Текст песни Lately (feat. Raybekah) - Yungeen Ace , Raybekah

Fi the boys them o
I control my destiny
(Ooh-wee, aah we ah)
I control my destiny

Lately, I've been in my shift
I've been thinking deep
I've been looking at my walls and wailing (wailing)
Oh-oh, lately, I cannot trust anybody ('body)
'Cause everyone go betray me
Na why I dey, and I focus on God o

Oh, lately, I've been fighting my demons
I've been waiting for King Kong
To come to my rescue, but he don't
Know what I been through

Lately, Papa they had me cry
Papa, they see me through
Igbo no fit take this pain away
Oh, I'm praying, praying
Telling Baba God to save me
'Cause the struggle I dey call it (call it, call it)

Now I'm connected
Connected to those, those people wey dey dey on doubt
When I know how it goes

Aye, running from my past 'cause it's ugly
Everyone happy besides me
How can I go big when demons in my dreams?
Prayed for this life, but it's not what it seems
You don't know the half where I came from
Scrapped from the bottom, right out of the slums
You don't even know where my life begun

I'm losing connection

I was getting no bills, nobody came for me (nobody came for me)
Calling on the phone, I got their answering machines
Alone in my room, I had to crack (I had to crack)
Eight-years-old, I had to learn to survive
So many times I wanted to quit, I had to try
The ones I love the most, they all went and died on me
I was puttin' new friends when they had time for me (they had time)

Oh, oh, lately (yeah), I been in my feelings (I been in my feelings)
I ain't been focused on me (on me)
Handling my demons with God
Oh, lately, I, I been forgiving
But that don't mean that I have been healing (I have been)
My choices control where I'm living (damn)

Oh, I am praying (I'm praying), praying (I'm praying)
Telling Baba God to save me (save me)
'Cause the struggle hard gan-an ni (gan-an ni, gan-an ni)

Now I'm connected
Connected to those, those people wey dey dey on doubt
When I know how it goes (I know how it goes, I know how it goes)
Gan-an ni, gan-an ni (save me)
Oh-oh, oh, ah, oh-oh, oh, ah (save me)

Gan-an ni, gan-an ni (save me)
Oh-oh, oh, ah, oh-oh, oh, ah (save me, save me, save me)

I control my destiny
I control my destiny
