KING OF KINGS

He has been so good to me
He is the lover of my soul
Everything about me He can see
My trail and temptation He knows

His mercy never runs out
The world marveled at His awesomeness
For Jesus Christ is a mighty Lord
The king of kings and Lord of Lords

For my sake, a selfless sacrifice He made
A King who listens to the cry of his people
When I am weary, He gave me strength not to faint
When I am asleep, He keeps me far away from evil

In His hands, there is love in abundance
For everything I need in life, He is more than able
All that I need is to call on His name so precious
To have the key to blessings unlocked in full

Merry Christmas

HE LOVES YOU



God saves the best for you
You are never the same when He touches you
Believe me when I say that He loves you
The sky cannot run out of clouds

If you want to fly
Your wings cannot break away
With God all things are possible
Undoubtedly this is true

TO FORGET



I learnt to forget
Deaths of falling trees planted in my heart
Cast away and broken into firewood
I watch in tears as it burns completely out

SLIPPED AND FALL





Every time I slipped and fall 
I pull myself up together 
Stumbled upon a world chastened 
Mud on my face, tattered cloth 

 A wall stood at the edge of my faith 
Compromising everything I believed 
The world tries to destroy me 
But could not get the best of me 

The stream of life Reflecting on my awful past 
Enemies mocked me, so does fools 
Thought when I fall
I will be doomed 

It was easy to prove them wrong 
For someone walking with a burning will
Through storm and tempest 
Defeat completely denied 

The devil tried to take my soul away 
A thousand fools surrounded me 
From the east comes a strong wind 
My strength renewed from heaven  

The scars I got from brutal bruises 
Could not hinder the brightness of the stars
I slipped and fall but never give up 
For on God foot I stand

CHANGE



It is not time to make a change 
You have to be sure you are ready 
Life is still young, take it easy 
It is good to have a dream 
If it is not meant to consume you 
Look how ugly the world has become 
She has long lost her virginity 
No one blames you, It wasn’t your fault 

There is a lot you have to go through 
I am sorry, wish I could explain all this to you 
To have a life worth remembering 
Look out for someone you truly love 
Find yourself a girl, maybe get married 
This will give you something to look back on 
In such a shattered world 
As long the heart is not broken


Once I got old, life got the best of me
I found out, I have got no place else to go
The things thought I have, are not mine
You may have all your heart desire 
Yet deep inside, something is still missing
Someday we are all going to go away 
Sit down and think life through 
Don't you dare ignore this little things

I WILL NOT FORGET

Thank you all for the warm birthday 
Wishes and prayers




I looked down the years
Through trials and difficulties
The moments I fell ill
How miraculously I got healed

On this sacred journey of life
Friends and love ones
Have come and gone
I have met reality first hand

Thank you for giving me the privilege
To share my world with someone unique as you
If you search my whole heart
You will find out I am nothing without you

Thank you for everything
God used you to nurture me
The best way I could ever be
For this I will never say goodbye

Today is a special day
Groomed with beautiful memories
You are a blessing which filled my soul
I could not stop to smile

SELF RIGHTEOUS




I am not talking about self righteousness 
Of living a false life 
This is not about your achievements 
The model of car you drive 

 It got nothing to do with your pride 
Whether it is sold or safely stashed 
In your eyes, how can I see the light? 
If you are always hiding in the dark 

 All I want is someone there for me 
Whom got no grudges to hold back 
But the passage of friendship see 
Of feelings that does not lack 

If you know me well 
Everything about me you can tell 
Not a friend with a false dream 
But someone that is open and real

NUMBER ONE



When I was a teenager
I used to get all dressed up
Put on the best of cloths
When me and girl are hanging out

Wanted everything to perfect
I only got one golden moment
I knew if I look good
No one else would stand a chance

Back then love was not stereotyped 
A guy needs to be smart
If he wants a attract the right girl
Conscious of the things she loves

Just so that he can impressed her 
He writes a romantic love note
A token of gift to show he appreciates her
He would not take her love for granted

But nowadays, love has lost her essence
So much frustrated relationships 
Every where I turned, I see broken homes
It is frustrating that no one seem to care

When a man appreciates and love a woman
Winter never comes between his feelings
True love can withstand any weather 
As long the heart and mind is one

Can you truly look your girl in the eyes?
With not a charming but sincere smile
Can you say girl, I will always be by your side
You are my number one

HAVE YOU EVER?




