NEW DAY NEW OPPORTUNITY

There was time we need a fresh air
From the drama that comes with life
Facing it squarely without giving up
Is just another in this beautiful paradise
With beautiful people around us

Feel like the being of the hour
Like the men of the hour whose got the world at his feet
Everyone is at the beak and call of you
Feeling like the dashing damsel of the hour
With so much energy positive vibes to give out

Is a new day to meet with destiny
To meet with that special being
That will make us complete
From within springs forth well of sweet smelling faces
An enchanting heart

New day to open up for love
Enough to try again even burnt
Several by the fire and flames of love
That drives the heart crazy
Shattering the mind asunder

New day of opportunity
To rewrite history righting the wrong
Make amend of yesterday to make up for today
Birthing the new idea of a new world
New day new opportunity

Open up losing up
Bring it on breaking it all out
Live the laugh and be happy with it
Created for nothing but the top
Is a new resounding day for you

AN UNENDING LOVE

Amazing grace
Amazing privilege
Amazing sweetness
Amazing feelings
An unending love

Amazing grace
Without God’s grace tell me
What would have becoming of me
He love me when I didn’t care
Patiently waiting before His grace fund me

Pick me up above the sinking ground of life
Race me above my fear takes all my fear out
Dashing it against the cross I came plain before Him
He never use my past and excesses against me
Nothing but is grace kept me through the trying times

Amazing privilege
He called me His own birth me into His father house
Even while I wonder far away from the father’s house
He brought me back as a porter He remolds me to His image
Amazing privilege to be called His own for life

Amazing sweetness
Each day breaks with a fresh sweetness
Within my soul and heart leaps for joy
Knowing fully that am His own and He is mine
So sweet to walk with Him all the way in my journey through life

Amazing feelings
That feeling that brought a enough assurance
That because He lives I can face the tomorrow
With Him in picture of my life I can face tomorrow
The best feeling ever that never bring fear of heartbreaks

An unending love
What a love in its purest form
The love that cost nothing to stay on or manage
Unconditional love it is He got my back for real
An amazing grace with an amazing privilege to be called His own

DON’T COME FORMING, COME PLAIN

Each one and everyone has a niche
In which they all belong and rap
As we go about our daily activities
We run into different human
Be it online and offline

It takes all sorts of people
This space called world where we live in
Some are toxic with bad energy
Some are best of the best of brand of human
With excess characters to deal with

We find those living out what they are not
While long ago they have forgotten
Their real self of which they arrive with
From day one here on this planet called earth
Don’t come forming come plain

Come plain and lets know the real you
So we can be able to deal with it
Because is better to accept you
Just the way you are then what you are not
Forming won’t pay you at all

Been real is what matters most
A fake life is life of lie
You are just a shadow of someone else
Who is going to fade out of relevant someday
When the real you suffice

Is better to come plain
Then to come forming
Who you are not truly what
Is better to be know by your worth
Then the worth of something you’re not created to be

Show me your colour
Let me deal with that
Never for a second be bothered
Whether your true colour will be accepted or not
Let me deal with that and if I can’t deal with it

Is either I tried to work
On the bad side of you
To become a better you
Or I take a walk please
Don’t come forming but
Come plain it pays to be you.

NO TURNING BACK

As terrifying as it may be
Sometimes the best thing in the world
That can happen to us
Is for the cage door to slam shut

When the door closes on yesterday
We must bring our energies to today
When we can’t go back
Then we’re forced to go forward
Not turning back

Without safety of the cage
Tempting us to reverse course
We must bring all that we are our creativity
Resiliency, innovation and resourcefulness
To our new jungle

One of the best things that
Ever happened to the children of Israel
Was when God closed the Red Sea
After triumphant exodus out of Egypt
The water opened before them so that could escape

But it also closed behind them
Preventing them from returning
And later it takes them forty years
It took them to reach the promise land
When there is no turning back
Your instincts will lead you forward

AN AUDIENCE HUNGRY FOR HOPE

We all long for that place
Where we can call home
Where the mind, heart and soul is at home
Where peace of mind is at full glare of it all
Hungry for hope waiting for hope

We want to feel home in our home
Not been home while we are home
We are audience hungry for hope
For a better tomorrow while living in today
We seek for greater today for a better hope

Our home is deserted
As our hope is dashed to the rock
The storms has come ravaging
All what we’ve worked for and live for
An audience hungry for hope that’s what we are

A land where hope once lived
We had about life yes life in the city
That’s where hope and dreams come true
Where hopes aspiration and determination dwells
An audience hungry for hope

We’ve wondered from here and there
We are hungry so desperately hungry
Hungry for hope of a better today
For a greater tomorrow the future
In creating the future we want to live in

Seeking for just one thing
For hope for a better living
We seek to be all we can be
To bring nothing but the best of life to live
An audience hungry for hope

NEW YEAR'S EVE

There’s earnest preparation going on 

Streets are getting too busy to contain 

No one wants to be left out preparing 

For the new dawn of another year 

Cleaning of all sorts is going on 

To usher in the New Year

People that never been to the church 

Are trooping in mass to religious houses 

To pray they’re way through into the New Year 

With making New Year’s resolution 

Reeducating their lives to God 

The New Year’s Eve 

Is filled with so such activities

Some reflect on their life 

How has it all been during the old year? 

