[Verse 1]
You came in with a grin
Dust on your black shoes
One hand on the gate
Like you already knew
Your name hit the room
Small spark, big scene
I tried to play cool
But you got to me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I saw it then
You don’t chase, you pull
One step closer now
And the air went full
My heart on your sleeve
Like a shirt half-torn
Say that name again
I was waiting for
[Chorus]
Roch, Roch, Roch
Say it slow for me
Roch, Roch, Roch
You’re the one I see
Roch, Roch, Roch
Keep that rhythm on
Roch, Roch, Roch
And don’t take too long
[Verse 2]
Corner shop run, late
Soda in your hand
Laughing at the rain
Drawing in the sand
You talk in short lines
Still, I get the whole thing
Every little glance
Feels like a gold ring
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know your move
When you fake that calm
When you lean that close
I’m already gone
No turning back
Once you pull that string
Say that name again
Let the whole world sing
[Chorus]
Roch, Roch, Roch
Say it slow for me
Roch, Roch, Roch
You’re the one I see
Roch, Roch, Roch
Keep that rhythm on
Roch, Roch, Roch
And don’t take too long
[Bridge]
One touch, then the day breaks
One smile, then I stay awake
If you call, I’m on my way
Roch, you know I don’t play
[Chorus]
Roch, Roch, Roch
Say it slow for me
Roch, Roch, Roch
You’re the one I see
Roch, Roch, Roch
Keep that rhythm on
Roch, Roch, Roch
And don’t take too long
You came in with a grin
Dust on your black shoes
One hand on the gate
Like you already knew
Your name hit the room
Small spark, big scene
I tried to play cool
But you got to me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I saw it then
You don’t chase, you pull
One step closer now
And the air went full
My heart on your sleeve
Like a shirt half-torn
Say that name again
I was waiting for
[Chorus]
Roch, Roch, Roch
Say it slow for me
Roch, Roch, Roch
You’re the one I see
Roch, Roch, Roch
Keep that rhythm on
Roch, Roch, Roch
And don’t take too long
[Verse 2]
Corner shop run, late
Soda in your hand
Laughing at the rain
Drawing in the sand
You talk in short lines
Still, I get the whole thing
Every little glance
Feels like a gold ring
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know your move
When you fake that calm
When you lean that close
I’m already gone
No turning back
Once you pull that string
Say that name again
Let the whole world sing
[Chorus]
Roch, Roch, Roch
Say it slow for me
Roch, Roch, Roch
You’re the one I see
Roch, Roch, Roch
Keep that rhythm on
Roch, Roch, Roch
And don’t take too long
[Bridge]
One touch, then the day breaks
One smile, then I stay awake
If you call, I’m on my way
Roch, you know I don’t play
[Chorus]
Roch, Roch, Roch
Say it slow for me
Roch, Roch, Roch
You’re the one I see
Roch, Roch, Roch
Keep that rhythm on
Roch, Roch, Roch
And don’t take too long
Musikstil
Afrobeats pop with a bouncy midtempo dembow-leaning groove, sharp hand percussion, rolling log drum bass, and bright guitar stabs; verse stays tight and conversational, pre-chorus lifts with stacked harmonies and rising shakers, chorus drops into a chanty call-and-response hook. Lead vocal is intimate and playful with doubled lines, ad-lib echoes, and quick delay throws on the name. Ear candy includes reversed cymbal swells, claps snapping into the downbeat, and a small synth sparkle before each chorus. Mix is glossy, warm, and punchy with a big low end
