mo gbadura fun alaafia ati ifokanbale ninu aye wa. k’orun yo l’oju rere wa.
i know all the words i need to hear,
i know the truth, i know everything that is mine will find me
i know that but I just want to grieve.
it seems like nothing is sticking, no matter how i try
i know the heavens will open for me,
i know this sea of serenity will hold me in its safe embrace and guide me ONWARD
