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

THE WORLD TODAY

ADEKANBI LYDIA

Life and people promises

As begin to fades away they come

Many people has been dead

Today without their promises completed

As their promises has fade away

They wont be able to go back

To the past from where they come

As time goes on many people can’t fulfilled their promises

While still on earth

Their promises has fade away

Because he’s dead

He can be able or not able to fulfill is promises

To his family or relatives without being known

As days runs into month

Years goes on unnoticed

This promises fades away due to illnesses leading to death

Everyone who has a promises to fulfill

He/she to fulfill such promises when it is now

As I was saying hmmmm life

Time waits for no one the days fade away

Some people waited too long so long to fulfilled their promises

But they can’t any way as life flows on some high

I challenge you to make the best of now when it is now

Now to you reading this my advice is this

Time waits for no one

In the Bible it says those that are wise

Can teach those that are not wise
