 THE BREAKING POINT

Sometimes shits happen 

While other times events happens 

Most times we got tired 

Like elastic that worns out

And the breaking point looms


We get so lost in thought 

Tried all the available options

From plan A to B then to list Z

And nothing seems working 

The breaking point 


It breaks us down 

Shatter our world 

We lose it and gave up

Life laughs at us as it has finally get us

Shambled and broken within


We watch our life

As we march on to finishing it all

No one seems to bother we're just left all alone

And deep inside is nothing but loneliness

The breaking point 


Where there is no strength left again

To fight life's battle so to reach conquest 

But all energy are gone and we are at two opinions

To go to stay to move to remain stagnant

The breaking point 


So no matter what 

Dont get broken down by life's challenges 

It we be alright 

It we end in greater praise

The breaking point.

 IN SEARCH OF A VESSEL

Not a puff up vessel

Not a religious drunkenness kind of

Not church human run administration

Not a chain attached to human sensitive

But a vessel washed and purchase by  the blood


Not an ego centric 

Not a self centred

Not demons chaser kind of

Not a void of the power living in yesterday

But of the one who has the real thing


Not so much activities kind off

Always busy never have time for refill

All gone chasing this event

Organising that program 

From one place to another 


And never having time for a personal retreat 

Alone with God and seeking His face

Not a vessel sold out to the ways and things 

Of the world where such a one exist

But a vessel of God living in such a one


Burn of the Word and not the world

Control by His spirit not the spirit of the world

Living on the bread of life not

Bread meant for the body 

Vessel whose eat the Word and live by the Word


Vessel kept reservedly 

For Hi purpose to carry out Kingdom services 

In bring many sons and daughters to glory

Paving he way for those in the darkness

A light unto the world a beacon of hope

ATUPA OLA

That may we never come 
To that point in our life
We turn slaves to our age mate
And we lost all that makes us human
Atupa Ola

That we move from a state of despondence
To that height so high far above mediocrity
That our lights burn so bright in the hours 
Of dark gloomy days as our lamp keep burning 
Atupa Ola

That the light the burns from our lamp
Make headways for us as each step is taken
That we never come to disgrace and shame 
That we never lack what makes life good in living
Atupa Ola

That the evil ones in the world 
Won't take out the lamp and place it
Under bushel but placed so high
For everyone to see God's glory in us
Atupa Ola 

That you shall go from glory to glory
I fulfillment of your destiny 
Living out your purpose of existence 
That the oil in your lamp never runs dry
Atupa Ola

UNASHAMED

I stand redeemed 
Before my Maker 
In awe of His ever-presence
He's so pure glistering in white 
Before I stand unashamed 
The law points to what have done 

As justice demands my life 
Weighed in the balance 
As I was found wanting 
Of the sin I committed 
Grace was there 

So much and so free
Pardon was multiplied to me
There my soul found liberty
At Calvary
That's why today 

I stand so sure I stand 
Unshamed before His presence
As His presence makes the difference
Nothing held me captive 
As accusers are far gone from me

Because His grace covers my mistakes
Washed from my crimson state 
I can stand redeemed forever 

Unshamed 
Before God 
Before false accusers
Before the enemy of my soul
Before the sin that held me down
Am saved, redeemed and purchased

That I can boldly 
Wholeheartedly said
Am redeem because 
Am not weighed down by sin's power 
Because am unashamed.

TO MY MUM


Happy Mothering Sunday
For you mum thanks for being you
Thanks for shouldering
The greatest responsibility
Of being called a mother

Of truth you are priceless
A diamond and star
Whose light shines forth
Into a distance land
Showing the road map to both

The ones you know and stranger
You stood when no one stands,
You defile all odds to stand
When things aren't better.

From the depth of my heart
I say God bless you and
Keep you stronger in good health
To live much longer to reap
The rewards of the labor of love
In Jesus name amen.

To the world's best mum
To my mum the best girlfriend in the world ...
Happy Mothering Sunday.