Have you ever fell in love? 
So deep with someone 
Every time you think about him 
Makes you smile 

When he is around 
You can't hold back the feeling 
Of dying in his charming arms 
And not wake up forever 

Have you ever felt helplessly in love?
Every time you close your eyes 
You see the picture of that one you truly love 
Hanging on the walls in your heart

Love, they say is indispensable 
It can withstand a thousand fall 
For you I will would die a million deaths 
If that is how long it takes to prove I care

For I love you with every breath of my life 
And can not denie how perfect you made my world
Like a star you add beauty into my heart
Without you, I will be miserable all through my life

A LETTER TO CYNTHIA




Dear Cynthia, Pardon me to dip my pen into a ink
And pour out my feelings in black and white
The Lurking feelings I have been holding back
For years I have been lonely and sad

Walking around with an unsettled mind
I could not fight my emotions right in front of you
Dying in abject silence, yet nothing I could do
When a man is in love, he becomes broken and weak

To the alluring qualities that sums a woman's heart
Her looks, her charming smile and sense of humor
They are too inviting to look away from, this has no cure
For me girl, can you keep a secret?

I love you more than a child possibly loves chocolate
Thoughts of you have shattered my heart
They are endlessly running free inside
I sat under the moonlight

Imaging what you see
When you look up the sky past the tree
I could see a picture of you and me
Strolling down the ridges in my dream

Wherever this letter may find you
Know that someone out there cares about you
And is dying of a symptom un-diagnosed
For a reason of genuine love withhold

I AM COMING HOME



The distance between us seems unending 
Every time I want to be close to you 
When ever I try to reach out to you
The sky is getting further away my rear view 

Am I still in love with you? 
This to the heart I regretfully asked 
Without doubt, I love you very much 
Even for a friend I shouldn't have been far away from 

I am tired of drifting beyond the sea 
A sailor shipwrecked and floating in an open sea
The heart will not survive such cruel life very long 
Thoughts of losing you is sinking deep
 
Believe me, I know how awful it gets 
Laying under the cloud in the wake of a lonely night 
All my life is centered around you 
The air I breath, the water I drink, my appetite 

I am sorry for the discomfort I put you through 
Should the feelings build around you collapses 
I would hate the world and everything in it 
Not even the sun will bring back my smile 

You may say I don't understand a women's heart 
Watching tears dripping as the candle burns out 
For what ever reason, please do not hang my call Darling hold on, I am coming home

ALL FOR YOU


Can I sip your wine?
Can I ask for more?
Can I kiss your lips?
Like never before

Can I hold your hands?
Walk you down the hall
Can I show you love?
Like you have never felt before

Can I take you with me ?
Through this world of mine
Hold close when you slip
And never let you fall

I will be there for you
All your needs to care for
Sing to you all the melodies
A young heart would die for

Someone your pains to bear
Buy you a smile for a start
Just so we can play it fair
I will give you a head start

MERCIFUL LORD




Merciful Lord, mighty lord
May thy name be exalted
Through tempest and raging storm
Peace and joy in my heart restored

There is something amazing about You
In Your presence nothing is impossible
Impatiently when I disobeyed thy words
Never turned me down but forgave my unfaithfulness

I am grateful for the hills and fountains
For the flowers, trees and grasses
Thou created me in thy beauty and likeliness
As does in heaven the angels

Sent Your son through much pain and humiliation
For a man's perished soul to find retribution
Today, I can walk confidently through the enemies camp
No harms come before me, You are always by my side

ABSTRACT



In absence of an abstract night
Soberly the mind wander deep into the dark
Thoughts of retribution, pregnant with guilt
Of profound acts not denounced 
Search the stars for time and season
A glimpse of hope from death
The reflection of a soul lost
Tattered and tossed away like a filthy rag
Dragged in the pit over the years
As the sun reluctantly parted ways
With man, unleavened in thoughts and deed

GOOD MORNING ANGEL

Good Morning angel
Its a beautiful day
I hope the dew falls on your dreams
And made your wishes come to stay

Life could be sometimes  frustrating
When things are not going your way
Whether bright, raining or cloudy
Each day comes with a blessing within

Look how graceful the sky is
How charming and calm is the sea
Today, as the sun smiles down at you
Its me saying I care about you

