‘Papa’ is Johnny Drille’s most personal and emotionally driven song to date. A poignant ode to fathers, the lyrics tackle his feelings of missing home after leaving his hometown of Benin City for Lagos as he reflects on how his father’s wisdom continues to guide him.

Papa Lyrics:
Papa
He calls me to pray
He tells the Lord
To watch over me
Oh my papa
He can like to say
As you go away
Don’t forget where you came
If you lose your way you can pray
Don’t be afraid don’t lose faith
You will find your help there’ll be a way
Just remember to pray and you’ll be ok
Papa
He calls everyday
He asks me son
I hope you’re doing okay
Oh my papa
He too dey fear say I gho go astray
Cos I walk a stranger land
And my home is so far away
Papa says if you lose your way you can pray
Don’t be afraid don’t lose faith
You will find your help there’ll be a way
Just remember to pray and you’ll be ok
Me sef dey pray for Papa
Make him find more strength and grace
And may the good Lord keep him longer
In Jesus name.
If you lose your way you can pray
Don’t be afraid don’t lose faith
You will find your help there’ll be a way
Just remember to pray
If you lose your way you can pray
Don’t be afraid don’t lose faith
You will find your help there’ll be a way
Just remember to pray and you’ll be ok
You can pray
Don’t be afraid don’t lose faith
You will find your help there’ll be a way
If you remember to pray
