MY OATH AND LOVE FOR YOU





I do solemnly swear to abide to the love I have for you
I promise to love and care for you, and also your need provide for you
I will be truthful at all time and at all cost be faithful to you
I will always carry out my duties as a man and I will forever be there for you
If for any reason we are far apart, I will everyday call to check up on you
I promise to never leave your side in time of difficulties, sickness and pains
I will wrap you around my arms and plant you flowers always
If you will allow me, I will be your guardian angel and with you build a family
I also promise to make you happy, smile with you and keep you company
I will give you my whole heart, mind, body and soul
I will never allow you to be sad, lonely or feel rejected as long as I have a soul
For the love I have for you can never bore a hole
I will love you from the depth of my heart and never let you go

I WILL LOVE YOU TOMORROW





There will always be tomorrow
And you I will follow if you are not here to stay
Maybe in time a broken heart heals 
But without you my heart would not be freed
I wished feelings can be borrowed, and then I wouldn't have to be lonely
If tomorrow my heart I can't find
As long as I am with you a new heart will find
It rained yesterday and my heart wet with thoughts of you
The sun today didn't rise early, so I took a walk in in search for you
If tomorrow the world is lost, I will find you in my dreams
For I will always love you tomorrow

I AM NOT LOOKING FOR FAME




I am like every man out there working hard to make a living
I am hustling every day on the street from morning to evening
I've got to wake up early and get home late everyday
I give my best and try to do all it takes to have a better day
I am not looking for fame; just want to have a decent life

 I may dress up neatly with my suit on looking smart 
Work extra hours and sometimes do odd jobs to get by for a start
It doesn't mean i am proud or trying to impress anyone beside me in life
I am not looking for fame; just want to have a decent life

I want to make enough money to take care of my family and buy my wife the things she deserved
I want to be happy and be nice to people around
Life can only be beautiful when we achieve the things we dream of
If you are sitting by, life is going to leave you lagging behind and rip you off
I am not looking for fame; just want to have a decent life

 I have got to be on my feet and chase the things i long for as a man
I might get a promotion tomorrow; it doesn't mean i will become a pompous man
If tomorrow you see me in my car driving down the street
Please don't envy me, I am still me and am not going change a bit
To live comfortably is every man's dream in life
I am not looking for fame; just want to have a decent life