You are special 

LOVE FOUND ME





Love found me the one
Sweeter than all I have
Under the candle light
Is a picture of you in my heart

Time can never come between us
I found unquivered faith in you
You are my dream come true
Nothing compares to you

If out of the sky the stars are gone
I will be content knowing I found love in you 
Life at times is hard, trying to tear us apart 
As long I know I am safe with you

It can never alter my feelings for you
Share my world with you, is all I want to do
Wish I could find away to make the world stay alive
For you and I to dine forever

TEARS





Stop crying, pull yourself together
Tears will only bring more pain
The world may not love you
The world may out-rightly despises you

Trying to pull down the wall of happiness
You do not need someone to tell you 
How really amazing you are
Someone out there truly loves you

Do not walk on the alley of rejection and guilt
You deserved a whole lot better
I thought the world to be inperfect
That is why I keep an open mind

Hold on to your dreams
The world may hate you
But can not stop the heart from flying
A day compromised, is a day conceded to defeat

LOVE




Love is a beautiful feeling
Brighter than crystal or diamond
To fall in the arms of someone charming
Irresistible to a woman’s heart

Love is sweeter than chocolate
Not affected, irrespective of the weather
With you holding hands firmly
Sailing through a thousand sea

Love reminds me of a childhood dreams
Lying in the comfort of a caring mother
Cuddled on the shoulder of an adorable father
Sleeping under the smile of a million stars

Love is treating a woman's precious emotion
Tenderly like a flower that she truly is
Love is everything a man ought to give
Not planting a wall to keep the world away from him

THE COST OF LIVING




One world, one dream, one destiny
Never give up on love, mama told me
A gentle heart, the world will not starve
If only this, man can understand

If man has but one page to fill
It is appropriate he tells his stories
Memories to keep when the light is out
The good, bad and the trying times

Don’t you ever stop the music from playing
It helps ease the burdens in the heart
Broken thoughts from a fragile mind
Resuscitating away from frustration

The world deserves a better man
Cultivated in truth, compassion and love
Worthy by the reader for a reference
At the bottom of a befitting page

WHO AM I?





I am the sun that gave life to the world
The lamp hanging up on the wall
I am the conscience that speaks to your heart
The voice that whispers to your ears

I am the ink that expresses your mind
The blueprint that makes up your dreams
I am the dew that rest upon your morning
The strength you need when in pain

I am the star that makes up your night
The words that project your thoughts
I am the music that calms your nerves
The shadow that walks with you day and night

I am the memories you keep in your head
The time you have in your hands
I am your pride and dignity
The light that shows you a path in the dark

I am your companion when you are down
The love and affection you seek
For you will find me in your smile
I am forever present, I am the Lord

A FRIEND'S WORTH





God made the best out of you
He never stopped loving you
The reason it never ceased to rain
It's because you are born with a unique smile

You are special like the lilies 
With beauty only matched in heaven
Until this very moment in time
I cannot phantom getting used to you

Where ever the winds may take you to
Know that I will always appreciate you
Don't you for a second harbor self-doubt
You are everything a true friend is worth

A PERFECT SONG



I know why it stopped to rain
I understand every bit of your pain
How an emotion twisted
Can leads to an ill-fated end

All I need is one chance
To take away the hates
The tears suppressing you
Making the sky turn away from blue

It is not easy harboring a negative past
It's like the clock ticking anti clockwise
Nothing is working outright
Don't need a soothsayer to tell you that 

Can you let me pull my world close to you?
So you can see the picture in full
Take you back to your best memory
When you used to be happy

All my life, I tried to write a perfect song
But the keys to the note are misconstrued
The moment, I set my eyes on you
I found the inspiration needed, I found love in you

It is all I needed to compose a perfect love song
I cannot wait to play it to you all day long
I hope this brings your smile back
As you listen to the lyrics in the track

IS IT WORTH IT?



