The Price of Greatness

Greatness never come on a platter of gold

Is never given to those who never work for it

Greatness yes greatness is entrusted on everyone

You dream greatness you aspire for it

Be real be you be unique be proud of who you are

Because success is who you are

What stuff are you made of will tell where you get to

Because life is not a smooth bed of roses

Sweet moment will come and bitter moment will come

Everything depends on you is in your hands

Pay the price of greatness

Work while others are lazing around

Never eat away the bread of laziness

On the bed of idleness success has so many friends

Failure has none because no one is left without a dream

Walk the work while others are playing away

Time is a thief makes use of it to recover lost treasure

Hard work never kills a man but it strengthen such a man

Never walk in the way of sinners shun the evil counsel

Remember greatness is for those who dare the impossible

Of leaving their comfort zones

And zooms into an uncomfortable zone

In making sure they become someone

Someone to reckoned with when time comes

He took the grits, guts and get to his destination

A goalless person goes on and on through the years

Without not pointing to a thing that worth achieving 

He sees excuses in every task he emback on

He looks at every opportunity too dare to try out

Suddenly the dusk is here he goes to bed void of achieving nothing in that day

Is either you make up your mind now

And pay now then paying latter

For the seed of greatness in you to germinate

You got to stair it up to reawaken it for greater exploits

Price of greatness you decide you pay it now

And achieve greatness there’s a champion in you.

