What Is My Name
What Is My Name?
What is my name?
My name
Is a tag.
What is my name?
My name
Is what follows me.
What is my name?
My name
Is what I want to be.
What is my name?
My name
Is what I am.
Your name is your
Identify.
What is your name?
My name
Is what am experiencing
His name was changed;
From Abram to Abraham
From sarai to Sarah
From Jacob to Is Israel
From Jabez to Joy
From Simeon to Peter
What is your name?
My name is Oguodugodo!
Then Oguodogodo! follows you.
If you are called after
The name of God,
Then God follows you.
If you are called
After the name
Of an Idle,
Then an Idle
Follows you.
Like a shadow
Tinting every lighting
Like a hurdle
Its follows you
Blocking every progress
Then in struggles
You fine you.
Its follows you;
Like a tag,
Its hung around
Your neck.
Like an odour
Its clings to you.
Like a smoke
Its peppers.
Like wind it blows
Though you might
Not see it from
The other realm.
If they call you the name
Of hardship,
The sorrow follows you
Ask Jabez.
If they call you
The name of wants
Then poverty
Follows you.
If they call you the name
Of wealth
Then riches
Follows you.
Ask Father Abraham
What is your name?
My name is Gideon Idudje O
Then God's strength
And Blessings
Follows me.