And some are asking for a second chance 

To make it up to God 

While some thought the end of the world Has come

That’s the New Year’s Eve for you 

What do you do on that day? 

Drink at a beer parlors 

Or in the house of God 

Seeking His face 

At New Year’s Eve.

CHRISTMAS A SEASON OF GIVING BACK

A REAL MAN

Not just a real man on the bed
But that one who is so real in all ways
Who got what it takes to be that man
Everyone can count on and rely on
A real man

Is ye that is faithful
Faithful in little things and great things
One who eschew evil and also shun

The counsel of the unwise
Who never walk in the way of sinful deeds
One in whom sincerity resides in

Not just a mere common man
But an uncommon man whose breeds is rare to find anywhere
Who attributes outstand the mixed multitude
Where he stand as he shines forth that deeds
Of what a real man should be

Not been good in bed alone
But one who controls his emotion, feelings and desires
Who never allows his heart to overrule his head
Whose sense of judgement is unrestricted by anything
That is a real man

Who has not lost his integrity
To lust, fame and power
Who held up high the morals of a good godly man
A real man is real in all its ways and endeavour
A real man

Is that one who doesn’t fake it all
The life of Christ resides in him as he lives in out all times
As he is seen shinning forth the real righteousness of God
Not just a religious fellow but a righteous one
A real man is not a mere church goer

Not just the one who worship Christ alone
But a real man is that one who lives like Christ
Both in public and private eye
A real man contend for the faith
He never buys into fake

Not a religious fanatics
Not a church tradition kind of man
Not an hypocrite nor churchanisim kind of
Not an eye service nor an deceitful man
A real man is subject to a fault and takes correction

2020 A YEAR NOT TO FORGET IN HASTE

The year book of 2020
Is filled with so much occasions and event
And so much memories that made it memorable
From the dawn of it arrival as each one chant
A strong resounding happy new year

A lot beclouds the existence of the year 2020
Though so many started the year with high hope
Not knowing what is behind the smile of 2020
Each one set forth first their best foot
On the start line of 2020 to begin the race

Is a year everyone has waited patiently for
With the 2020 vision that in the year so many
Innovation would have been invented
Cars will run with water, electricity and even fly on air
With the ease of making life so easy to live

Making the world a global community village
Living in the jet age of technology
This great innovation will touch every sector of human life
Music, hospitality, health, education, religious and political space
2020 a year not to forget in haste

But it serves us with a different view
As everyone was shock to the bone marrow
Of all what that came along with 2020
As vision 2020 wasn’t realize at all
All gone with the winds and time

It fades out and fades away
Like a thief visiting unaware unannounced
Tomorrow is better off while we seat wait patiently
All plans squashed rendered unattainable
Life suddenly change and we start to beginning

To get accustom to what we weren’t used to
As new events becomes into our reality living life
With care and caution everyone was lock out
Lockdown in private nothing like
The normal busy and fun filled life anymore

THE CRY

When the saints are gone
Mercy will not be any more
This is the time to seek for mercy
Be conscious of eternity
Prepare to meet thy Lord

Cry now when you can be heard
Shout that shout now while you can
Rapture is eminent…heaven hell is real
Take yield and have a rethink make that decision

Your decision today
Will determine your final destiny
Signs of the time are everywhere
There is a brand new feeling in the sky
The cry

Take yield lest you fall
Stand in the gap and stand firm
Don’t play religious be righteous
Get right within once and for all
The cry

Seek Calvary path while it is called today
There is still a lot of blood flowing at Calvary today
Cry the cry of salvation and restoration now
Tomorrow may mean goodbye we never know when or how
God calls us away by death or rapture

When the saints are no more
There won’t be mercy anymore
The blood we cease flowing
Get the lamp ready and prepare
To meet thy Lord…it is too dangerous to give up now

THE FUTILITY IN RELYING ON MAN

The arms of flesh we fail
The one who say I will be there
That same one who drift off like a candle in the wind
The one who say I will be at your back 5/6
Will be gone like a sleep of the night

The one we think got our back
Won’t be there when we need a back to rest
When life comes biting so hard
The one who claims we be there we not be there again
The futility in relying on man

Man is unpredictable
Things can change at any time
And reality will dawn on you
That you have made so much wrong trust
On trusting and relying so much on man

The best thing that can happen to a man
Is to rely on God at all time
And shouldn’t make Him the last resort at all
In good time and bad time of life
The futility of relying on man

God’s words never change for any season
Man’s words are sweet and smoothing
But filled with so much failure and shortcomings
God’s network is so strong and signals never fails
Man’s network not sure but fluctuating in nature

GRATEFUL

Am grateful for life
Am grateful for everything that has happen
To the ones who walked out on one
To friendship who never sees the light of the next day
Grateful

For all that has happen
And all that is yet to happen
Tomorrow is but yet a distance away
Living in the moment while it is called today
Grateful

