[Chorus]
I just need a moment to collect my thoughts
Peace be still when the waters are rough
I been through a lot, but who hasn't?
I'm steady till kingdom come, I won't panic
Yeah, I stay solid
So why evils wanna come my way? (Come my way)
Owo ni koko ko to salaye
So go ahead and put some more commas on it
We no dey talk nonsense
We talk money for real
Bank account be like House of Parliament
Big bills, eeniyan, big deal
Baby, l'm way too skilled for these niggas to test me
Ain't no way for these niggas to press me
[Verse 1]
Uh, yeah
Phelps with thе entry
You're barely halfway thеre, you can't get me
I don't run out of tricks, the kids did it for clicks
I just did it for kicks like I'm Jet Li
And if he really sure for you, oh yeah, bet me
I'ma have the place jumping like it's envy
Abi na hotbox
Shawty wan' slide just to get high, turn the whip to a hotbox
And the crux of the matter is even if I pull up in my Crocs
All her mannerisms gonna change up (Yeah)
Now I got her lipstick and her makeup
Everywhere, evidence all up in my residence
Now we're arguing just for the sake of argument
And all the stress is building up because we rarely vent
Sometimes I wonder if she playing my intelligence
She say, "What's the relevance?"
[Chorus]
I just need a moment to collect my thoughts
Peace be still when the waters are rough
I been through a lot, but who hasn't?
I'm steady till kingdom come, I won't panic
Yeah, I stay solid
So why evils wanna come my way? (Come my way)
Owo ni koko ko to salaye
So go ahead and put some more commas on it
We no dey talk nonsense
We talk money for real
Bank account be like House of Parliament
Big bills, eeniyan, big deal
Baby, l'm way too skilled for these niggas to test me
Ain't no way for these niggas to press me
[Verse 2]
For the betterment of my emotions
I'm keeping at least four miles and over
I partied with the evils, I know
Try to run a race with your feet down
Stuck to the floor now
Honestly, I need a vacation
Just some peace of mind celebration, oh
Save myself from this type to relation
Externally I'm seeking vibrations, woah
Everything I do to keep my mind cool
Is because some people love to see war
Everything I do, everything I do
For the betterment of my emotions
Make it feel cool
For the betterment of my emotions
[Verse 3]
I need a moment of peace
A likkle sound of silence, uh
Make it feel like a cool, cool breeze
Don't want open my eyelids
Let it carry me away
None of the pain inside, mm
And by the time I open up my eyes
A better plane in sight, uh
Never lost in a daydream
Now that I arrived, I know it's all for the taking
Niggas goin' crazy in the streets where they made me
They all wanna race me, they still gatta chase me
Tell me how you wanna go catching lightning
I just know wanna know who sold you dreams
Don't know who sent you, but they've got awful timing
There's nothing you could do when the stars are aligning
[Outro]
See I just want to have fun
And enjoy my life
E je kin saiye mi
E je kin jaiye mi
