Lyrics
Intro
- 22, I was alone
- Didn’t know where I belong
- Struggling for comfort
Chorus
- 22, I was alone
- I was laying down on the floor
- I was running, running from my thoughts
- And I didn’t know where I belong
- Struggling for comfort
- 22, I heard the Lord
- And He told me I was enough
- I was begging, begging for something
- Something wey go make me outstanding
- E go sup when e wan sup
- E go sup when e wan sup
Verse

- First of all, I go tell Jehovah
- Na Him keep my cup runneth over
- I’ve been calling you on His contact
- Ólúwà mánó shólá
- Fájá, fájá

- Bàbá, mọ’ń bé mídà
- Amí gùngùn, mọ’ tútùn ràbíọ
- K’órò kọ’ mi, má ka sí’yá
