[Verse 1: Dope]

Khalid, still valid

But no more present here with us, to add value

We was homies back in the day

Wasn't so close tho', but we gather dey pray

As we suppose to

You showed me quite a lot of techie stuff

Was always learning, never felt that the books were enough

Such a fun personality, such a pleasant and lovely soul

So sweet, like bread and tea

Na everybody get talent

But your own talent, you come get composure on top

I was hoping we could work together some day

Yuuno, gather hustle to the top

They say God knows best

I'm tryna see the big picture through my broken lens

My pain caused this tears

Regretting that I wasn't there for you in your fears

I'm so certain that you're seated in Heaven

Seated with the Most High, seated with the brethren

I just don't like how early you died

With a life ahead of you to still live for Christ

Khalid, we had a couple of laughs

Laughing about this and that with a couple of guys

Soldier, Preacher Man to the core

Standing strong in the faith, standing tall with the call


[Verse 2: Dope]

Archbishop Benson Idahosa told me

That his Pastor told him that he could raise the dead

So he raised the dead, the good news spread

Like a wildfire, all around the world

I still believe that we owe it to you, to have prayed for you

When death came knocking

If we saw Jesus do it, then it means we can do it

But we didn't, but we still keep talking

Oh Lord have mercy on my faithlessness

Khalid is not here, to display the great essence

Of your death on the cross for the world

That is, to shine bright by the power of the WORD

But he's better now in a better place

With a new name, new clothes, new space

In the arms of the Father, now he is

Seated, comforted, sorted, BLISS


[Verse 3: Maestro]

Got the news on a Sunday that you had passed away

Oh God, I was like, not Khalid

You was a good guy, scratch that men, you was a great guy

You had skill on a level of genius not just another guy

I reminisce on calls & chats we had in the past

You was the life of the party, you was good like that

You was a soldier, the kind who always had our backs

You raised the bar high, creativity at its peak

I loved your zeal and energy, it was so contagious

You overcame even when you faced challenges

I thank God for the life you lived, you was a wonder

You're forever with the Lord, in heaven, watching us now

Outbox your brain child, one of your many ideas

You was ahead of your time, way ahead of your peers

Second to none, ur pedigree, it was grade one

Rest in peace bro, your legacy great, it lives on
