[00:59.34]God gave me the grace, amazin' ways of living
[01:01.73]How would you feel if you had to catch your meal?
[01:04.94]Build a hut to live and to eat and chill in.
[01:08.01]Having to pump the water outta the ground
[01:10.46]The way we put it down utilizing what is around
[01:13.16]Like land for farming, river for fishing
[01:15.65]Everyone helpin' each other whenever they can
