Soft Life Prayer

Soft life, clean heart
Money must come, peace must stay

I wake before sunrise with my shoes by the bed
Phone light blinking with the rent in red
Kettle on fire, one bread to share
Still I say thank You for the morning air
Mama told me, "Child, move right
Not every rich road leads to light"
If money comes with a crooked chain
Let that money miss my name

Mo dupe, I give thanks
For the bread, for the chance
For the scars, for the dance

I no want stress, I want soft life prayer
Good food on the table, clean heart, fresh air
Money must come, but peace must stay there
If blessing knock, I pull up a chair

Soft life prayer (rice on the table)
Soft life prayer (no wahala)

I've seen big men with a troubled mind
Gold on the wrist but no sleep at night
Three phones ringing, no quiet home
Big car shining but he still alone
At the corner shop Auntie gives me credit
Says, "Pay me Friday, don't forget it"
I bless her hand, she blesses mine
Community sweet when the heart is kind

Mo dupe, I give thanks
For the bread, for the chance
For the scars, for the dance

I no want stress, I want soft life prayer
Good food on the table, clean heart, fresh air
Money must come, but peace must stay there
If blessing knock, I pull up a chair

Give me peace (give me peace)
Give me love (give me love)
Give me bread (daily bread)
If I rise (let me lift another)
If I eat (let my neighbour taste)

Soft life, soft life (clean heart)
Soft life, soft life (no wahala)

I no want stress, I want soft life prayer
Good food on the table, clean heart, fresh air
Money must come, but peace must stay there
If blessing knock, I pull up a chair

Daily bread, open hands
Peace must stay