Grateful for life
The gift of health amidst so much wealth
Am so awe in the amazement of unsearchable
Grace, faithfulness with so much unconditional love
This God is too much for me am so bless I no fit shout

Grateful for so much love
Sometimes life seems unfair
But His love came through for me
When the life’s battle becomes so hard to fight
He fought for me even when am not the one fighting am the one winning

Am grateful for the life in me
Am so grateful for friends and family
Am so grateful for good health
Am so grateful for me myself
Grateful

For each moment that comes alive
For each time I fall and you catch me up
For each time I fail you draw me close to you
For each time You never allow the enemy to rejoice over me
Grateful


I stand in amazement of your love
Your love is more than the highest mountain
Deeper than the deepest ocean
Taller than the Mount Everest
Am forever grateful to You Lord

PROBLEM NO DEY FINISH

Abeg no worry yourself too much
Tomorrow get belle for you
No cry dry that water from your face
Face today with strong mind
Because problem no dey finish

See if you don try and try
No bi time for you to walker
Stay and stay no time for giving up
If tomorrow no come make use of today
But I no today is the best time to make tomorrow make sense

See water go come and go
Sure thing problems go surely come
Cos that one na part of this life we dey inside
See no think ‘em at all to take that life of yours
Be rest assure God dey e no dey forget his own

Night goes first come but sweet mind come in the morning
Forget about watin dey happen now
Just take chill and chill yourself because
Problem no dey finish and e no dey get expirer date

Let each day handles itself
Be real and live the moment
Take each day as it comes
Go the distance in making yourself happy
Problem no dey finish at all

DEFINITION OF ME

I am me
I don’t need your approval to be me
I don’t fake it at all to seek society’s approval
As I strive to become a better me
I am me and that’s the definition of me

I am me
I love been myself not themselves
Not what anyone wants me to become
Whatever betides I stand to me
I am me and nothing can contest to that fact

I am what the father say I am
Cause I was made in His image
And still in His image am living
Because in Him I move and have my being
Without God am nothing because His all have got

His grace came calling when no one was there
His grace found me in a place where justice demanded my life
His grace picks me up from the dustiness of the miry clay
His grace kept me on and on my feet on solid ground to stay
Definition of me

You can call me names and all that
But that is to you since am not what you label me
I am me that’s the definition of me
I pick up the lines of the harsh critics words throw at me
I make it a milestone in building a monument that outlive tomorrow

I am me
Have come thus far to let the words of mere mortals
Pull me down as I go through life
I realize that either you are good or bad
People will talk about you

But what they say about me
I don’t let it bring me down anymore
But I take in the world and take a sincere search inventory
Is it true about what they say about it
Then I work on myself but I never allow their words to dwell in me
I am me the definition of me

WHILE BLEND IN WHILE YOU CAN STAND OUT

Awaken to what matters
Be realistic in an unrealistic world
Never chase that person wind
Create your environment be you in all
What makes you, you

While blend in
You got to be real
You got to stop been society
Of what they feel and see about you
While you can stand out

Others may be claiming and forming
What they are not trying to be this and that
While long ago they have stop leaving
The real life of themselves becoming a photocopy
But wait…

While blend in while you can stand out
While you can live to that full potentials
Of been you and nothing more than yourself
Others may fake it, form it and frame up
What they really not

Blend in into yourself
Blend in into your dream
Blend in into your goals and aspiration
Blend in into you not them the society’s feels
While blend in while you can stand out

Stand out in the midst of unreal human around
Stand out in these days of fake life everywhere
Stand out in this turbulent time of trying to be someone’s
Stand out and don’t stand in trying to blend
While blend in while you can stand out

Don’t bend…don’t blend
Don’t bend your standard for anyone
Don’t blend but lend your support of becoming the real you
Don’t bend and blend to be forgotten living a life of photocopy
While blend in while you can stand out

OASIS…The Enemy Within

Like a subtle ant it crept in
Right beneath the cloth between our skin
Like a scourge of the sun of afternoon time
Moment after moment it goes subtlety
Like a ravaging monster..Oasis

Destroying the host
Without the host not knowing
Act like an air conditioning
So cold, cool and calm
That its host cannot detect it deception

Like a thief in the night
Visiting its prey unannounced to steal valuables
Like a sand at the sea shore
Washed away with the water in the river
Oasis…The enemy within

Like a parasite living under its host
Looking nice appearing beautiful outside
But within lies an arsenal of an unimaginable element
Like a charming prince within lies a chattering looks
Oasis…the enemy within

You can’t detect…you can smell it
As the smile of the perfume hose out
Just like the scent on heaven angelic bodies
But alas within lies deadly things
Unimaginable beyond human expectation

You see in life
You don’t know who got your back
Better still who wants you out of the game
Life is a jungle you got to keep your head up strong
Be realistic in all ways be the you, you want to see in others

Don’t go around back stabbing anyone
Everyone needs someone they can confide in
Not the one who we tear them down
Remember not to be an
Oasis…enemy within

TO THE HOMES WE LOST

To the ones who walked away
To the one who dashed the hope
To the ones who left us for nothing
To the one who gave up and left
To irrecoverable lost we lost the home

