Nneka - Maya lyrics
[Nneka - Maya lyrics]
My spirit to your, spirit to your feet, oh Lord
Soul into your hands, oh Lord
Mind into your mind, oh Lord
It's illusion
E never teh wen I dey yan you this kind yan before
I know say I don' come your presence just like this before
And all a dey ask is for you to see and to hear me, Lord
'Cause recently been on my knees praying for peace, oh God
Oh, Divine, your suns have been put astray
Oh, Jah, humanity is drifting deep that way
'Cause recently been all a dey stripping my patterns away
And here I am honestly, innocently seeking to lay
My spirit to your feet, oh Lord
My soul, oh Lord, into your hands, oh Lord
My mind, into your mind, oh Lord
Innocently seeking to lay
The Pharisees and the scribes in my mind tell me this is wrong
To come to you so often like I do they say it's not strong
A child must grow up to stop drinking from the hand that feeds him
But Lord, how can I be myself when I am still child within?
Oh Lord, I don tire to play the game the same, shineke I don tire to dey feel the shame
In the silence 'cause they told me I ain't worthy of your love
Put them to silence 'cause I now know I don't have to earn your love, oh Lord
My spirit to your feet, oh Lord
My soul oh Lord, into your hands, oh Lord
My mind into your mind, oh Lord
Innocently seeking to lay
My spirit to your feet, oh Lord (Feet, oh Lord)
My soul into your hands, oh Lord (Hands, oh Lord)
My mind into your mind, oh Lord (Mind, oh Lord)
'Cause it's all illusion (Illusion, illusion, illusion, illusion...)
My soul into your hands, oh Lord
My mind into your mind, oh Lord
'Cause everything is illusion
My spirit to your feet, oh Lord
My soul, oh Lord, into your hands, oh Lord
My mind into your mind, oh Lord
Innocently seeking to lay
My spirit to your feet, oh Lord (Feet, oh Lord)
My soul into your hands, oh Lord (Hands, oh Lord)
My mind into your mind, oh Lord (Mind, oh Lord)
'Cause it's all illusion
(Spirit to your, spirit to your feet, oh Lord)
My mind into your mind, oh Lord (Oh Lord, it's illusion)
My spirit to your feet, oh Lord
My mind into your mind, oh Lord
'Cause it's all illusion (Illusion)
Soul into your hands, oh Lord
Mind into your mind, oh Lord
It's illusion
E never teh wen I dey yan you this kind yan before
I know say I don' come your presence just like this before
And all a dey ask is for you to see and to hear me, Lord
'Cause recently been on my knees praying for peace, oh God
Oh, Divine, your suns have been put astray
Oh, Jah, humanity is drifting deep that way
'Cause recently been all a dey stripping my patterns away
And here I am honestly, innocently seeking to lay
My spirit to your feet, oh Lord
My soul, oh Lord, into your hands, oh Lord
My mind, into your mind, oh Lord
Innocently seeking to lay
