[Intro]

I woke up this morning, I can breathe, I am able-bodied

I am well, I have clear thoughts, there is food to eat

And clean water to drink, I am warm

I have keys to a home, I am loved

I have things to unlock and maybe this is the key

I am grateful for this knowing

[Verse 1]

No saints, every man is a sinner

Don't come near, cry me a river

There's no place in the world for the weaker

Now only people with no fear, be the winner, ooh

All the people with the fear turn to dinner, ooh

Baba God, make I no turn to dinner, oh

[Chorus]

Twenty steps backward and thirty forward

I'm grateful, yeah, so grateful, yeah, yeah

Many times I tried, but never gave up

I'm grateful, yeah, yeah, so grateful, yeah, yeah

[Refrain]

Ayo, ayo, ayo, ayo

Ayo, ayo, ayo, ayo, ayo

Ayo, ayo, ayo

Ayo, ayo, ayo, ayo

Ayo, ayo

Ayo, ayo, ayo, ayo

Ayo, ayo, ayo, ayo, ayo

[Outro]

Aoyeeee yele bo

Ngigqwele bo

Ngigqwele

Ngigqwele

Uyandibona

Ndo nwabile

Uyandibona

Ndo nwabile

N'pholile

Ndimnandi

Uyandibona

Ndo nwabile

Happiness (It's happiness)

My life no stress

Happiness (It's happiness)

My life no stress
