This used to be one of my favourite songs. I remember jamming to this around the early 2000s. It is one of those songs that tried to warn younger men about the wrongs the other sex was capable of...or was it a wrong..or was Dijini just a wimp. I doubt it but whatever.

I use to be so scared of the lyrics weirdly, on several occasions, these experiences found their way to my reality. They don't run away from fear, run towards it. Break through it. So in a way, every heartbreak song prepares you for the future and that future can only be made when you scatter those walls of fear.

Lyrics

If i die now, I go happy say,
Say when I dey this world, I don fall in love,
Which one u dey e
Wey u dey treat me so,
I don beg, I don do everything
But u tell me say u need time and
U no fit dey wit me
Na so i vow,
Anyway I dey go, Ewo!
If u help me see Ego,
make u tell am i don go,
She no look me and so,
don pack my load go Ewo!
(2xe)
No be say I no show how I feel,
No be say I no ever show you say I dey real,
Everybody don know say I fit do anything for you,
I go die for you,
Everybody dey laff me cos dem know u be my life,
I don say I go marry,
cos in u I see my wife,
Baby oh!
I go take am 4 bus,
I go take am 4 train,
For this place I no fit stay eh! Ewo!
(2xe)
I know say u dey hear my voice,
cos this song na im i write for you,
I dey go find one place where i go hide my head,
cos i wan start my whole life anew,
She don leave me and so so,
Eh Eh Eh Ewo!
Ego Ego Ewo! (see ego tell am i don go)
Why u do me so
Why u do me like this oh!
I dey beg, I dey beg, I dey pack my load go
Oh Oh!
If i die now I go happy say,
Say when i dey this world I don fall in love

I remember this song so well and I loved it then. I had an issue with the lyrics, yea! I felt it was also weird and somehow fast as well. However, i still loved listening to Ego those days.

It was a wonderful performance amidst the obvious timing or synchronisation challenge you had.


  • Great Doc, I know how busy and tight your schedules are, however, I'd suggest that before you post on any community in Hive, try to check the pinned posts in case there's any new information or to follow the community’s rules. It'll actually be nice to stick to it.

  • We are already in the 27th week, but the major concern is that you didn't use any of the Afri-tunes Community's tag and the Indiaunited tag (as contained in the pinned post). That's why it's important to cross check in case of new information.

  • I'd suggest that you edit them ASAP and add the necessary tags.

  • Also, the lyrics you posted, if you can provide the source (citation), it'll make it perfect.

I hope to hear from you soon

The singing doctor is what I'd call this guy, if medicine doesn't work, he can always sing to his patients

Great choice of song! ❤️ I haven't heard this song for a few years now. You have a lovely voice too. It's like you wanted to cry towards the ending, who broke your heart? 😂 Talk to mama😂

You seem to have missed your timing at some parts though. What you sang wasn't in tune with what you're playing. You can be cautious of that in your next performance. Well done!
