In the song “Balance,” by Simi ft Adekunle Gold, the artists spur people to try not to be pressured, but, they should confidently relax, especially when they already have sufficient money in their bank account, or, are in a relationship with someone that reciprocates their love and equally loves them unconditionally.
Also, they advise people not to go beyond their capability, because, this life ain’t fair. In the long or short run, it is grace, God’s backing that helps one to stand out, and not just the ability. Lastly, they spur people to grab an opportunity when it comes their way.
