I know the tone of your call
So don't pretend as if I don't know you
Your call carries the tone of an horror movie
That gives sleepless nights

When you call
You come with a smiling face
To show the beauty beyond
And how everlasting you are

You think I don't know you
You are coloured with fake smiles
And always walk about with dark clothes like a widow's wardrobe
Is it not you that called Musa Yar' Adua and the likes of Oronto Douglas?

I know the tone of your call
And when it's answered
Even couples who hadn't spoken for a year
Hold hands to shed tears
And silence creeps into their heart

I know you perfectly
So I won't stop for you
But you will stop for me
To drive me to old age
With no haste

But I know, one day
I shall answer your call
Because we shall all go
Like Ghana must go
Where we shall be laid low, very low
In the dark of the soil