To tides of friendship that got broken and lost
That took a walk and indulged
On a long last hatred without course
As the course of our life is at stake
Hurt, wondered and left to die of affiliation

To the homes we lost
To the love that never finds it way home
To the long loving affection that was brought to halt
To the life that was so cared for and never cared back
To the home we lost

So many years have come and gone
So many fights for life…for love
So many grudges bottled up inside
So many unanswered questions but heaven holds all the answer
To the homes we lost

Like a thunder bolt it came hitting one
Leaving like a big hole in the heart
Fades away like the candle in the wind
But it refuses to be wash away
Like a name written in the sand at the sea shore

But it refuses to fade away
Like a life it lives on not like a memory
That is to the home we’ve lost
Hmm…it gone like a wind
To the home we’ve lost

Gather courage move on
Find a life try not to be let down
Stand up for the life forge ahead
Don’t put your life on hold better days ahead
To the home we lost

STREETS OF LAGOS

From the busyness of the roads
To the calmness at night
When the heart returns to bed
And the body is rested from the day’s work
Street of Lagos

The hustlers are hustling
Either for better life or more better off life
In search of comfort and luxuries
In the pursuit of happiness and joy
Street of Lagos

Everyone is here and there
Running here and there
The street of Lagos
Is so busy in her loudness
The lousiness of city knows no boundary

The light that brings back dawn
Even during the dusk of the night
The day is so captivating in the aurora
Of the beautification of the landscape
Transcending every human imagination

What a beautiful state
Little wonder she was named
The center of excellence
Of a truth excellence is seen in all corners of Lagos
Street of Lagos

The abode of every tribe in Nigeria a no man’s lands
Located in the west of this great nation
The giant of Africa built on the Africa soil
Rich in culture and civilization
Street of Lagos

The horns from the car
The chant from those selling the wears
The street here and there wearing that looks
The street of Lagos is so designed to beautify everything
Street of Lagos

NIGHT FALLS IN LAGOS

The lights that lights our path
As the street pave way for new look at night
The night falls comes with so much
On the streets of Lagos
The city of so much many to offer

From the hustle and busyness of the day
Transcending to the night crawlers
Those who wake up from the dusk
To keep pace of life on the street
Night falls in Lagos

Some start hustling from the dawn of the morning
While some sleep all through the day
Waiting for the dusk to set in at evening time
Then the night falls comes but the brain
Never falls asleep but awake

Take a long walk out in the evening
On the street of Lagos not leaving a stone untouched
Venture as far as your tired body can carry you
From the street to the highways
Night falls in Lagos

From the one selling off his / her wears
To the one who seat in front of his house
With kids and wife taking a cool gentle evening fresh air
As the kids gather around enjoying the presence of their father
Night falls in Lagos

At the other corner
I saw a father helping out his toddler daughter
On the assignment given by her educator at school
Just there in front of his wife shop with light from the generator
Nights fall in Lagos

Then the high way
There the dawn just broke in the midst of dusk
The brain just beginning in the dusk
The heart races for a better life
Night falls in the Lagos

YOUR ACTIONS REFLECT YOUR CONSCIENCE

Our values direct our actions
And the ways we act in the world
Continually shape our personal authority
Ethical actions strengthen our conscience
Unethical actions weakens it

It’s really that simple
And our actions are directly
Shaped by our programming
Our thoughts and our values
As your actions reflect your conscience

It’s easier to act ethically
When you know what you value
If you connect with people personally or professionally
Whose values are different from yours
It can cause you to veer off course

We’ve probably all succumbed at one time
Or another to the temptation to cross the line
Caught up in the emotion of the moment
And the desire to please others
Or a certain goal we go off in the wrong direction

But with a strong and clear conscience
You won’t be blown off course for long
You will turn around and once again
Head toward the way you should go
Your action determines all about you

Your actions speak so loudly
That I cannot hear what you say
Our actions are clearest indicator
Of the state of our conscience
Steadfast adherence to a strict moral code

Those how have integrity unified
In that their thoughts words and deeds
Are in line with their values and conscience
They are whole individuals
They are people you can trust

I hope you are one of those people
Let your actions reflects
Your value and your conscience
And you’ll experience the wholeness
That integrity brings

WHAT’S NOT FAIR

When life is not fair
When all about life
Is that shortcoming and this shortcoming
When life is full of disappointment
What’s not fair

When you walk and work tirelessly hard
And pull that effort…these resources
Yet you still remain at the bottom of the ladder
And you’re not climbing up but remain there
What’s not fair

When you search and search
For a lasting loving companion
Yet love refuses to visit nor blink an eye your way
But just series of heartbreak been taking for fool
What’s not fair

When you watch others walked pass by in peers
And you are just one person mopol
With no backup anywhere
You build and chase your dream in the dark
Attain success in the dark all alone by yourself

What’s not fair
When you’ve labored and relentless work
Just to make your family live the life they desired
And it seems reaching that goal is
Far to reach too hold to touch

Locked up in your own world
Sick and snare by false affiliations everywhere
Fake smiles coupled with chicken kinds of love
A pain in the neck…the pinch of an enemy
Becoming deadly than the stab of a friend