FOR MOTHERS AT MOTHER'S DAY

The hands that rocks life

From infancy to criddle

Then to adulthood 

She stands and was there all along 

Life's journey 


The builder home 

The moulder of life

The one who go the distance 

In making sure that everything is fine

Love unreserveably without no condition 


Mother's love doesn't cost a thing

It super cedes time and length

The unbeatable act of caring and concern 

A mother a pure gold that can't be replaceable 

So irreplaceable she of a truth


Mothers are the greatest gift to mankind

They nurture and tends generation

As their marks aren't leaving the footprint

Of time and seasons long while they've gone

A mother legacy lives on forever 


She worth been celebrating 

Not just for the moment 

Nor for today but at everyday 

Mother for you at mother's day

You are really a jewel of inestimable price.

FOR THAT SINGLE MUM ON MOTHER'S DAY

Whose worth called mummy
Who works her hand to the bone
To provide for her children
Who withstand the hate speech
Of society throws at her

All in the name of chosen
The path of peace and happiness
To single-handed raise her kids
By all means standing her ground
To that single mum at mother's day

Whose goal is to stand out
Never cutting corners
To make sure her kids stand out
Her philosophy can no mortal man ward off
Happy mothers day to that woman

Who single-handed rise
Great boys and girls
Of good character and manners
In becoming pathfinders in life
To that single mum on mother's day

AND SO IT BEGINS

Be on alert there is a new sheriff in town
The music has just started playing
With every note so loud and alluring
E bi like say they want to act another movie again
Oh just be on your guide 

And so it begins
The wind is blowing
The tides are so tight
The current is so high and blasting each touch
The sounds travel like a wildfire so far
And so it begins

The alluring gifts on the rampage 
As posters are spreading their tentacles
Net spread across a ditch 
A hook at the end of the worm 
And so it begins
 
Be receptive in your sense
So your sense won't be played 
Just as a poet played on words
Shine your eyes before you stretch 
Your hands and sale off your future 

Because of the want at hand
Is better to stand up for the right
And act right then saying a resounding firm NO
By saying YES to right and justice 
Void of corruption and enslavement
 
Get PVC because the war 
Has just begun we must arise
All hands must be on deck 
As we prepare for the 2023 presidential election
And so it begins

Remember 
Is thumb not fist 
In all we do let's make peace our watchword
As violence is never the way to achieve a thing
Never be an instrument of violence 

Be wise
Vote wise
Stand firm never soil your integrity 
Because the music is on the movie has begun
And so it begins.

HOW CAN THE CHURCH FIX NIGERIA?


We've prayed for so  long
Fasted for so long 
Wait and waited on God for so long
We shout to the Lord so loud 
Will chant His praise for so long

Yet we're still were we are
Same spot same place and same result 
Time after time we got tired 
Withered like a dried leaf 
Fallen off the branch of the big tree

We've lost hope and fake out
As the church begins to lose its essence 
All are tired of rye state of the nation 
No one seems to bother to go 
And bring the nation back to her former state

We've called a national prayer meeting 
Hosted crusade in so many big cities 
Alas the revivalist took the revival with him
As he was going back to where he came from 
Long afterwards the crusade has ended

For the church to fix Nigeria 
We must be sure to fix the church first 
And the isn't the building which are the bricks 
No matter how beautiful the building is
If the church doesn't have impact 

In the society where she exist 
She lost it essence of existence 
The church needs to fix its members first
If she we fix the nation Nigeria 
The fixing has to start within first

Enough of wishy washing kind of miracle 
What we need is the miracle of the mind
To reed the pollution of the mind 
As everything starts from the mind 
How can the church fix Nigeria 

Each member must hold each other accountable 
As nation building isn't left to one person alone 
Is a collective responsibility 
If we must fix this all hands must be at work.

THE STATE OF THE NATION: AJAGBANDI



Located in the heart 
Of the commercial center of Lagos Nigeria
A city of slums and bad roads
With poor road network interchange 
A forgotten city by those who rules

And it commercial yellow buses
That ply the roads of this city 
Called Ajahgbandi what an eye sour
That you we question the officials 
That issues road worthiness paper to this buses
Questions like

Did they really check through
Well enough inside out of this yellow buses 
Of what criteria they did use it approve 
It's road worthiness 
As most of this cars got a crack windscreen 

An horrible sound due to be exhaust pipe
It body as of a car run over by a trailer 
As the panel beater has exhume its last strength 
On these yellow commercial buses 
And the state of its road lingers 

With a worst state of road network
Not fit for one to call this a road 
Just a little down fall it worsen everything
The state of the nation 
The poor state of Ajahgbandi road

Wait this community has an local government chairman 
Do they have community development association
And is it included in the budget of the nation.

