[Nigerian Pidgin] When We’re Gone (Human Anthem)

Lyrics

[Intro – Soft piano + distant choir]
Hmmmm…
Ohhh…
We dey here for just small time…
Wetin we go leave behind…

[Verse 1]
We dey waka this road together, even as days dey waka pass,
Na just one heartbeat in forever, na just one song under sky.
All the things we dey hold tight, all we think sey we get,
Dem go fade enter silence — but love no go die.

We fit lift tired heart?
We fit help person stand?
We fit give small more?
We fit reach with open hand?

[Pre-Chorus]
At the end e no be gold,
No be power we dey hold,
Na the lives we touch as we dey go…

[Chorus / Hook – UNIVERSAL ANTHEM]
🌍 When we don go — wetin go remain?
Love we give or silent pain?
Every heart, every life we know —
Na the world we leave when we don go.

🌍 When we don go — dem go rise?
Stronger hearts and open eyes?
Every soul we help become —
Na the future when we don go.

👉 (Soft Echo Layer)
When we don go… when we don go…

[Verse 2]
This world we get dey fragile, but na beautiful and bright,
Every small kindness dey bring another light.
Nobody dey waka alone if we choose to see,
Your life and mine na one story.

Teach the pikin near you,
Show am how to care,
Give am more than knowledge —
Give am hope to share.

[Pre-Chorus]
Wetin we plant for human heart,
Outlast all we be,
E go echo pass our days…

[Chorus / Hook – BIGGER LIFT]
🌍 When we don go — wetin go remain?
Love we give or silent pain?
Every heart, every life we know —
Na the world we leave when we don go.

🌍 When we don go — dem go rise?
Stronger hearts and open eyes?
Every soul we help become —
Na the future when we don go.

👉 (Choir Layer)
Rise… rise… dem go rise…

[Bridge – Choir + Global Voices]
(Soft → Massive Build)
Ohhh…

We be bridge from now to forever…

Raise your voice — for those wey dey come,
Every daughter, every son.
Wetin we give go be their way,
We dey shape tomorrow today.

No more fear, no more divide,
We be one — we rise as one.

[Final Chorus / Outro – FULL HUMAN ANTHEM]
🌍 When we don go — wetin go remain?
Love we give or silent pain?
Every heart, every life we know —
Na the world we leave when we don go.

🌍 When we don go — dem go rise,
With our hope for their eyes.
Every soul we help become —
Na the future when we don go.

👉 (Final Choir Chant)
We be one… we be one…

[Outro – Whisper + Piano Fade]
We dey here only…
To lift each other…
