THE BARTER OF LIFE
Nothing goes for nothing
Something goes for something
For you to receive, you have to give
I hope you all understand this
So you can live at ease
Let go of what's not nourishing
So you don't perish
Make way for what is replenishing
So you can flourish.
Let go of the old
So you can welcome something new
They said the kingdom of God is within
Even worms eat kola from within
Some are friendenemies
You got to change your circle
Or you recycle giving same results
May cause you insults.
You gotta live with discernment
Just to fulfill your assignment
Steadily observing before taking actions
If you don't stand up for something
Then you'll die for nothing
Every man an essence
Either you emerge for a purpose
Or you die for it
Because we all got our reasoning and beliefs.
