Intro - Instrumental)**
*(Log drums, synth bass, shakers. Fades in with a cooking sound effect: chopping veggies)*
**Adlib (Fante):** *Eii! Check am!*
**Adlib (English):** *Feed your soul, yeah!*
**(Verse 1 - English)**
Woke up this mornin', scrollin' through the noise
Negative headlines, stealin' all my joy
Gossip on my timeline, poison in my ear
Felt my spirit weaken, clouded up with fear
Then I remembered what my grandma used to say:
"You are what you eat, every single day!"
Not just the food, yeah, it's what fills your mind
Gotta change the menu, leave the junk behind!
**(Pre-Chorus - Fante)**
*Nsemkyire a wotie no,
Ɔsow w'adwen mu! (It plants in your mind!)
Nnipa a wodi won nkyɛn no,
Wɔma w'akoma nkum! (They make your heart heavy!)*
**(Chorus - Fante & English)**
**Fante:** *Nkwa nkɔkɔɔ! (Life is precious!)
M'akoma nkyɛ! (My heart rejects it!)
Junk input no, mepɛ clean plate! (I want a clean plate!)*
**English:** *Garbage in, garbage out! Yeah, that's the rule!
Feed your mind wisdom, stay sharp like a tool!
Clean plate, clean mind oh!
Nourish your soul, let the good things flow!*
**(Verse 2 - Fante)**
*Media a wohwɛ no, nsɛm a wote,
Ɔma w'ani so atwom! (Makes your eyes dim!)
"Friends" a wɔbɔ wo ntam, wɔn nsɛm nyinaa nkɔkɔɔ,
Ɔma w'asomdwoeɛ nsa! (Steals your peace!)
M'ani bɛgye "Akyeke" no so! (I'm tired of "Junk"!)
Mepɛ "nkontompo" ne "nkate nkwan"! (I want "wisdom" & "peanut soup"!)
M'asɛm ne sɛ: "Hwɛ wo adwen sɛ wo yadeɛ!" (My word is: "Guard your mind like your health!")*
**(Pre-Chorus - English)**
The words you listen to, the sights you see,
They shape your whole reality!
The company you keep, the vibe you feel,
Is it lifting you up? Or keeping you unreal?
**(Chorus - Fante & English)**
**Fante:** *Nkwa nkɔkɔɔ! (Life is precious!)
M'akoma nkyɛ! (My heart rejects it!)
Junk input no, mepɛ clean plate! (I want a clean plate!)*
**English:** *Garbage in, garbage out! Yeah, that's the rule!
Feed your mind wisdom, stay sharp like a tool!
Clean plate, clean mind oh!
Nourish your soul, let the good things flow!*
**(Bridge - Call & Response)**
**Lead (English):** What you EAT...!
**Response (Fante):** *Ɔma wo ahoɔden! (Gives you strength!)*
**Lead (English):** What you THINK...!
**Response (Fante):** *Ɔma wo nkɛntɛn! (Gives you clarity!)*
**Lead (English):** What you FEED your SOUL...!
**Response (Fante):** *Ɔma wo asomdwoeɛ! (Gives you peace!)*
**All:** **YEAH!**
**(Outro - Fante & Adlibs)**
*Hwɛ wo nkwa nsɛm! (Guard your life's input!)
M'akoma nkyɛ junk! (My heart rejects junk!)
Nourish wo ho! Nourish wo ho! (Nourish yourself!)
Clean plate! Clean mind!
Adwen fɛfɛɛ! (Pure mind!)
Asomdwoeɛ! (Peace!)
Yɛbɛ di nkwa! (We will live well!)
*(Music fades with upbeat horns, log drums, and a final cooking sizzle sound)*