What’s not fair
When the one you deeply love
Never reciprocated back the affection you have inside of you
When you’ve got to work on yourself
To cut some so much excess here and there
In becoming a better person
That you use to be yesterday in today for the future and for that special person

DESTROYING THE THING WE LOVE

Our past shape our present
The past hurts and resentment
Suffice all the time when we have it near
Having what we love and adores most to our heart
The past all of a sudden suffice

To destroy and ruin all what we desire
That brings us so much joy and happiness
I know my past is the making of the ruin
Of the moment struggle so much to overcome it
Destroying the thing we love

We struggle to let it go
With so much help within
And all around people thinks one is too aggressive
And not been willing to let it go
When it hurts so bad like a volcano erupting inside

Deep within scream for help
Seeking urgent rehab like a psycho
Who is losing it all out not been able to contain it all
Allowing the past life to ruin the present life
Destroying the thing we love

Have got lots of excesses
With this short coming and that weakness
All littered here and there I can’t just help it
Without any shadow of doubt I know am not fine
And needed help ‘cos myself is getting the best of me

Like a thunder bolt it hits one hard
Hard to the deepest part of one
Everything is falling just apart
Life becomes uninteresting to staying in
Destroying the things will love the past catching up

Lord help me to let go of the past
And to come into that full healing of the past
To chase after life and move on in becoming a better place
Have tried and toil on my own I let go and let God
Help me and heal me so I wont keep
Destroying the things I love

MADU OR ANUMANU

Is either you are madu
Or the other way round anumanu
A sober question to ponder on
What kind of madu are you?

Are you an onlooker madu
Or the one who go with the crowd
Who is a pain in the neck
Or you are a foe faking friendship
Which are you madu or anumanu

Look here are three kinds of madu
The one who make things happen
The one who watch things happen
The one who let things happen
To which do you belong

Are you chasing the wind
Are living an aimless life
Wondering like a ship whose lost her compass
On the sea of life ravaging by the storms of life
Too weak to stand the fierceness of the wind

Is either you are madu
Or the other way round anumanu
The earlier you realize this and come to terms with it
The better of you becoming the madu
The world we come celebrating someday

Remember this if you forget everything
That you got a date history and that you must keep
Someday you will stand on the stage of life
To share your success story of how far you’ve come
The odds, dejection, rejection and betrayals you surmount

So walk today to become that madu
Whom the world will give room for
Remember the world gives room for the one
Who knows where he or she is going
Which are you madu or anumanu

Don’t be a fool playing anumanu
Who’s got no destination in life

CHOICE IS A CHARACTER

How you act in the world
How your conscience plays out
In the bigger arena determines your character
For you to execute ethically
The most important thing you can
Equip yourself with is good character

It is underpinning for every connection
It should be the underpinning of your life
A good name is better than great riches
Yet we are under so much pressure to perform today
In business and in our personal lives

That it’s easy to succumb
To shades of gray when we try to achieve
Something great of importance
But if you succumb you risk forfeiting
Your good name and losing the character
That should be the very foundation of your life

Character is a choice
You make each and every day
You – character lasting rewards
You – compromise temporary reward
You can take the high road of character
Or the low road of compromise

We’re faced with these small moments
Of choice constantly but even if they seem small
The consistent choices we make will
Determine how ethical we are
Character is a choice

MAKING DIFFICULT CHOICES

Our character is shaped
Most strongly in the moments
When we are called to make difficult choices
Sometimes doing the right thing
Requires personal sacrifice

But the reward is always worth the cost
Undoubtedly there will be times
When you do the right thing
And it causes you or other people pain
Making difficult choices

Owning up to mistake
Is never easy being the only one
In your crowd to say no to another drink is not pleasant
But if you feel the pain because
You’ve done the right thing think of this

When you’re on your deathbed
How will you view your choice to act ethically?
Most of us would prefer to endure
Short term pain if we know the long term consequences
Will make the sacrifice worth it

Gandhi said…
A man is the sum of his action
Of what he has done of what he can do nothing else
The good news is that you can choose your action
Every day you wake up to a clean slate
A brand new day in which to start all over

You don’t have to wait till morning
You can do it right now
Every moment is an opportunity
To choose the right path for the situation

ANIKOKANLO

Hustle like mad
Run the street like a legend
In pursuit to have it all
From dusk to dawn
Been on the trail of been great

All this been here and there
Caught away in the hustle and bustle of life
Life ends meats to make the hustle pay at last
But life itself is nothing but a sleep of a night
Boom it blows up on our eyes rubbing it on our face

We drag this brag that
With all these gara…gara
Been so mean in all to all
Irrespective of what one attains in life
Six feet is the justification of it all

Bi tin laye
It will definitely and surely fade out
With time like in the sun of the morning
Our life like vapor soon it will be gone with the wind
And all we’ve emphases we go

As we leaving it all behind us
When the cold flitting hands of death
Take us and lead us home at the close of the day
See life is just nothing so losing up
Live it while you may because tomorrow may mean goodbye

Remember empty will come empty we return
Anikokanlo that is the true undisputable facts
Acquire this property that wealth
Got this certificate got that prestige
Chase that deadline achieve that dream

