As the name implies, “I Need You” is about longing, reassurance, and emotional honesty. Though it features Ichaba and Milar, Vector directs the song’s heart to his daughter, expressing how deeply he misses her and how committed he is to staying connected. Each artist reflects on personal struggles, growth, and how love inspires them to grow and become better individuals.

[Verse 1: Vector]
Baby, keep it going, keep it going, keep it green
Don't you stop at that red light
Your daddy is a G, raised in lafiaji, you are one with the red right
I came from the barracks, so you know
Our kind of metal no dey rust
And I don't even listen to the pеople saying thing that I'd flush
I put it at the back of my mind
Every goddam thing that I burst
Likе every goddam thing that I lost
Every goddam thing that I lost, but hey
But I know that I may find it, if I rewind it
But this time I gat it together, see how I bind it
I know this much just to be here for you
[Chorus: Ichaba]
I miss you, baby
Know that I'll be here forever waiting, waiting
I miss you, baby (Miss you, baby)
Know that I'll be here forever waiting, waiting, yeah
I know you know, you know, you know
I need you (I need you, baby)
I know you know (I know you know), you know, you know
I need you
[Refrain: Vector, Ichaba]
Yeah
Baby, keep it going, keep it going, keep it green
Don't you stop at that red light (Red light, red light, red light)
You are one with the red right (I know you know oh-oh-oh-oh, red light)
How I can of mental, no dey rust
And I don't even listen to the people saying thing that I'd flush
[Verse 2: Vector]
Huh
Baby, look, I don't mean to have you rattled
But daddy fought a lot of battles
Way before the university, in university, in post university too
But I'm a leo, I'm the kind of the jungle, the universe is me
I speak so to bring the best in you
So baby please know your star sign, know your star sign, know your star sign
I know the universe is you
Look your grandpa left which is a part of me
Which is a part of you, which is part of everything you do
I may behave a little hard on you
I can only be human, that behavior isn't part of you
Meaning you're only as perfect as the other person
God bless you baby
I'm done with lessons
[Outro: Vector, MILARE]
You can only be as perfect as the other person
God bless you baby
I'm done with lessons, yeah
God bless you baby
I'm done with lessons, yeah
What?, answer first
Are you ready?, yes
