Worlasi Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

So na so?
So just a week ago
Nyekple wo afiya, nukokom
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3jo
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3

Me den ma paddy Gideon
Always roaming around

Gideon and W, we the talk of the town
All day, all night
We causing trouble around
I can't believe that you gone
I feel like you still around
You scratch my back and though I never scratch your back
You kept scratching mine, cause
You couldn't stand the fact
That I'm feeling bad
Gidi always had my back
You still alive dawg
Tell them, you still alive in my heart

So na so?
So just a week ago
Me den you dey here
We dey smoke
We dey drink
We dey laf
We dey spy, all them pretty girls
Passing by
I can't say bye

I still feel like you here
Make I dey bore
I dey make you dey bore
But when the sun rise
We put it all, behind our backs
And, we moving on
Now that's a friend that I'm dying for

But na so
Death could be so close
Nyekple wo afiya nukokom
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3jo jo
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3jo jo
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3jo
Kaka ma seko, wo b3n3

Hey look now
I be anti-so, so leave me alone
I no dey want anybody for my body
So, go, go now them all go
Now you all alone
Love the ones closer
Share with the ones closer
Be there, don't be scared to commit
If you dey there wey you hurt
You go learn from it
Don't be scared, but rather reminisce
All the good times that you had from it

Don't wait till I die, before you come to my funeral I said, don't wait till I die before you come to my funeral
Call me now make we commot have a good time
Love, hug, cause, soon enough
All the love ones that you know now go soon pass

So na so?
So just a week ago
Me den you dey here
We dey smoke
We dey drink
We dey laf
We dey spy, all them pretty girls
Passing by
I can't say bye

I still feel like you here
Make I dey bore
I dey make you dey bore
But when the sun rise
We put it all, behind our backs
And, we moving on
Now that's a friend that I'm dying for

But na so
Death could be so close
Nyekple wo afiya nukokom
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3jo jo
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3jo jo
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3jo jo

Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3 jo
Kaka ma seko, wo b3 n3 jo

Overall Meaning

The song "Na So" by Worlasi is a tribute to a friend who has passed away. The lyrics convey the deep sense of loss and the feeling of disbelief that someone who was recently alive is no longer here. The chorus "So na so?" is a rhetorical question that wonders if death could be so close and if everything can change in just a week.

The verses describe the memories that the singer has of his friend, Gideon, and the times they spent together. The song talks about their mischievous activities, like smoking and drinking and causing trouble around town. The singer expresses his regret for not reciprocating Gideon's kindness and support and acknowledges that he still feels his friend's presence around him.

The song's bridge takes a philosophical turn and advises the listeners to cherish their loved ones while they're still alive and not wait until it's too late to show them affection. The lyrics urge us to embrace our relationships and not be afraid to commit to them, even though they might sometimes hurt us.

In summary, "Na So" is a reflective and poignant tribute to a departed friend. It encourages listeners to appreciate their loved ones while they are still alive and not take any moment for granted because life is fragile and unpredictable.

All the loved ones you have now will soon pass away
