Who are you talking to
Who is on the phone
Who are you chatting with

The way you smiling na the same way
Wey you dey smile at me na the same way
The way you laughing na the same way
Wey you dey laugh with me
I know that this is a turn off
I know you already fed up
I know one day you go pack up and you will go
I know that this is a turn off
I know you already fed up
I know one day you go pack up
But you should know

That I've been cheated on so many times
Dey don break me before
I don't think that I am normal normal normal anymore
I've been cheated on so many times
Dey don break me before
I don't think that I am normal normal normal anymore
I think I'm insecure

Where are you going to
When are you coming back
Who are you going with
When are you coming back
I wanna go with you

The way you dress up na the same way
Wey you dey dress for me na the same way
The way you baff up na the same way
Wey you dey baff for me
I know that this is a turn off
I know one day you'd be fed up
I know one day you go pack up and you will go
I know that this is a turn off
I know one day you'd be fed up
I know one day you go pack up
But you should know

Wey you dey smile at me na the same way
The way you laughing na the same way




Wey you dey laugh with me

BOTB is hands down one of the best Nigerian Music albums of all time.
The Album centers on Love and it discusses love from all angles: God's love (watching over me), Mother's love (soldier), New love (Nakupenda, Running to You, Beautiful people), Assured Love/marriage (RoJu, Forever, Amen), Unsure Love (Insecure, Faithful, if You no love Me), Dead love (Out of Love)...

It's really hard, these days, to find an album that centers on subject and all its tracks stay true to that purpose. 'Out of Love' is my fave for the record.
