Lyrics

Drop

O ya kule

O ya kule

Verse 1

Ro ya

I am moving south

Dust on my leather sandals

Hot sun

Burning through the cotton

Venda soil

Lagos blood

My heart beats heavy

Steady

Ready for the road

Walking

I am walking

I am walking

Chorus

O ya kule

O ya kule

Moving far away

Nne ndo neta

O ya kule

O ya kule

Moving far away

Nne ndo neta

Drop

O ya kule

O ya kule

Nne ndo neta

Nne ndo neta

Verse 2

Omo

Water in the bowl

Wash my tired hands

Cold metal

Silver coins in my pocket

Broken dreams

New beginnings

Bitter breath

Strong spirit

I carry the weight

Wait

Wait for the rain to fall

Down

Falling down

Coming down

Chorus

O ya kule

O ya kule

Moving far away

Nne ndo neta

O ya kule

O ya kule

Moving far away

Nne ndo neta

Drop

O ya kule

O ya kule

Nne ndo neta

Nne ndo neta

Bridge

Vha hashu

My people

Vha hashu

My brothers

Vha hashu

My sisters

Going back home

Far

So far

Chorus

O ya kule

O ya kule

Moving far away

Nne ndo neta

O ya kule

O ya kule

Moving far away

Nne ndo neta

Drop

O ya kule

O ya kule

Nne ndo neta

Nne ndo neta
