Wizkid – Time [Song Breakdown] – Nigeria

Time is track 5 on Wizkid’s Morayo album, released November 22, 2024, and it continues the album’s shift between reflection and rhythm. Produced by P2J with co-production from Elomaina Mafeni, the song sits at a mid-tempo pace with warm guitar chords, soft percussion, and a mellow bassline that gives it a late-night, introspective feel. Wizkid’s vocals are smooth and restrained, letting the emotion in his delivery carry more weight than melodic acrobatics.

Lyrically, Time deals with patience, growth, and the way loss changes your relationship with the clock. He sings about waiting for healing, understanding that some things can’t be rushed, and finding peace in the process. The song doesn’t rely on a big hook or danceable beat; instead, it leans into mood and atmosphere, making it one of the quieter but more personal moments on Morayo. It feels like a direct continuation of the themes introduced in Troubled Mind, but with a sense of acceptance starting to take shape.

On the album, Time works as a breather between the higher-energy Bad Girl and the more vocally dense Piece of My Heart. It’s not a track built for virality, but it resonates with listeners who connect with the album’s deeper narrative about grief and moving forward. Fans have highlighted it in posts about dealing with loss, and critics noted it as evidence of Wizkid’s growth as a songwriter willing to sit in slower, more contemplative spaces.
