You know that feeling when love hits so hard you can’t tell if you’re floating or drowning? Seyi Shay and Timaya capture it perfectly on “Killing Me Softly”, a mid-tempo Afrobeats gem that has both artists admitting they’re hopelessly drunk on this natural high without touching a bottle. Seyi’s melodic vocals blend with Timaya’s signature dancehall style to create a rhythmic groove about affection.

[Intro]
Baby
I never thought I could say this
But this is for everyone that doesn't know to
(It's Del B on the beat)
Oluwa lo seyi oh
[Verse 1: Seyi Shay]
I can't even compare
I've never been loved like this
And I'm going nowhere
Yeah, yeah
See lailai to lailai
Baby I can't let go
This love no be moi-moi
Yeah, yeah
You're my natural high, boy
And I can't sleep at night, boy
You're my natural high, boy
No, I can't sleep at night, boy
[Chorus: Seyi Shay]
And you're killing me, killing me, killing me softly
The way you dey love me, e be like I wan die
And you're killing mе, killing me killing me softly
The way you dеy love me, e be like I wan die

Del B, leggo!
