Release me

Release me, an innocent.

Release me, am justified.

Release me, an pure.

Release me, am free.

Release me, cos' I want to go home and dance for my people 

How much longer do you intend to hold peace from leaving?

Do not wish this long waited release. 

I can hear peace calling from that other side. 

That is it!

Legitimate

You are a legitimate child, 

You where born to be legitimate,

Whose bloodline of a legitimate descendant runs in your veins,

Who them told you were not? 

Leaving the requite of your ancestors on your footage in the sands of time stirs us in the face.

I look to you for answers legitimate,

Let me not be forgotten.

Sometime in April (My Fallen Heroes)

What are you still doing? 

They have asked all corp members to take solace at the nearby police station, Elliot warned, a corp-member serving his fathers land at giade local government area of bauchi state.

Never knew those would be his last words and last seen of him. 

They (Hamajiri), stoned and destroyed the station and finally set fire to ending our lives.

I saw men dropped down in tears, suddenly Tomisin screamed, we cannot die here!

Seun, Tomisin, Obinna, Elliot, Anslem, Ikechukwu, where are you?

Our greatest heroes has fallen and forgotten on that Black Monday.😭

Sleep on! 

Our leaders has failed you😭

Memories of Mama

Memories of Mama,

Makes the heart skip.

Memories of mama,

Makes the heart pounds.

Memories of mama,

You never know how important mama is until you lose her.

How I wish you are here to see me become that strong, vibrant, energetic, kneeling woman you had always wanted.

I love you mama.

Your memories will never depart in a hurry.

Afresh

Starting afresh, is it a thing to behold?

Starting afresh, is it a thing to aspire for?

Starting afresh, is it a thing to make work?

If only we have the zeal to make it afresh, the world could have been a better place.

Twist

Achieve;

Become;

Renew;

Change. 

Life has it that, twist amiss those that bends a little turn over.

Never remain a rigid.

Be twisted!

Trust

Trust is what you see,

Trust is what you gain,

Trust is what you become, 

Trust is what you achieve.

Trust is.

My Black Skin

Vàndàsà says a Portuguese lad meaning (it didn't stained my skin) as she stepped into a gloceries shop.

What an African black Skin;

You were seen as an Ape,

Evolved into a human form, 

Your skin is still date a cause to mother Earth.

My Black Skin, you were identified as dark skin, thick lip and brood nose.

What an African Black Skin you have become, shinning, glittering, beautiful, elegant black Skin you will forever be on generations after. 

My Black Skin...

THE CRY

The Cry of the Innocence

Never could be 

Never should be

Free your coast and flare you innocent that thinks freedom.

Cos' freedom is come, freedom at last.

I Believe

I Believe

That only time would tell

I Believe

That the next level is now

I Believe

That miracle is what you project each day

I Believe

That sadness and joy has a thin line away from each other 

I Believe

That faith only takes the hands of those that believe

I Believe...

From Beginning to end

Is it really possible?
