"In the land of Naira

peoples go on 'shuffering and shmiling'

Her rulers in 'zee oza' room with pills of Viagra

aphrodisiac at premium in soulless pilfer unending."


Señor! Time to return to the hacienda! angry

All hail the honorable minister Mr lai.
The minister for tourism culture and lies.
Your lies are hovering every where like flies.
Oh my,
Your lies are well laid like tiles,
Even the devil hears them and shouts 'bros u try'
recently when u said tomato scarcity was caused by bokoharam, i could hear boko boys shouting '' kia bross that one na lie''
Even issues that are obvious to the eyes,
you still twist them like one trying to knot a tie.
Many times i wonder if your bank of lies ever runs dry,
Because u manufacture new ones as days go bye.
When we stopped hearing from you for a while we all wondered why,
Never knew you went to gather new ones like someone who went to source for fresh wine.
chai!
Just at the mention of your name, truth begins to cry,
All hail the honorable minster for lies.

Kindness is like 1st Love,
It can change a Life,
With a Miracle and a Promise,
To wipe away Sorrow and Strife....

I will give you my heart; I will open it up,
Will you listen to its small still voice?
For soft and quiet my heart will speak,
To the one I will call my wife.

Did you hear it dear? Did you listen well?
Do you understand what it said?
For deep is the love that it speaks to you,
Deep as the rose is red.

So, take my heart and treat it well,
And forever in this life,
Come walk with me, your hand in mine,
The one I will call my wife.

Lines are naturally created
Doves are morally devine
What would be would be
Even when passion supercedes Vision.


Mission is deligent
Disaster is negligence
Deligent is Rewarding

Waiting to see Ali in uniform
Senators be pricking the man like unicorn
Old crooks thieving our money in unison
Having me wishing m a centurion!

If a task is once begun,
Never leave it till it's done;
Be the labour great or small,
Do it well or not at all......

--------------------------------------------------------------------

If your lips would keep from slips,
Five things observe with care:
Of whom you speak, to whom you speak,
How you speak,
When and Where you speak.......

Envy is found in the hearts of friends Who are so close to your chest Speak little of your intentions And live your life to the fullest.

My fear
My fear are unknown
My pain can't be quantify
My obsession to know that which causes me the aforementioned
Is limitless

I tried several times to put a spade to it
I fought days and nights to put an end to it
I wrestle with my thought to reach a conclusion
I even hated myself for who I'm and what I'm becoming

Night and days passes by
Still encompassed in my thought nd pain
Questions nd answers fighting royal rumble
Deep inside my head
I smile a lot but empty and weep within

I seek for solution and all I got was isolation

Little sounds from the heart;
Whistle tones from the soul.
Twitting words so new.
Flowing from a mind so true.

A Message of love for you.

They say I'm knee deep in sin alcohol n sex
That I choke on this weed to relieve the stress
That I'm jobless. Truth hurts I confess.
Me no perfect, I just pray 4 success.
Still! They respect, I come with rawness on the mic I'm 10 feet of lyrics on flawless energy.
Critics say I'm weird, when I'm gone let my tombstone read "HE SPIT FIRE. NO LIAR".
Amma keep doing music till I retire.
Till pepper rest 4 account me nah go tire.
I go must hammer. Headed to bank looking simple like I'm ordinary still. Gada's the name.....
I'm hotta than Dalla n peso, euro n naira ain't nada.
My passion is much stronger!!!!

abeg is this poem or rap grin grin
yomibelle:
GUNNER

My blood is red,
My wounds been pressed,
London's depressed,
Arsenal put to rest,
By unmerciful pests.

I am a gunner,
Tag me a loser,
I'll one day be a winner,
Claimed the problem is with Wenger,
Some think its the players,
I think we need a winger,
All are nothing but wonders.

Our club lacks passion
From the manager's reaction,
The players' action,
To the fans' captions.
I belong to this club even with this hypertension.

Plague and tears

Far journey from home
One way journey for knowledge
Bittersweet of colonization
And oppression.

The best legacy they says
Through oceans and miles
Through days and nights
Steadfast.

Home after years
Brutals and oppression
Tears and sorrow
From the barrack.

Our boot full of pride
And folders of achievement
Our walls destroy
Tears for the falling land (Africa)

A pen, and a keyboard, could be as effective as the most dangerous amunition thete is,
as a gun could kill, so does a pen and a keyboard. All you need do is use them effectively.

When have got nothing
When I keep receiving
When you keep giving
Why love me?

When your love is taken
When yet you still share it with me
When it overwhelms me
Why love me?

When I ask for more
When more than more you give
When love dares all risk
Why love me?

When I care less
When you care more
When I can’t explain it
Why love me?

When will it stop?
When it will start again?
When you and I know it’s ne’er going to end
Why love me?