CALLING OUT FOR THAT ONE WOMAN (MAN)



The problems of this nation
Is not the one in the government alone
But also lies within the hands of its citizens
From the one on the street out there
To the one seated within the confines

Of a cold chilled office
With so many aids and assistance
To the one who seat out there
In the chill cold weather of the day
To scorgeness of the days sun frying akara

Is the call for one and all
To that one who is ready
To bring good governance
To front burner of both
The privilege one and less privilege one

Who is ready to paint
The future for the future
We need one woman(man) who is not afraid
To lead us again to the promise land
Just like Moses did we need such a woman(man

See the land that God gave us
A gift to us how did we turn our
Blessings into a curse
Of a truth we've lost our voice
Among nations of the world

We must save the land
That God has gave us
Save her from destruction
Everyone who hears this call
Must give an earnest urgent yield to the call

Am calling out on that one man(woman)
Who is ready to fight
Fight for what's right
Who is ready and capable to lead us
Who is not afraid to say Yes

That's the man(woman) we need
In this hour when our nation
Is experiencing a blackout of leaders with ideas
That one man(woman) can start with you and I
Am calling out on one of us in us all
Yes you can be that one woman(man).

THE BREAKING POINT



Sometimes shits happen
While other times events happens
Most times we got tired
Like elastic that warns out
And the breaking point looms

We get so lost in thought
Tried all the available options
From plan A to B then to list Z
And nothing seems working
The breaking point

It breaks us down
Shatter our world
We lose it and gave up
Life laughs at us as it has finally get us
Shambled and broken within

We watch our life
As we march on to finishing it all
No one seems to bother we're just left all alone
And deep inside is nothing but loneliness
The breaking point

Where there is no strength left again
To fight life's battle so to reach conquest
But all energy are gone and we are at two opinions
To go to stay to move to remain stagnant
The breaking point

So no matter what
Don't get broken down by life's challenges
It we be alright
It we end in greater praise
The breaking point.

I PRAY DEATH MEETS YOU WELL

We don't know when nor how
Neither where it we find us
At noon, night or twilight
When he visits be sure you're ready
I pray death meets you well

That you would have been able
To live love and lend so much
To the course of God and humanity
That you gave your all and did your best
By bringing someone some happiness

That when death visits
They we remember that of a truth
You live and left a footprints on sands of time
Leaving memory that can never be erase
Either by time as the tune of your symphony

Continues to strike a chord
With a flexible fingering
Gracious flowing across the heart of many
I pray death meets you well and you finish well
You yes you death we meet you well.
#IWasHere #death #lastinglegacy #you

Longing for your touch as we're in your midst
We've been wailing in praise
As every where erupt with great chant
Of your greatness

Because we want to be where You are
To stand and witness Your live presence
Because we've waiting
Kaabo

Come Lord touch everyone
Purge every heart
Cleanse every heart
Transform every life
Mend every broken heart and life
Kaabo ati reti ere.

THE FOOTPRINT THAT OUTLIVE THE FOOT

Each day as we live

We must make sure 

We give our best and our all

To humanity in all ways we can

At all times we can


That we must do everything

That we can to be someone's happiness 

In the world where there is so much toxicity 

By striking a chord in someone's heart

A footprint that outlive the foot 


We must see that no matter 

How small our little deeds

Of help, love and kindness

Must go a long way in creating 

A bigger and better space for each one 

To feel love and have that sense of living 


By going the extra mile 

In creating an awesome loving environment

Worth living and that when you die

Your legacy of good works we vibrate 

And live on the sands of time 


You are here now 

You have the moment now

You own the space because 

One day it we be you were here 

Don't ask what do I have to give 

But the little you give we go along way


And when you take bow 

Off from this mother earth

Of what we you be remembered for

Fine you here...I was here 

But what do you live for? 


Do you live for love or hate

Are you living or merely existing 

I was here and you are here 

To you...to me is up to us

To make the world a better place.
