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