When life is over and you close your eyes
With hands fold up and body becomes cold
Anikokanlo bi tin laye so while it is call today
Remember that life is nothing inspite all of what you acquire
It will all end in six feet nothing beyond that
And we are not taking anything out of this world called life

ILE ANUOLUWA KIN SHI

The steadfastness of our Lord
Never fails His mercies never comes to an end
They are new every morning
Great is thy faithfulness
Ile anuoluwa kin shi

From the foundation of the world
God’s faithfulness remain in exhaustible
From the greatness of His boundless mercy
That transcends beyond human reasoning
Ile anuoluwa kin shi

In every imagination God is good
His loving kindness keeps on coming to us
Even when our ways seems far from Him
He still made a way for us and bring us back
To the father’s house ile anuoluwa kin shi

From the north to the south
The greatness of God’s mercy speaks
To the East far across the west
His faithfulness spreads far beyond land o’er hills
Ile anuoluwa kin shi

Who am I that you are so mindful of
Who am I that you so love me so much
Who am I that I deserve all this so much grace
Who am I that you never let go or give up on me
Who am I that your mercies comes alive every morning
Ile anuoluwa kin shi

Of a truth God’s mercies so plenty
Little wonder He went to Calvary for my sake
God’s grace came at a time when I don’t deserve it
His unfailing promises are ever there at all time
Ile anuoluwa kin shi

THE NIGERIA OF MY DREAM

We lived in a country where we seek for justice for all
And wants the best for all citizens be it rich or poor
Where live matters irrespective of who you are
As where we are from are not the bases of how we are treated
Be it in the mood house or in the mansion all are equals

Where no one is afraid to seek redressing in the court of law
Where the law of the land is favourable to one and all
Where no thieves of public or private funds are left scot free
As each government officials are held accountable
For every penny of the state’s money and tax payers money

A country where the one living on the mainland
Will not have to endanger is or her life in leaving home so early
To beat the Lagos traffic just to get to work on time
Where teachers who prepares lesson note
And end up teaching in an unfit classroom devoid of future and fittings

A country where we have good road network
Void of series of causalities all because
Of bad road filled the pothole on every turn of the wheel
Avoid long waste of time and manpower hour
The Nigeria of my dream

Where we beginning to see political offices
As a will to serve humanity not to an ends
To emerses wealth for ourselves and our family
Likewise generations unborn leaving the resources
Of this great nation in the hands of selected few just in a circle

A Nigeria dream where all sectors are working
Be it education, power, housing, job creation etc
Where we uphold nothing but justice
Where a looter of funds is never celebrated
Where our judicial system delivered unbiased verdict on time

Oh God of creation
Direct our noble course
Guide thou our leaders right help
The youth the truth to know
The Nigeria of my dream

ENDSARS

We live in a country where everything is lost
Where we just have a mere constitution
In ink and paper like a toothless bull dog
Whose got tooth but just bark and do nothing
Where corruption is at its peak and police brutality reigns like rain

We clamour for the change
And seek to bring the one
Will all voted into power for questioning
But the one who holds the seat of governance
Has turn to the one who is above the law

While we go on and say we practice democracy
Whereas we are not democrat in every system of government
The same constitution state no one is above the law
While those who seat on the seat of governance
See themselves as the high mighty ones

Whose action cannot be question
And it went on and on like that
Many years had come and gone likewise administrations
And yet will still remain on the same war front
We have not even come close to conquest

As the chant continues and lingers
Everyone is watching from a distance
As they have shot some dead
While the dreaded deadly bullet
Leaves a scarce that will forever live in our mind

We march for justice and equity not for violence
We march for emancipation from police brutality
We march for the now see and the future we seek
We march for one course and one creed fair play for all
We march for transformation that we see great reformation

Ending the menace of endsars
How our young ones are misjudge and mistreated
How the one in the government have so boorish this nation
With self seeking selfish pocket of what the belle can consume
Drunk and intoxicated with the wine of power

YOU AND LIFE

You never win except you fight
You can get water under the ground except you dig
You have to run the race before you get to finish line
You never have victory without conquest
You have to fail except you try

You have to contend for the faith to keep the faith
You have to stand against fake for you to have the real thing
You have to have a visit to Calvary before its effect in your life
You never have the taste to finish until you fight for it
You have to contend with death before you know the worth of life

You fail to encourage yourself you will lose everything
You fail to chase your dream you end up been mediocre
You fail to burn the midnight candle you go through life nothing
You fail to sleep away on the bed of idleness you will eat the bread of laziness
You fail to live the life you have society will impose another life to you

If you fail in little areas of life you fail in everything
If you shun the word of an elder in the early days of life
If you refuse to take a walk while it is today you we go the mile tomorrow
If you take notice to the little things here and there about you
If that is done you are bit getting at it you and life

Tomorrow Never Dies

CHALLENGE YOUR CHALLENGES

Do what you can
With what you have
Where you are

Does the word challenge
Give you a queasy feeling
In the pit of your stomach
Does the adrenalin start to flow
Do combined emotions of fear
And uncertainty start to pulse through your veins

