Tru Mantra‘s “Jeje” takes the wisdom of Proverbs 3:5 – 6 and puts it to a song.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.”
With only one life to live, the choice is either to struggle with the frustrating limitations of self or to trust in God and rest in His boundless love.
From the catchy hook to the message-laden verses, the song outlines the right choice and urges the listener to take it.
As you sing along to the chorus, let the message of the song sink in.
With only one life to live, we can’t afford not to take it jeje!

Jeje – Tru Mantra (Lyrics)
Written by Lanre Abiose and Tony Okwechime
Chorus:
Jeje laye yi o, Jeje laye yi (Take life easy)
Jeje laye yi o, Jeje laye yi (Take life easy)
Jeje laye yi o, Jeje laye yi (Take life easy)
Jeje laye yi o, Jeje laye yi (Take life easy)
Verse:
Aye o pe meji, ko pe meji (You don’t have two lives)
Aye kan lowa-a-a-a-a (There’s only one life)
We don’t know where we wanna go
We don’t know what we wanna do
Only He can save, only He can save
You feel like nothing seems to make any sense
You’ve got it, but it really doesn’t quench your thirst
You’ve done it, but it makes you feel so depressed
It feels like no one that you know really cares
Just know that He truly, truly cares yeah
He died just to show that He cares yeah
He’ll wipe away your tears, cos He cares yeah, cos He cares yeah.
