Soul Food (Extended Version) (ft. Luka)

Verse 1
Didn’t know who he was before he fell
Didn’t think life would ever treat him well
Nights spent alone in the darkness
Battling hurt and the sadness
The music revived him and he could breathe
Breathe again

Chorus
Music set me free
Lost my soul to thee
And now I can finally see
That music is soul, soul food to me
(is like soul food, soul food)
That music is soul, soul food to me
(is like soul food, soul food)
Music is soul food to me

Verse 2
Didn’t know who she was before love left
Didn’t know how to face the pain she felt, oh
Nights spent alone in the darkness
Battling hurt and the sadness
‘Till music revived her and she could breathe
Breathe again, oh

Chorus
Music set me free
Lost my soul to thee
And now I can finally see
That music is soul, soul food to me
(is like soul food, soul food)
That music is soul, soul food to me
(is like soul food, soul food)
Music is soul food to me


Outro
So (*) overall
But it was that he’d been through it
I couldn’t fathom for the life of you what that must have been like
Having to live what he’s lived
And seen what he’s seen
And walk the paths that he’s walked
He makes me appreciate who I am
What I can do
What I’m capable of
And the gift my life is
He makes me appreciate how beautiful life can be in the midst of darkness
In the midst of turmoil
In the midst of strain
In the midst of all things negative
He reminds you that life is worth hustling for
It’s worth the struggle
It’s worth the fight
It’s worth the, the woe
It’s worth the tears
It’s worth the (*)
Because when you win the battles
However small those victories are
They make it all worth it, you know?
And he said to me- a lot of the time he calls me blessed one, hmm
Uhm, or lioness because we’re both warriors of light
He says,
‘’Sometimes you need get out of your head, you know
And just get out of your mind and stop.
Stop overthinking things because your mind is one of your biggest foes’’
And I totally agree,
I mean you sit with your head and – yoh
Everything you are insecure about sort of amplifies, you know?
And then there he sits,
With he’s, with he’s cheeky, naughty laugh
And he’s concerned about a person
who has done music with him for a very short time
who I am incredibly privileged, privileged to call friend
And when he touches something, man
Yoh , it’s- it’s- it’s- it’s always, always out of this world
You never, you don’t see that coming
And when he touches it, it’s like it’s always been his
Like everybody else who has ever tried has just been wasting their time
And I’m so blessed
I’m, I’m Ever-grateful
Ever-blessed
Ever-favoured
Ever- loved
To call him brother
And I often call him my musical soul mate ‘cause he is
He just gives me a beat and I’m like ‘’okay, let’s go’’
And he be like ‘’awe, that works’’
And I’ll be like ‘’yay’’
You know?
Young celebrations
Oh ya,
He’s uhm- he’s amazing
Uhm, my big brother who shares so much of he’s life and he’s world and he’s creativity
And he trusts so much of his art to me that I am honoured
So honoured to know him
He’s one of my favourite people and one of the greatest gifts I have
