Peace for the people who are gone
Yekpa for the ones not yet born
Oh, for the people who are here
Yeah, yeah, yeah, for the people
Peace for the people who are gone
Yekpa for the ones not yet born
Oh, for the people who are here
Yeah, yeah, yeah, for the people
I cry when I see that I am born
I live when I see what I am to do
‘Cause life is all about
All you sitting and looking at me
Just take one step at a time
‘Cause if you jump you’ll never believe
The thorns of life
Them are whining and waiting for me and you
They make a brother say
I want to run away
Run away, run away
Run away, we re ja si gbo
Run away, run away
Run away, we re ja si gbo
