Write an Afrobeats crossover English male vocal lyric set, leaning into playful, warm collective joy. Music parameters: 118 BPM, D major, core instrumentation includes call-and-response talking drums, modified bamboo balafon, palm-muted highlife guitar, bouncy 808 bass blended with dunun, and soft shekere polyrhythms. Theme centers on a street-side suya stall cook who invents a special spice blend that makes every customer share their wildest, silliest dream, from a teen who wants to design Ankara print spacesuits to a grandma training to win the national braiding championship. Weave in casual Pidgin phrases, call-and-response ad-libs, and small, vivid imagery: sizzling suya skewers, neon stall signs, giddy customers passing cold zobo drinks around. Tone is playful, hopeful, and laced with gentle ancestral pride. Follow the structure: intro groove, 2 verses, 2 choruses, free-flowing bridge, 2 closing choruses, extended party outro.

歌词

[Intro]
[Verse]
Smoke is rising from the pan
I’m the magic suya man
Secret spice inside the tin
Let the dreaming now begin
Young boy says he wants to fly
Ankara prints across the sky
Spacesuit made of wax and gold
Braver than the stories told
[Chorus]
Oya chop and start to dream
Life is sweeter than it seem
Feel the rhythm in your feet
Dancing on this dusty street
One taste and you fly away
No more wahala for today
Share the joy and pass it round
Best vibrations to be found
[Verse]
Mama G is in the queue
Drinking zobo, something new
She wants that braiding crown
Best fingers in the town
Cornrows like a golden map
Waking from her morning nap
Neon signs are glowing bright
We own the middle of the night
[Chorus]
Oya chop and start to dream
Life is sweeter than it seem
Feel the rhythm in your feet
Dancing on this dusty street
One taste and you fly away
No more wahala for today
Share the joy and pass it round
Best vibrations to be found
[Bridge]
Talking drums begin to speak
Strength for every heart that's weak
What is your wildest plan?
Tell the magic suya man
I see the future in the flame
Nobody here will stay the same
Oya! (Oya!)
Dream! (Dream!)
Abeg, just believe it
[Chorus]
Oya chop and start to dream
Life is sweeter than it seem
Feel the rhythm in your feet
Dancing on this dusty street
One taste and you fly away
No more wahala for today
Share the joy and pass it round
Best vibrations to be found
[Chorus]
Oya chop and start to dream
Life is sweeter than it seem
Feel the rhythm in your feet
Dancing on this dusty street
One taste and you fly away
No more wahala for today
Share the joy and pass it round
Best vibrations to be found
[Outro]
