it don’t need fancy ties
You smell like smoke and sunshine, and truth that never lies
Ladi, my sweet Ladi, you opened up my skies
Bridge (Pidgin-English blend)
Ladi my baby, na you dey burst my brain
Even with sweat wey dey fall like rain
Na your love dey sweet pass sugarcane
I no go leave you, no be play, no be game
Verse 3
I’ll build a house of laughter, with walls made of song
Where your fire keeps us warm, no matter what goes wrong
You gave me strength with silence, a queen who never knew
That the corn she sold for naira was worth more than gold too
Final Chorus
Oh Ladi, the corn seller, your name is etched in stars
No Bentley, no big titles, but you're richer than the czars
I’ll love you till forever, till time forgets to fly
Ladi, my sweet Ladi, you’re the reason why
Outro (Softly)
Ladi... my Ladi...
Corn seller with a heart so wide
Under heaven’s light, you’re my bride...
Forever by your roadside...