The Sun Will Shine

The storm never outlive sun

No matter what has happen

That happen in the past is gone with the wind

Fade out of sight lives on in the memory

Is always darkest the dusk is not too far

Not too far from the dusk

So no matter what happens

Tomorrow never dies

Bring so much great enthusiasms

In your everyday life go the distance

Take the walk from those who can bring you down

Never walk in the counsel of fool but godly ones

Tomorrow is sure because is pregnant

With great possibilities turning impossible situation around

If you fail and give up while you are in your dark moment

Of what you hold on when the sun set rise and shine

This is time to hit so hard at the iron because is so still hot

While it is called today if your strength is so weak and small

And you see no reason to stand up erect in face off with challenges

I tell you my friend never give up your dreams because of the night

Is always darkest before the dawn

Don’t ever never be discourage just carry on

Though some may break you

Though some may weary you

You have is promise he cannot fail

After Dark

The day is far spent

Today has come and gone

Tomorrow is another day

After dark comes a new day

Fresh and sweet feelings

Is a new day forget yesterday

After dark is that time in life

When life has just fleet away

It seems life is full of disappointment

And your shatter dreams make you question while

Still you try to pick up the broken pieces

And nobody knows the pain you felt inside

So deep inside you it hurts

Too far to touch too hot to contain

Life is full of ups and down

Disappointment abounds

With life threaten issues

Everything is killing and falling apart

Right before your eyes

Darkness, darkness everywhere

No glimpse of light

But you stand head up high

With shoulder place up high

You walk the work go the distance

Making sure you are what you are

Your strength got tested to try you as gold is try in the fire

See no matter what happens

Darkness can never last long

Because the dawn will overtake it

So you wait and be patient no matter what

Pay the cost bring in the best you have

Maximize the Moment

Seconds fades into minutes

Minute fades into hours

Hours into years

Years into millennium

Millennium into eternity

Just on like that in every spheres of human existence

Subtly time fades out goner with the winds

That you cannot recollect it back again

You cannot regain a lost time

Every moment is important

Because once we arrive

The clock of our life starts ticking

Though ticking so slowly but sooner or later

A whole year is gone like a cheetah after her prey

Every moment needs to be use well

And judiciously to the core

Bringing in the best caution ever

Never to allow it fades out from our sight

Have it carefully jealously guided

Each day as it comes

Have what is called to do list

Here you have all what you want to do

In a day clearly written down each seconds and minute

This will go a long way to help you maximize each moment you spend

Each Day As A Gift

The night is far spent

The dusk is here now

Sky so beautiful with stars and moon

Birds has gone back to their nest

The day has come and gone tomorrow is another day

Grace the sight of each day with hope

See each day as a gift to you

To contribute to the existing body of knowledge

Be real and be yourself in all you do

Grape hold of each day’s opportunity as they come

You got just only one day which is today

To be whom you really want to

To make that dream come true

Chase your dream at all cost

Never cut corners walk the work

Each day comes with a blank cheque

Wrap in form of a gift with so much varieties of it

Never neglect each of the gifts be treasure it and value it

Make sure you never go with the crowd as an aimless venture

Results to wasted life lived long while you’ve squandered it all

In an aimless fruitless venture

Void of nothing to gain in any form

Making sure you are what you are inside out

Never settle for less or average reach for the zenith

Each day as a gift

A Life Worth Spend

As we journey through life

Life flows in succession

From dawn to the dusk of man as he goes on and on

With life activities and task daily as the months runs by

A life worth living is a life worth spending

Some spend their days

In chasing what they should not chase at all

Some make the best use of each second

Living in the moment appreciating life

And making sure each moment counts for now and the future

Some live a worthy life

Acceptable in the sight of their maker

Just like that and that brings them before kings

Not mere men of know commercial value

A life worth spend

Of what will life be at the end of the close of the day?

Of what will the tomb stone place on your grave reads?

Pf what impact will you have made while long you are gone?

Of what will the world remember you for?

Of what will generation unborn reads about you?

Will you live a life worthy of acceptable legacy?

Or you will have succeed wasted everything

Gifts, talents, and skills entrusted in your care by your creator maker

See a life worth lived is a life worth spend

You use it wisely or crash it no use just all that

Is better you still now while it is called today

To start living out the purpose of which you are here

A life worth spending is a life worth lived for

Tomorrow history will come calling only what you’ve done

You will be remembered for…a life worth spent

Finishing Strong

Time will elapse and fades

What matters, matters no more

As moment pass by from one second to another

Every time you spend and how you spend such a time

Is what really matters at the close of the day

When life has pass you

Is either you live a fulfilled life

Void of regrets and pain of the past

Regrets that you weren’t able to fulfill your purpose

As your past will never come back again

The pain of you losing it all out

All out in search of what you shouldn’t be chasing

Is either you finish so poorly or strong

Is left to you to decide and choose

Finishing strong

Is all about when you come to the close of the day

To the last mile of the way in your life

And you look back and count the cost

Taken an inventory of what life has been

Do you live out the real purpose while you ought to have

Relentlessly labour now in preparing for the future

The best time to plant a tree is now

Many will die without the hope of unfulfilled dream

Crashed down by the spirit of procrastination and fear

As they long forgotten the manner of person they are

In search of becoming what the society wants them to

They get side tracked distracted and never finishing strong

Taken By Life

As we got through life

Life faces with us off with a great challenges

Some changes us and drift us off from the track

Where we are to the destination seemly impossible

But for every impossible task there is a way out  

A way out of frustration and distress

It only takes you a none nonsense being

Stiff and dogged with great determination

Never wants to be taken down by life’s drama

It forces the hero in us out becoming a great personality

Finish the most daunting task

To race off to the greatness we tend to

Will see the space we take off fill the gaps

Irrespective of what betides

Friends and family fail

No one is there to held to when you needed a friend

Taken by life

Drifted by life

Weigh down by life

Crush down by life

But that life will whether the storm’s of life

Life throws us a lot of challenges

Some drift us off our fast lane and off the track

Taken by life rejected by all left to oneself

But in the midst of loneliness of life

Kept by one goal aim at your dreams

See you getting to the finish line

I see touching down the touch line of life

I see you are born for greatness invented for success

Finding fulfillment and chasing your dreams

Taken by life

Finding Greatness

For everyone created was made for something

Arriving the planet earth with much

So much space to be filled up with much

Much to be done there’s a champion in us all

As generations comes and go a drop of greatness

A drop of greatness is deposited in us all

Is left to us to look inwardly and find it

You are made for a purpose surrounded

With so much big space the universe

The world accords us each day with opportunity

Opportunities to reinvest in the current investment

To go the distance in  attaining greatness

Find your niche and work towards it

Greatness is never gotten on a platter of gold

Walk the work go the distance achieve greatness

In finding greatness, you find fulfillment

You look at yourself what you are good at

Of what value can you give to the society

Society wants games changers a new breed

Of thinkers and revolutionaries…find greatness

For everyone there’s a drop of greatness

A greatness is entrusted in us all

Is left to us to all to discover in us

Looking inwardly and rethinking of what you become

Life is in give and takes what do you look out for

As each day comes by find your niche and get greatness 

Remember Today!

