WAITED IN THE RAIN

We waited in the rain oh beloved Nigeria

To cleanse the evil deeds off our streets

Hearts are soaked with a refreshed hope

As we patiently stand hoping for a change

Emotions dabbles in deceits and betrayers

Conscious of the ambition of the next man

Conscious of is dreams crawling deep down his heart

For every man in life has a destination

Only time can restrain his will

Pouring down wishes from the sky

We wait for a change to heal our burdens

Until homes are filled with joy and hopefulness

Of the glory once resting on our pillow

The pride that once reside among our tribes

The prestige we wore flying our nation's flag

As does yesterday not in vain

CASKET OF ROSES

World, a virgin conceived 
Blessed with love and a good heart 
She became yet unsatisfied 
And wandered deep into the dark 

She seeks retribution for an unappreciated heart 
Her beauty sold into sin and slavery 
If the world should die today 
Will she be buried in a casket made of roses?

THE DAY OF THE SUN

The day of the sun is near

Men shall no longer live in fear

There will be no more shadows in our lives

Dreams will run free, the street will come alive

The world will again wear a smile

Anchored on the joy which will fill the sky

There will be no prostitutes and beggars

No robbery, for life will be richer

Every household planted with flower and love

In our heart we will serve one God

Tomorrow will forever remain bright

All that's lost will be made again right

Pack your bags and get ready for a ride

To a journey of a life beyond the stars

Leave your worries aside so you can fly

For the day of the sun is near
