GOSPEL MUSIC: Emmanuel Abbey - Take It Easy

 I’m a trained banker by profession and a singer by calling. I was born into a family of traditional believers. But later my entire family converted to Islam. When I was eighteen years old, I converted to Christianity. I am the only Christian in my family and I have been singing as a chorister since my conversion. It is my desire to touch lives and to draw hearts closer to God through my songs.

"Take It Easy" is a danceable afrobeat that admonishes the listener to be patient in life; in everything they do, and stop comparing themselves to others. It encourages us to eschew jealousy and live our lives at our own pace. 

LYRICS

Why the rush
Eden ne mpepere ho yi
Everything good comes with patience
Enti to wo boase, learn to walk before you learn to run o
Humble yourself and live long o oo o o
This beauty you see, you came to meet it na
Wobegya ne nyinaa ho ako o
Take it easy
Be patient money can’t buy life
Abotre wie nkunimdie
Don’t let your love for money drive you into jealousy
Whatever you do today
Will come back to haunt you one day
A word to the wise is enough
A word to the wise is enough ee

In whatever you do
Patient oo mmmm abotre
No hurry in life mpepere woho na
Abotre wie nkunimdie I say
Don’t buy pressure for yourself oo o
Onua live your life at your own pace

In its time, what belongs to you
Will surely come to you
Take your time
Take your time
Onua live your life at your own pace
In its time, what belongs to you
Will surely come to you
Take your time
Take your time

Life is not for sale in the supermarket
As a tilapia don’t be jealous of the eagle just because you can’t fly
Remember the eagle can’t also swim like you o o o o o
Be patient
If it’s yours it will come to you
Shortcut in life is dangerous
Humble yourself
Glory always comes with humility
Enti to wo boase oo o o o
Na wode wo mu a wonsa beka wae
Memmpepere nko tu mampam mirika
A word to the wise is enough ee

In whatever you do
Patient oo mmmm abotre
No hurry in life mpepere woho na
Abotre wie nkunimdie I say
Don’t buy pressure for yourself oo o
Onua live your life at your own pace

In its time, what belongs to you
Will surely come to you
Take your time
Take your time
Onua live your life at your own pace
In its time, what belongs to you
Will surely come to you
Take your time
Take your time
