Title: “From Trenches to Grace (Na God Dey Run Am)”
[Intro]
Yeah… hmm
From pain, from nothing
But grace found me
Jehovah… I thank You
[Verse 1]
I come from trenches, where hope no dey show
Cold nights, empty pocket, everywhere slow
Dem talk say I go fail, I hear am before
But I still dey move, I still dey go
Me kra mu yɛ den, I no go fall (Twi: my spirit is strong)
Even when I cry, I still dey call
On Jehovah name, He dey answer me
Turn my darkness into victory
No food, no help, still I believe
Say better days go come, I no go leave
Pain be my teacher, struggle my school
But God turn my life, now I break every rule
[Pre-Chorus]
Ɛnyɛ me nko ara, God dey my side (Twi: I’m not alone)
When I dey weak, He be my guide
From low to high, I dey rise again
Grace take my shame, wash my pain
[Chorus]
From trenches to grace, I dey shine o
Pain to praise, now I dey smile o
God write my story, I dey rise o
I was lost but now I find home
From trenches to grace, I dey win o
Every scar on me be blessing within o
I no be the same wey I be before
Na grace carry me go higher floor
[Verse 2]
I remember days wey I no get bread
Only prayer for my mind and head
Friends go vanish when hunger show face
But God still keep me in His grace
Now I dey walk like king wey God choose
No more shame, I no fit lose
Ansa me ho asɛm, I dey testify (Twi: I’m telling my story)
From underground now I dey fly high
Enemies shock say I still dey glow
But dem no know wetin God dey show
Every step I take, blessings dey fall
I no go stop, I answer His call
[Rap / Pidgin + Twi Flow]
Listen…
I come from place where nothing dey sure
But I still survive, I still endure
Dem try break me but I stand like stone
Jehovah hold me, I no dey alone
W’adom nti na me gyina (Twi: by Your grace I stand)
Every pain turn testimony, I no dey hide am
From gutter to glory, story don change
Now I dey live life on a higher range
[Chorus – Repeat]
From trenches to grace, I dey shine o
Pain to praise, now I dey smile o
God write my story,
