For us, but we’re gonna make it
Starting all over again is going to be rough
On us, but we gotta face it
Throughout his song, Iam sings about the challenges of rebuilding, but also shares his personal plea for divine help and guidance, calling on the Lord above to provide strength and support to those who need it.
In addition to his performance, Iam took the opportunity to tell viewers how they can offer support to the people of Hawaii during this difficult time. He urged those watching to research and donate to reputable organizations that are assisting those affected by the wildfires. Iam also made an emotional request for viewers to “say prayers for Maui.”

Your performance reminded me of another great Island vocalist and one of my favorites, the late, great bruddah Iz.
The only problem was that the video ended abruptly before you when finish singing!
