One of my favorite artists made this beat so I had to put my take on it. I recorded this off my phone so bear with me😂 I tried to make it as high quality as I can.

“Play Me” Lyrics: 

I can’t even lie this time 
Can’t fool me with your bed of lies 
Got me stuck but I’m moving now 
You can’t play me 
Play me 

Too much pressure building up on me 
I gotta fight so my past doesn’t haunt me 
Get yourself together 
‘Cause now you playing with my needs 

How you gonna call my phone 
When I’m the one you cut you off 
You should’ve took the keys and run 
But you still coming back to me, honestly 

Go take a trip and call Tyron 
I don’t need you blowing up my phone no more 
Really thought you learned your lesson 
You better be on your way 

So how you gonna really play me 
How you gonna repay me 
How you gonna really play me 
Play me 

You really wanna take the home
You know you never really owned 
Do you really wanna play me
Play me 

So how you gonna really play me 
How you gonna repay me 
How you gonna really play me 
Play me 

How you gonna take my phone 
You already really know 
You could never ever try to play me 
Play me 

Don’t cry, baby 
I know you wanna talk 
Sit back, I’m tryna save you
Release the trauma out of this dark cage 

Hold me, baby 
No need to hold back tears 
It’s been a rough year baby 
Throughout the quarantine rona been burning us 3rd degree 

Gotta stay busy the hustles real
Life is too short to be lazy 
Gotta stay humble 
God got my back, so there’s no need to run 
Don’t let your past bite you and cause you to crumble 
Cause you to crumble

Play Me

"Elena" by Seku Ndo is a fusion of AfroTrap, soulful R&B, and Afro-Gospel — a triumphant street love anthem riding on a tight Afro-style kick/snare bounce with light trap hi-hats. The beat feels cinematic yet grounded, built on emotional chord progressions, wide reverb claps, and deep vocal pad stabs.

This Pidgin English version turns pure romance into street realism — blending faith, hustle, and passion into one unforgettable hook. Seku Ndo’s delivery is smooth but fierce, making Elena equally at home in the club, on the block, or in your heart.

🎧 Turn it up, close your eyes, and let "Elena" carry you. Drop your flag in the comments if you’re feeling the vibe. 🔥💛


Beneath the romance and street-smooth delivery, "Elena" carries a layered, almost philosophical undercurrent that goes beyond just love talk.

Here’s the breakdown of the hidden message:

1. Love as both spiritual and street survival

The fusion of AfroTrap, R&B, and Afro-Gospel isn’t just musical variety — it symbolises how love lives in two worlds at once:

Spiritual: The “marry me, carry me” line is more than romance — it’s surrender and unity, echoing Gospel themes of covenant and guidance.

Street realism: Using Pidgin keeps it raw, making it a love that’s not idealised or fairy-tale-like but tested in the hustle and chaos of real life.


2. Elena as an archetype

“Elena” isn’t just one girl’s name; she’s a stand-in for the ideal connection everyone searches for:

The person who makes your “heart skip beats” in a world where danger, distraction, and hustle never stop.

She represents hope and grounding, something (or someone) to hold onto in unstable surroundings.


3. Emotional clarity in a noisy world

The track structure mirrors its message:

Tight, clear beats = discipline and focus.

Wide reverb & delay = the surreal, dreamlike feeling of being in love.
Philosophically, it’s saying: in the chaos of modern life, the right person can make everything sharper and more meaningful.

4. Street gospel

By mixing the sensual with Gospel undertones, the song carries the idea that love can be a divine act even when it’s messy and urban, a kind of sacred in the secular.