Challenges comes in all shapes and sizes
Your age, your nationality, where you live
Whether you’re married or single
Whether you’re the most admired or least admired
None of these matter challenges are part of life

Maybe your life has been one challenges after another
For as long as you can remember
Or you could be one of the fortunate few
For whom life seems to roll along with hardly a bump in the road
But then out of nowhere disaster hits and your world crumbles

You loose your job and don’t know
How you are going to pay your rent or mortgage
You may have lost a loved one
Faced illness, gone through divorce
Cared for elderly parents or dealt with rebellious children

Perhaps you feel overwhelmed and pulled
In so many directions that your relationships
Health and work are suffering big time
Maybe you face increasing pressure
To perform on the job company budget and goals

How do we respond to the challenges in our lives
Many times our first instinct is to run away
Wait remember …Just because challenges come
They don’t have to overcome

No one succeeds in the face of difficulties
By lying down and giving up 

We’ve got to respond to challenges 

With our strongest efforts

Government

WHO ARE YOU?

This is the question one person
Has been asked one time or the other
What’s your pedigree they say
Fame is not for few
They differentiate the people
Who drink tea to people who soak garri

You can’t seat there they say
It is well deserved because is reserved
And name has been carved
Is for celebrity not for nonentity
Who’s got no ability or financial stability
Who cannot afford utility so bounce you liability

Who are you they say
When it time for admission
They say who are you
I say sir that question is unnecessary
I hit the examination I deserve this institution

Who are you
Do you know the chancellor?
Are you friends with the governor?
Do you dine with the senator?
Is your father the administrator?
Are you related with the chancellor?
Tell me do you no the monitor
Do you have enough money tell me

Who are you?
Do I have to be a jagaban to listen to a band
Do I have to wear Versace to eat suace
Do I have to wear gold trinket to take picture on red carpet
Do I have to be guided by corps to visit Transcop
Do I have to have iphone to seat in the front roll
Why can’t you see me for me

While does my world be determine
By the money in account or the casher in my account
Or the words in my mouth 

Or the selfies on Facebook which most are not real
The followers on twitter don’t make me any better

They say go exercise franchise go cast your vote
On getting there I find out the vote 

Has already been decided was that me
When I laugh they said while e dey laugh
When I take they say whose taken

When I write 

They say who is written
They don’t want to know 

What I have to say
All what they just want to know 

Sha hustle don pay

Whether e take tea or I take pab
At the end of the day na the same hot water
Even sure bet is not so sure after all
One commits a crime and is name ring a bell
And they say bail him

Another commits a crime but
He is not in the hall of fame they jail him
Cell, hell criminal you are curse son of hate
That man must pay for this
Or the criminal is the one 

Without money in the high places

When I speak at a turn
They say who the hell do you think you are
Well I’ll tell who the heaven think I am
Am the voice of the one 

Crying in our nation hosanna
Am the beginning of a new era

The end of injustice and the beginning of power
A skyscraper of peace am a trail blazer of unity
Am young, am vibrant am strong am intelligent
Am a million microchips definitely for peace
Have got the energy you lack and courage back to back
Am a story to be told and a wonder to behold

Am more than conqueror 

Greater than the governance
Am from the deity of divinity 

From the tribe of lines
No chains and boundaries
Am a time bomb waiting to explode

Am history waiting to happen
Am like a current of an ocean 

You cannot stop my flow
One day surely we go blow
The street na by grace

Am the correction of your past mistakes
Am the activation of your future estate
Am the product of grace have got the length of days
Am the hope of this generation
Am the celebrity you see on television

Am a Christian 

Am a believer
Am a bold and daring Nigerian youth

MADU

Like a rat it come to one
Eat ones foot but you cannot know
As two tasks is carried out
As the rat is eating your foot
There is a cold breeze that follows

So unpredictable
With venom like a snake in the heart
Ready to devour with the poison from the tongue
That comes out from the smile behind the scene
A foe in disguise

That a being so nice and found to be and talk with
Will someday turns out to be
A foe with the nicest deadly act
As each day breaks the one nice being
Has become like a book the left the shelf

But such is life
As human we are all bound to change
Is either you are gone with the wind
Or ravage by the storm of betrayal
Everything is lost like the name written in the sand

The one once praised today
We become like a trash tomorrow
Just as an intangible un-estimable assets
The heart of human are like a course 

You cannot graduate from
That is madu for you

So when you meet with a stranger today
Don’t rush in labeling that said stranger
All such of wonderful, awesome and loving names
Because human is like a book that has a sweet opening
But no one knows what lays ahead the pages ahead

So get your guards ready
Be on your guard always
Don’t trust easily to give it out such a trust cheaply
Be realistic go with your instinct and sense
Madu are so beautiful in nature and character

I pray we all survive the moment
When the perfect stranger turns

Out to be foe ravaging us
You don’t know who got your back or 

Who wants you out of the game
Life is a jungle you got to keep your head up high
Madu…

PRAISE YOU IN THE STORM

Although the fig tree shall not blossom
Neither shall fruit be in the vines
The labour of the olive shall fail
And the fields shall yield no meat
The flock shall be cut off from the fold
And there shall be no herd in the stalls

