Wems Henry Temmy Psalm 14-

I'm here to give, just check to give a true change  
Unlike the humanly possible change living in the CAGE
Burning the future at sight with pride
Calamity throwing away truth to hide
Hearty secret everyone wakes to rise 
To be ready and stand not in guise
 
Trade for tease, play poses of its possible picture 
No matter how much time, God only preserve the future 
Shake far shyness, look like lazy lawyer's logic
To find out the underground pure magic 
Lord boosts momentary days of Baba àti màmá
Toasting the hour glass of lyrical dilemma 

Please open their eyes 
To see beyond guise 

Bòbó when I'm deep I am me, full of life. 
The sound in your eyes isn't listening! 
You imagine I am weak -- not strong enough or brave enough
You call me different and difficult but I'm still glistening
You need His warmth, His love, His  success
To make a decision, an impact, a difference without much stress 

Trade for tease, play poses of its possible picture 
No matter how much time, God only preserve the future 
Shake far shyness, look like lazy lawyer's logic
To find out the underground pure magic 
Lord boosts momentary days of Baba àti màmá
Toasting the hour glass of lyrical dilemma 

Please open their eyes 
To see beyond guise 

I am more I am a man -- I frown -- I cry
I hurt and yell at the universe nevertheless, I do try
I make a difference like a pastor away from errors
I smile; a smile both defined and undefined like of philanderers 
Their hearts will ask and implore for more 
Enjoying the wild drive widely to the very core 

Trade for tease, play poses of its possible picture 
No matter how much time, God only preserve the future 
Shake far shyness, look like lazy lawyer's logic
To find out the underground pure magic 
Lord boosts momentary days of Baba àti màmá
Toasting the hour glass of lyrical dilemma 

Please open their eyes 
To see beyond guise 

Me I am through self-confidence who I am deep inside
Everything I've become follows the grace of turning the tide
Flowering the mood at the end of every day
But within, I have one other thing to say 
The next time you ask me to talk and pray because you think, I belong to the church
You better believe I'm doing it my way like a pastor through research 

Trade for tease, play poses of its possible picture 
No matter how much time, God only preserve the future 
Shake far shyness, look like lazy lawyer's logic
To find out the underground pure magic 
Lord boosts momentary days of Baba àti màmá
Toasting the hour glass of lyrical dilemma 

Please open their eyes 
To see beyond guise 
I am who I am, a brother
So free your mind of bother
