Before Monday - BreastMilk (Official Audio)

BreastMilk Music Before Monday [Intro – Sunday Night, 11:48 PM] Ei… Sunday don finish again. Everybody dey go house. Some people dey sleep with peace… Some of us dey calculate tomorrow before tomorrow even come. Chale, look my life. Last year, I thought by now… Things go be different. [Beat begins softly] [Verse 1 – ] I remember when the plans were plenty When the future used to look so bright Now I dey count the days by problems And I dey count my money every night Something change along the way, chale I can't even point to where it start One day I dey dream about tomorrow Next day, tomorrow dey break my heart The work no dey bring the same reward The people wey I trust no dey around The little peace I used to carry Somehow disappear without a sound I dey walk beside the roadside But my mind dey miles away Everybody get somewhere to go Me, I just dey find my way [Pre-Chorus – ] How things turn like this? When did the road get so long? I been trying to hold it together But some nights, I no feel strong [Chorus – ] Sunday night, my mind no rest Too many things dey sit for my chest I look behind, I look ahead Still I dey wonder where my life dey head But Monday morning go come again New day, new road, new chance to begin Even if my pocket empty tonight I go wake up and give life one more try [Background choir – ] One more try… One more try… [Verse 2 – ] The rent dey wait, the light bill dey wait And the promise I made Mama dey wait I tell her, “Soon, things go better” But I no know the date My friends dey ask me how the music dey go I say, “We dey push, chale, we dey grow” But some of the songs wey I write at night Na the only place I fit let my tears show I see people moving, I no blame them Everybody get their own race But sometimes when I check my own position I feel like time dey run away I no need for mansion by tomorrow I no need for everybody to know my name I just want the people wey I love To stop seeing worry for my face [Pre-Chorus – ] How things turn like this? When did the road get so long? I been trying to hold it together But some nights, I no feel strong [Chorus – ] Sunday night, my mind no rest Too many things dey sit for my chest I look behind, I look ahead Still I dey wonder where my life dey head But Monday morning go come again New day, new road, new chance to begin Even if my pocket empty tonight I go wake up and give life one more try [Bridge – Maybe I no need to solve my whole life tonight. Maybe I just need to reach my room. Wash my face. Sleep small. And stand up tomorrow. [Melodic vocal – ] I know say I dey tired I know say the road be rough But the fact say I still dey here Means I never give up [Inner choir – You still get time… You still get time… [Final Chorus – Sunday night, my mind no rest But I no go let this fear take my breath I look behind, I look ahead And I still believe in the road I dey tread Monday morning go come again New day, new strength, new chance to begin I no know how, but I go try One more time before the sun goes high [Choir – ] One more try… One more day… We go find our way… [Outro – .] Chale… It's almost Monday. I no get all the answers. But tomorrow… I go try again. One more try… [End]