Is the life you are living
Really worth remembering?
Day after day, same old dream
Playing lottery with hope to win

The size of the shoes you wear
Does not determine how life will fare
You have got to wear an attitude
Of a man desperately in need of water and food

Life does not count on what you have
She smacks you pretty hard
The moment you are reckless
Steals away your happiness

I never stopped believing in miracles
But in reality, a man is boss
When he takes bold decision collectively
To impact people positively

To determine life, if it is worth living
Depends on what you bring in
At the break of each precedent day
I have made it, can you boldly say

GOODBYE




Every night I kiss you goodbye
You are always in my heart 
I feel safe knowing you have my back 
The feeling is so close 

I only let my guard down 
When you are by my side 
Precious is the love I found in you 
It is only made for two 

I have never felt intimidated 
If I would be good enough for you
Every moment that you smile 
Chase my pains away 

The stars intertwine with the cloud 
The night sparks with tiny beams 
And fell upon my dream 
Overwhelmed my feelings ever since

A PIECE OF MY MIND




I can not compromise the mind
Standing for what is not right
But continue the struggle to attain greatness
A purposeful life for human species

Until I see tears shed no more
The sky filled with happy rain fall
Greener leaves, healthy trees growing tall
Corruption uprooted from her core

Man is born for greatness unto birth
It's high time to reclaim our birthright
Pave a pathway on the cloud
For father and mother to be proud

SCAR





You have visions like every intellectual being
But the world cannot interpret your dream
You do not have to change anything to suit the world
Until the world changes his perception in the mind

You cannot take a walk to places you want to be
Without darkness clouding what people see
It hurts so much wearing a scar not tend
Afraid to come out in the crowd

They judge immediately without getting to know you
In the heart, they have already crucified you
Maimed every hope of happiness found
This is how cruel man is in the world

You are beautiful just the way you are
It does not matter whether or not you wear a scar
The heart got everything you need to live a good life
You have to stay strong and positive to successfully thrive

Look back to every little bit of stars in the sky you can find
Memories that make you smile any time you look back
You can make it, no matter where the heart resides
By looking beyond all bulging doubts

DONT PULL YOUR LOVE




Don't pull your love out on me, baby
If you do, then I think that maybe
I'll just lay me down, cry for a hundred years
Don't pull your love out on me, honey
Take my heart, my soul, my money
But don't leave me here drowning in my tears

You say you're gonna leave, gonna take that big white bird,
Gonna fly right out of here without a single word
But you know you'll break my heart when I watch you close that door
Cause I know I won't see you anymore

Don't pull your love out on me, baby
If you do, then I think that maybe
I'll just lay me down, cry for a hundred years
Don't pull your love out on me, honey
Take my heart, my soul, my money
But don't leave me here drowning in my tears

Haven't I been good to you, what about that brand new ring?
Doesn't that mean love to you, doesn't that mean anything?
If I threw away my pride and I got down on my knees,
Would you make me beg you "pretty please"?

Don't pull your love out on me, baby
If you do, then I think that maybe
I'll just lay me down, cry for a hundred years
Don't pull your love out on me, honey
Take my heart, my soul, my money
But don't leave me here drowning in my tears

There's so much I want to do
I've got love enough for two
And I'll never use it, girl, if I don't have you

FREEDOM




I am just a black man 
Walking around with a childish dream 
I recall all through life I struggled 
I couldn't get anyone in my dreams to see 

Slave to a corrupt political system 
Slave to employment without retirement benefits 
Slave to inequality and tyranny 
Every day I watched glimpses of my dreams die 

Whenever I walk out of the door 
I never forget a brother rotting in jail 
I never forget a mother sexually bruised 
A girl child betroth into early marriage

They say I am free because I have an education 
I am free because I found shelter in an orphanage 
I can afford to have a three square meal 
I can walk on the street without been maimed 

But every day I am scared of been intimidated 
Unprecedented policies depriving the people's need 
Like a congregation blindly addressed 
By a prophet with unquestionable misdeed 

This is what is found in the world today 
I could never be pronounced free 
Not until the day I take a hit 
Only a dead man can truly be free

UNFLAWED






When I pull up a pen and sheet of paper
The thoughts that run through my mind
Literally cannot be defined
Despite memorizing them in my heart

Blood shed clotting my vision
Hatred caressing my mind
Tears of the lonely struggle
Weakness of a man with pride

No one knows what I have being through
Dreams broken; shredded into pieces
Tossed away into the sea to drown
An attempt by the world to shut me down

Watch me closely once your eyes are wide open
Like a bright light shining above the sky
My dreams and visions cannot die
Not as long I can spare a drop of breath 

Some call me hypocrite; some say I am a loser
But the end will justify the means
I don’t make promises I cannot keep
Who are you to judge me?

I could never get to my peak
The sun always shining down at me
In life, I could only beat myself up
Betraying the sacrifices of a mother
