Blessing in the Storm

Is always darkest before the dawn

The sun can never outlive the storm

Before rain comes a fierce storm with winds

A trail comes before testimony like conquest before victory

Blessing in the storm

The storm is period of time in one’s life

Where one face challenges that threatens

Ones existence undermining the sole aim of it

But will choose how we go through it

Is either it breaks us or we grow through the storm

For every storms that blew

It blew with so much to tear us apart

Breaking us asunder threaten our existence

With groaning and pain in the heart

Blessing in the storm

Like good things don’t come so easy

It flows in succession from shore to shore

Residue of the sea revenging the ship on the ocean of life

But no matter the storm you face wait because there is

Blessing in the storm

Tomorrow begins with you

And with you alone you can face the storm

Go through the storm and grow out of the storm

Blessing comes to those who with for it

No matter what happens stand go through the storm

There is blessing in every storms of life will face

With time the storm will come and go

And there will be new feelings

The birds will come again to sing

The storms will pass a new day will come

And you will smile again seen the blessing in the storm

Night Time

There comes a moment when darkness take charge

And it seems the night is a long way to come

Sky becomes blue and grey as the weary night fades

Every sunbeam beams with a smile wearing a smile

A smile of hope and assurance…Night Time

Night time can be  at dawn, noon and even times

When life’s begins to fades out of sight from the view

And legs are afraid to carry the bodies

Sight becomes dim to see afar

From where you stood…Night Time

But in the midst of the night time

The dawn is of assurance with assuring thought

That life will be fine even in the night time

Tomorrow is so sure and certain

That moment when everything begins to click

The moment life begins to sound interest to live

Everything you hope for changes

From the time you live out to that moment you cease to exist

When all will be said and done

Night time

When your purples eyes bleed with tears

The soft heart in shatters bleeds red

And the moment just goes on and on like that

You remember the dreams been shattered

And empty promises wasted to north

Redication, Reaffirmation, Reconciliation

There comes a moment in life

As will all travels through this path

Some seemly sweet event takes place

That shape our existence and it deters

How we go through life

Will got to that point when we need

To meet a dedication leading to redicatoon

To start afresh in facing the main focal point

Of everything will live for to rededicate

Readjusting to meet the needed for the race

Will rededicate to reaffirm that will believe

Knowing fully it will come to pass

Because as a man thinketh so he is

You think small, you become small

Speak forth that you want to see in your life

You redidcate to reaffirm then you meet with

Reconciliation to revisit that which you were born

To be that person you were created for

This is the moment you start to live out

The dream you were cut out for

Naked Truth…Naked Lie

Don’t sell to me what you are not

Is better to be late then to arrive very late

Life spurns at us and makes us forget ourselves

While long we have live a life if lie

Leading to our identity to be lost on the table of lies

Is better to be equipped with the truth

Naked truth not forming in clothes not able to afford

Turn around and see the true reflection of who you are

And you will you’re the one who have stabbed yourself several time

Naked truth is better to be told then the naked lie

You fake a life, you fake a smile

You fake an identity online and offline

You smile fake your shadow is deception of it all

You long forgotten who the true reflection of you

Naked Truth…Naked Lie

You lost it all will don’t know how to handle you

Because all your personality is nothing be make believe

Your face value has been reduce to less to nothing

You forsake the real identity living a life of photocopy

Naked Truth…Naked Lie

Truth is hard in the face of lie

When truth have a face off with lie

Lie cannot contend with truth

Irresepctive of the situation

Naked truth is better then naked lie

A lies is like a naked fire that burns within

When The Table Turned

Be careful the way you threat your fellow men

Be so kin to how you talk to them

Take caution your character in open and in secret

Body languages goes far into one then words

When the table turned

You looked down on him because he is no

You mock him and write him off and down

You bring forth your armory of words destruction

You use your tongue and kill him suck life out of him

When the table turned

I do believe everyone has a said appointed time

