(Oya, clear the way)
For the man who gives it all away
Eyitayo, listen now
You dey pour into everyone, you never ask for jara
You carry the weight of the world, never making wahala
From the family to the friends, to the strangers on the street
You keep on giving, darling, you make the life so sweet
Quietly you shine, you don’t need no big applause
That is why I love you, baby, simply just because
Oh, Eyitayo, it’s your day, let the music play
You’re the king of my heart, in every single way
Happy birthday to the one who leads with so much love
You’re a blessing, my Ayomi, sent from up above
Everything you given out, may it pour back to you
Double portion of the joy, and peace in all you do
And when the world is heavy and the road is getting long
You stay my rock, you stay my heartbeat, you my song
Even when you’re tired, you still save the best for me
The gentlest part of your soul, that is what I see
No dulling today, we go dance until the night
My fine boy, my hero, you shine so bright
Oh, Eyitayo, it’s your day, let the music play
You’re the king of my heart, in every single way
Happy birthday to the one who leads with so much love
You’re a blessing, my Ayomi, sent from up above
Everything you given out, may it pour back to you
Double portion of the joy, and peace in all you do
You deserve the world and more, yeah you do
Every good thing, Eyitayo, coming back to you
More grace, more life, more fire in your soul
You make my broken pieces feel so bright and whole
Oh, Eyitayo, it’s your day, let the music play
You’re the king of my heart, in every single way
Happy birthday to the one who leads with so much love
You’re a blessing, my Ayomi, sent from up above
Everything you given out, may it pour back to you
Double portion of the joy, and peace in all you do
Yeah, Eyitayo!
More life to you, my king
See this one oh, the man of the year!
We celebrate you today, and everyday
Ayomi, you are the best
(E choke!)
Amen.
