So what do we do next?
Een sɛ noa sɛ wo bɛ hwɛ woho so yie
Na diɛ wooyɛ no, music na wooyɛ no
Ma we nim bra so.
Na ma ninyɛ wasɛm hia
Na no na daakye no, wode bɛ hw lɛ woho ni woba
Uh
Looking at a brave face like "Which one should I choose?"
Staring at the pieces like "Which one should I move?"
The fear was like Medusa
Meditate and woosah
Realign my chakras, vacate and chuck my deuce up
I was tryna live global before local on the lowkey
You're safer round the walls if they don't know where you go sleep
Tryna count my blessings while I question why they chose me
Back and forth with doubt while I reminisce the old me
Am I dressed for the occasion?
This cashmere feel amazing, I'm back baby
Reaching for the keys like a crack baby
This that real rap
Thank Dilla he saved me
Thank mama she raised me to never stifle creation and never fold under pressure within the stormiest weather
I'm still turning the tide
I thank Angelou too
Cause still I rise
They say life got a temper but I got God on my side, and in the darkest of weather
Imma find my
Reason to smile
Reason to smile
Over tryna complicate the little things
Stress the things that I can't change
Shedding tears that's water weight
I own the strength they took away
The war in me I win, I win
Grateful for the simple things
Don't see life through a clouded lens
I always find my reason to smile
My life good cause my son got his mum's smile
Got less time for the shade like a sundial
This ain't no overnight, this sun-up to sun-down
So I'm braced for the lows like a comedown
I don't have to be choosy, if I want it I have it
Made a three-course meal out of indomie packets
Knowing Jah got me covered if I'm under a blanket
If you wasn't in the kitchen then you ain't at the banquet
I been eating long enough it's time to stop being greedy
In my head for long enough don't give a fuck if you feel it
I might start my own religion I got tired of preaching
They would say they don't believe it, "I need profit to see it,"
But I ain't bouncing the cheque
Is he good, they say "Yes!"
Heard he went through some things
Is he good, they say "Bless!"
Is he up, is he next
Who knows, who cares
Felt ten pounds lighter when I let go of my fears
And I found my
Reason to smile (I found, I found, I found, I found)
Reason to smile (yeah)
Over tryna complicate the little things
Stress the things that I can't change
Shedding tears that's water weight
I own the strength they took away
The war in me I win, I win
Grateful for the simple things
Don't see life through a clouded lens
I always find my reason to smile
