PEACE BE STILLĀ
Zuba can you pause?
Got to win this war
Manzi hold me up
Like a concrete floor
I’m no longer bound by your earthly law
I don’t operate by them no more
No more
They say I’m crazy ’cause I smile
Out the window when a storm’s outside
What’s on my mind is a promise
Saying peace be still
Your war is mine
I died so you can live
Nimvela che spaka jazzy
Nimvela che nice nice nice
I know I’m not even worthy
It’s ’cause of this Jesus Christ
Ku bwelea numa teti
I’m on him like white on rice
I’m giving myself to service
Giving my life
So you see
He is all I need
I worship Him with all of me
Join the family
You’re welcome here
They say I’m crazy ’cause I smile
Out the window when a storm’s outside
What’s on my mind is a promise
Saying peace be still
Your war is mine
I died so you can live
Tune into his frequency Elohim
He’s able to meet your need
Come as you are
And just like a dormant seed begin to grow
They say I’m crazy ’cause I smile
Out the window when a storm’s outside
What’s on my mind is a promise
Saying peace be still
Your war is mine
I died for you
They say I’m crazy ’cause I smile
Out the window when a storm’s outside
What’s on my mind is a promise
Saying peace be still
Your war is mine (smile out the window)
I died so you can live (smile out the window)
He died so you can live
He died so you can live
