Yoh... Ayy...
Muli shani, mukwai?
Listen to my story, oh
Natotela Lesa, thank you, Lord!
Life is simple, make we no overthink am
When they gossip, I just laugh and let it sink in
At age ten, I was sharp, passing every test
But they jealous, wanted me to fail the rest
Some even wanted make I comot from this earth
But my God said "not yet, I gave you birth!"
You will live long to see your enemies look at you shine
Every single battle, Jehovah says is mine!
I surrender all to Lesa, my protector!
From the village to the city, Heβs my director!
All the pain is in the past, now I'm doing fine, oh!
They are watching me, but I am drinking wine, oh!
Mayo! I make it, I am working now!
To my God and my parents, I take a bow!
They sent me far away to the remote side
Deep in the bush, had no place to hide
Hardship was real, but my faith was strong
High school was tough, but I sang my song
Now I'm back in the city where I started my day
Working hard, winning big, finding my way
Those who wanted me down, they don't know what to do
Because the blessings of God are forever true!
I surrender all to Lesa, my protector!
From the village to the city, Heβs my director!
All the pain is in the past, now I'm doing fine, oh!
They are watching me, but I am drinking wine, oh!
Mayo! I make it, I am working now!
To my God and my parents, I take a bow!
Boza! Their lies are nothing, oh!
We are rejoicing, ifwe we are rising!
Ayy... Yoh...
Natotela, mukwai.
It is well.
