ONE BIG FAMILY
*Verse 1*
Mama dey call us when food don ready, Sunday rice dey steam,
Papa voice deep like drum, e dey guide our dream.
Rain fall, we run comot, barefoot for compound,
Na Bénin street we grow, we be royal for our own ground.
*Pre-Chorus*
If I close my eye now, I still dey hear una...
*Chorus*
Ahh Agonor pikin dem, love full our belle,
Under Peter Egbemitse roof, nobody ever fail.
Story by firelight, prayer before sleep,
Na so e make our heart strong and deep.
Even if life loud, I go find my way back home,
Na our name we carry, na so we go grow.
Peter Egbemitse Agonor children, we be one blood,
Na this root dey hold us like flood.
*Verse 2*
Old photo don fade small, but memory fresh die,
Hand-me-down cloth, but pride dey our eye.
Papa teach us make we stand tall, no be shaky,
Mama teach us grace, make we gentle and wavy.
School fees wahala come, but we no gree break,
Family na our shelter, na our backbone we take.
*Chorus*
Ahh Agonor pikin dem, love full our belle,
Under Peter Egbemitse roof, nobody ever fail.
Story by firelight, prayer before sleep,
Na so e make our heart strong and deep.
*Verse 3*
Now we don scatter small, Lagos, Abuja, abroad,
But when phone ring, na "na family first" be the code.
Birthday, burial, we go show face no matter,
Because blood na water, e dey thicker than matter.
When work stress me, when road tough like stone,
I go remember compound, I go remember home.
*Bridge*
Years go pass, our hair go turn grey,
But Agonor name no go fade away.
From pikin to papa, from daughter to son,
Na one family tree till life done.
*Final Chorus*
Ahh Agonor pikin dem, love full our belle,
Under Peter Egbemitse roof, na heaven e be well.
Village voice dey call me, e dey pull me back home,
Na this love dey guide me wherever I roam.
Peter Egbemitse Agonor children, from morning till night,
We be fruit of one tree, we be family light.
*Outro*
So make we lift our voice, make we sing am strong,
Peter Egbemitse Agonor, na for you this song.
