lyrics

I see myself in a jungle there’s no food and water to drink 

I turned around to the north and south there’s plenty greens and the birds are singing 

The future look so bright but the road is tough 

That’s why me can’t stop singing and playing cos Jah go bless me one day 

I can see the future the future look so bright and happiness 

I can see the future I pray for Jah protection in the future 

We can see the future that’s why we work torward the future 

The future look so bright it look so bright 

Wos3ko wos3ko sane no hewol3 ny33f3a toiboo Koni ny33 boa me toi 

Shi woshitamo min ehii eeee dzanyonmo 

K3 ohi3 akafo ony3mi ko no 

Nohewo wontsunin koni aka to wobii y3 y3 wos3ko wos3ko

written and composed by Nii Buxton, this piece is a strong and positive prayer to life, to our future, and to the idea that nothing will be easy as we move along our path, but we shall not give up!
Recorded live and acoustic at Accra’s Art Center, the song features Nii’s guitar and voice, supported by unique sounds and rhythms that offer the idea of being immersed in a west-African forest. In addition to the lyricis sung in english, Nii brings in his cultural background and tradition by singing in his native tongue, the Ga language from Accra.
