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
