“Dear Child” by Brymo is a song from his album Tabula Rasa that pays tribute to his grandmother and the lessons she taught him about the passage of time and the importance of hard work. The lyrics describe her relentless work ethic and the wisdom she shared while highlighting his grandmother’s tireless efforts to provide for her children, working from dawn until dusk, even when her body was weak.
Grandma
Was a very good old lady
She tried and died
Working to feed her grown babies
From dusk to dawn
She laboured for more
Nothing was okay
Nothing was ever enough
She say time
Go heal everything
Because time go kill everything
She said a lifetime
Is enough time
Say if you take time
You go fit to make time
Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so
Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so
Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo
Grandma
Was a very good old lady
Her body been weak
But she no get time
To bе lazy
Although I was young
When she passed away
Thе look in her eyes
Like say she dey talk say
She say time
Go heal everything
Because time go kill everything
She said a lifetime
Is enough time
Person wey dey take time
Go fit to make time
Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so
Omo oh
Te ti gbo
Ohun mo so
Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo laye oh
Ofo
Grandma was a very good old lady
