Smoke

Joy Oladokun


Yesterday I left my joint sitting on the counter
Forgot to put it out, yeah, forgot these things have power
Yeah, it burned a whole right through
Like all the years you can't undo

These days the air in my lungs has gotten thicker
But I breathe a little lighter when I'm with her
This battle in my head is overdue
She says the only way around is through

All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertilе ground
All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smokе

Sometimes I get jealous of Jesus for
Falling asleep in the middle of the storm and-
Sometimes you got feel like drowning to be reborn and-
Oh, I haven't slept in 3 days
I know I've gotta find my way

Through all of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertile ground
All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke

And I know I'm gonna see the light
The smoke will clear out from my eyes
And I know I'm gonna see
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertile ground

All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertile ground
All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