Yet I will rejoice in the Lord
I will joy in the God of my salvation
With all that is in us all
Let’s come boldly with faith in our heart
Even in the midst of the storm
Let our praise be ascend to You Lord

Even when the night seems so cold
And the troubles and cares of this life
Comes hitting at our door step
Strip down of all our courage
Beaten and bartered by the storms of life

Irrespective of what happens
Let our praise never cease
To rise up and descend up high
Like a sweet smelling savour
Up high to our creator up high in the sky

Praise you in the storm
When I cannot see tomorrow
When it seems too far to reach
Too hot to hold but my anchors hold
Praise in the storm

Many of us have journeyed
Through the long dark night
Out on the open sea
By faith alone sight unknown
And yet His eyes watches you

The anchor holds
Though the ship is scattered
The anchor holds though storms may stumble
And you are falling on your kneels
As you face the raging seas but the anchor holds inspite of the storm

BLOGGING FOR 11 YEARS

To birth dream you got to work
To birth the ideal you must be awake
To carry through with the vision you must be at it
To be where others are you have to be in the known
To remain relevant you be in the known not in the unknown

Is been unprecedented 11 years
Of constant dedication dishing out
Of great content across board
With head turning articles though even toes are thread upon
Going head long against gossip and false news

It been superior 11 years
Of the ink never runs dry for a day
As grace flows and gift glows at crescendo levels
Inspite of the fair and unfair criticism from every billet
In the eyes of the space where I exist in

It been 11 years of God’s enrich wisdom
Been gifted with the power of the pen
With well in-depth flows of inspirations
From past experience relevant in my environment
Seasons come and go but God has never left me for a second

Blogging for 11 years for me
There has been ups and down on this journey
Have heard to stay awake all night
Month after months and year after years
Researching, reading, redesigning and writing

Researching to be in the known always
To keep up to task with what goes on around me
In my field of endavour to be relevant
To read to stay ahead of the market where I find myself
Redesigning my strategy to be different from the ones I melt on ground

With just one goal
To write the wrong in history
To captivate minds of my readers and visitors to my blogs
With motivating and captivating write up
To inspire2motivate in creating friendly reading culture

Looking back today to 13th February, 2009 when it all started, I thank You Lord.

WHAT IT TAKES TO FINISH STRONG?

What does it mean to finish strong?
It means that you will come to the end
Of your life with a strong and close
Relationship to Christ
Finishing strong

It means that unless God
Has taken your wife ahead of you
You will be married to the same woman
That you are today
What it takes to finish strong

It means that you are a man
Who is in the Scripture and living the Scripture
It means that you are a man
Who has fought some battles for kingdom
And has the scars to prove it

To finish strong means
That you are leaving your children
And grandchildren the priceless
Heritage of a godly life
To do that take vision

Especially if you’re in your twenties or thirties
Few men have the vision at that age
To look forty years into the future and
Think about how they want to finish
What it takes to finish strong

It takes finish to do it
When you’re in your forties and fifties
For that’s when so many guys get sloppy spiritually
And put it all on cruise control
Oh they’ll finish all right but they won’t finish strong

It takes vision in your sixties and seventies
To realize that those little grandchildren
Are the leaders of a future generation
And it takes vision to spend time with them
Instead of cursing the country six month out of the year

A YOUNG MAN CHALLENGE

A young man who was having a significant
Ministry in a small English village many years ago
People were coming from miles around
To hear him teach the Scriptures
In his midtwenties he had a voracious appetite

For not only teaching the scriptures
But knowing them as well
He was making an impact in the village
And he surrounding area
Until the charges were made

A young woman came forward and claimed
That he had tried to force himself upon her sexually
The world spread like wildfire across the countryside
He was finished the sentiments of the people
Were with the young girl

His reputation was in shambles
And it was all a lie it simply never happened
The young man struggled deeply with the betrayal
Of the young man whom he had legitimately tried to help
But she had turned on him and was in the process
Of ruining his ministry for life

He thought he would never recover
How could he ever minister again
Anywhere with such charges against him
Bitterness just about overwhelmed him
The betrayal was too much

He couldn’t bear it and he couldn’t undo it
But with God’s help he refused to allow that bitterness
To take root in his heart
God enabled him to conquer the bitterness
Just as Joseph had conquered it

The falsely accused young man
Thought that he would never again be used by God
But there are millions of people
Who can vouch for the fact that Oswald Chambers
Was greatly used of God before it was all over

Oswald Chambers struggled
With betrayal and bitterness and finished strong
Joseph struggled with betrayal and bitterness
But he finished strong a young man challenge
Finishing strong

Perhaps you are struggling with betrayal and bitterness
You’re currently in good company, aren’t you?
For you have the same God that they trusted in
And if you will let Him
He will give you the same perspective
That he gave to both of them
You too will finish strong

Take the lance of the Word of God
And drive through it the very heart
Of that bitterness pin that thing to the ground
And get on with the race
The sooner you get on with it
The sooner you will discover
The blessings that God has for you

Trust me…
They are beyond anything you could ever
Ask, dream or imagine
And when you finally run into them
They’ll take your breath away…just ask Joseph