Today is the day you’ve got

To make that life counts

Both now and in eternity

Living in the moment for God and man

Today is that moment

To make God the center of your life

Following peace towards all men

Living for God and not for the god of this world

Becoming that person God wants you to be

Never living a life that is never God’s

Remember today

Is the day you’ve got to prepare

For the future and eternity

Making each minutes count

Live a worthy accepted life

Be sure of your existence

And discovering that purpose

Of which you are created for

Never been an empty shadow within

But becoming the ambassador of Christ

Living for Him

Either in good times

And when is not easy at all

Been what you are doing now

Live in righteousness contending for the truth

Acting right…say no

To unholy association that is not of God

Avoid the works of darkness live for God not society

Becoming all you can by living in the center of His will

Not men but His

Remember today

That one day you bid the world farewell

Only what you’ve done will last and live on

While you are gone, let today be a glorious passage

Into a fulfilling eternity…Remember now thy creator

Live the dream

In this world difficulties abound
With challenges from everywhere
Disappointment from friends and family
Problems of life within and without
Fear of what the future has in stuck
Live the dream.

No matter the difficulties, challenges,
Disappointment, problems and our fears
Of the future uncertain live the dream
Act right.

Stand tall when friends fail
Move up, move on
When disappointment arise
Make your commitment strong
When problems comes face it
And deal with it stand tall fight
For the right live the dream.



It pains at times if we are face
With disappointment from close
Friends so call close intimate
Ones will love and cherish so much
That’s one of those things, life
Don’t bother on that because
You don’t know who got our back.

There are two set of friends
The one who got our back
The one who bears with us
The ones who are reserve to themselves
The third these kind of people
They are difficult to move with
Because their attitude, character
Disposition, you can’t really
Understand them never.

Live the dream, face your life
Leave them to themselves
Look at them from a distance
Stall take the bull by the horn.

All the people, friends and family
All you’ve worked for
You’ve ever live for that’s life
That’s human being for you
You can never please the world
A friend, nor a brother, sister
Even mother or father never
You can’t tell who is who
So watch your back.
This life
Take charge, rule your world………..

Staying Strong to Finish Strong

Our life is what we make out of it

From the moment we arrive to when we exist

But what matters so much is what we make out of it

Life is what we live and remember for while long we’ve gone

 But the challenge keeps up springing

On every side challenges becomes insurmountable

With the path been so slim not clear anymore

We move from one destination to an unknown destination

But we never know why we wonder about

Inspite of it all we choose to stay strong to finish strong

On each street we thread through on

With a path left behind by those who fail

Fallen at the corridor of frustration and given up

When strength become so weak and slim fading out

Then what’s the point…you stay strong to finish strong

One day history will call

You better decide on how you want to end it all

Leaving a worthy legacy behind by you

Staying strong through the period of the stormy challenges

And then finishing strong surmounting the odds

Stay on the course making sure your eyes are on it

Try everything to bring out the best match

Make sure you walk the work and race off to that moment

When it all made sense for you and your generation

I challenge you that no matter what happen

You make sure you stay strong on a worthy cause

Bringing in the best of the best of your best brain

That you’ve got and make sure you work most

Tomorrow is too near to be lived in wasted effort

Stay strong you finish strong…stay weak you amount but less to nothing

I see you finishing strong

Because you got what it takes to make it through to the top

Diligent, discipline, desire and determination

See yourself as one who got something special to offer

Make the best count, living the life that count for God and mankind

Stay with God been strong and finish strong