The creator has a time well planned for everyone

Is rough today seems as if no hope

And that doesn’t mean it will be that way all through life time

Before judge your fellow remember where you coming from

You are once like that void of direction

Hardly you can fend for yourself

And you looked down on this fellow now

While long you’ve forgotten where you are coming how you started

Because soon and soon the table will turn

And when it does what eyes

What feets will you use to stand up

And look into the eyes of the one

You have written down and slice kill with your tongue

When the table turned

Remember the world is not ending today

There is still hope for tomorrow

Who knows what will happen in the next seconds

And when that happens the table has turned

This fellow you talked down, mocked write off being becomes someone

OSUPA

I pray you shall never come to shame in life

That as you go through life you shall flourish

From dusk to the rising of the sun

You shall know No suffering

At what cost you shall rise to greatness

The moon of your life shall beam

Bringing beauty to your life

Just as the moon that add beatification to the dark of night

You shall stand till night your candle will be blown by the wind

Just make sure you work the walk

Beaming the light always with honest and dedication

Never deferring for an hour in pursuit of reaching your dream

Attaining greatness at all cost

Osupa

Nothing will take away the light in you

Your night shall be greater, brighter then before

Bringing out the best in yourself

You must work to let this little light of yours to shine

TO WHO ARE WILL GOING TO TELL

Is it our founding fathers

Is it to the labours of our hero past

Is it to our fallen hero’s who soil their blood

And wet the land with their blood

To who are will going to tell

That our land is at edge of losing it

That thing is not that working here

Those investors are afraid to come and invest

That our future are been turned against the land that birthed them

Loosing the essence of been born

Because society has eaten the conscience off

Pricking what was left on them to be human

Feeding with their soul with malnourishment

Drunk with the quest of materialism by all means

To who are will going to tell

Onise Iyanu

The Lord of heavens owns the universe

The Lord above everything from day one

He has been and always forever be

He rules in the affairs of men

From generation to generation each one has come in contact with Him

At one point in their life time

Today is the best day to talk about His greatness

Is it from dawn to the dusk of each day

His been right from the foundation of the world

Little wonder is called the God of awesome wonder

The one who speaks and it come to pass

The one who holds the world in His hands

The one who forsook His glory up above to bring us redemption story

The one who makes promises and keeps to it

Onishe iyanu

Have you wonder how the world came in existence

He made it possible through the power of the spoken word

He hasn’t lost any battle in life time

Even when He engage the seemly powerful creature you dread of

Is no one but the greatest of all Onishe Iyanu

Even in the midst of recession

Even in the most seemly impossible events

Even when situation doesn’t fit into our schedule

Even when the long dark nights ensue

And it seems the dawn wont suffice yet Onishe Iyanu shows up

AFRICA

MUSTAPHA

Africa…Africa

A land so full of power

That stands string like a tower

You are strong and black

There is nothing you lack

Land and field so green

It’s past of what is seen

Rich in cultures, customs and soil

There’s no other so lucky like her

Your savannah and wild life

Have never been seen in any other part of the world

Though you were once despised

You have conquered them all

Force into cultures you didn’t know

You became victorious on your own

They came to your land

To steal your precious black gold

I am happy to be black so proud of it

Africa lives inside me its blood flows in my vain

TODAY

MUSTAPHA

Don’t allow today pass on you

Without gaining same thing or achieve something

Don’t allow friends to make you

Forget what you do today

Because today will never come twice

Always make sure you gain something

And don’t allow friend to distract your today

Make sure you are always being good in what you are doing

Don’t allow friends to influence you of your achievement

And make sure you determine within yourself

And don’t allow any how friends to make you lose sight

Of your today as against tomorrow

Today is gone what have you done?

And get this that today with for nobody

Likewise time wait for nobody

All learn how to make use of your today

And don’t allow today pass through you

Because you did not know what will happen to your tomorrow

So I want to advise you to make the best of your today
