Cry of Africa

CRY FOR AFRICA
Throw me the dough to survive the jungle
The mastery of persistent i tangle
Call not away from the basin sides
Am a believer that rain of blood is near
Who will carry our lamp
For it is a travel through the forest
Never fly away my faith
For  there is where my hope lives
The wail of my citizen roars
I hear the bleed of their souls
Longing for bread these miscreants promised
Yet another peck we are wooed with
Our flourish is buying offshore to shine
Making our tarry last forever
You make our offspring hustler they call it
Turning this garden to jungle
A mere contest to a competition
Even in this walk of shame ;
Your speech is preach churchy
Only for your decisions to be like taut with a head
I will call not for cry no more
Emancipation is what i await to plough our history
Naming our bastards with the tag nemesis
How long will passing by continue
Filming  the rape of our spoil
They argue only for who to take next round ;
On our laxity the ignorance we embraced
Waiting always on the queue again because of peanuts
No wonder we are treated like peasants
The hate our oloriburuku politicians had showered
Another party plan we are always
Only to see our gains catering for their oyinbo brothers from another mother
I wonder how their bloodline share their identity
Sorry, i forgot we are too stupid to know when to cross the line
Stop the crying Africa ;
And bury the ignorance you bought from them
Never is a denial
Do it now , the revival that will wipe your tears.

Wake

WAKE
Living in my dream to sell out my bail
Riding stately on my goals like a smooth sail
Am so sure of winning even when the scoreboard is red
My faith has brought me this far
Even when the tides is too high to fly
I will swim my breakthrough past the walls
And tell my playlet to the waiters on the other side
Losing is never a choice when contending with records
Only a big mistake i made again never to walk on water
To caution my fears of getting tired of being around
Drag my strength
I plea you ,my fate
Help my borrow and allow me lend
Now is the arrival i long waited
Finally my name will travel beyond the sky
Am i awake ?
Yes , am ready to live my dreams even with nightmares.
Good morning critics.

Hunting the Loins

HUNTING THE LOINS
My heart is too weak to call for helps
Finding a suitor that has sight is like training for biceps
Which assurance is decided on too many things
Luxury is a perfume that attracts the availables
Only for my soul to refuses their lies called valuables
Quench my taste of what it is to live
Buy me space in your earth for me to till
I prefer a garden with the shrubs thought i have for you
This fight of swordsmanship is a sport i don't play spectator to
Give me a chance to win your pride
My leisure
Honorable pleasure
Invaluable treasure
Ocean without measure
Wind without seizure
Rule my uptown
For i want to buy your downtown forever.

My Driver

MY DRIVER
I rain from the sky amidst saints who are priceless
My paradise was wooed by a womb man
The driver of my journey to this warm place with surface
Without anxiety i considered to my joy
For her pride is not only new experience from another haven
But also have a property to call my dividend
This juliana from the 7th heaven
My personal pride 
My under rated fortress
My indispensible 
My representation of god
My motivation to hanging on
My loyal fan from embryo to testimony
My reason to be happy always
My little camp of knowledge
My consistent value maker
The heart i carry evermore
A story i cannot tell enough
A many reason to continue God pronouncements 
The why i will always push
MY OWN FIRST LOVE 
IYA TOSIN IS MY MOTHER

Premiere

premiere 

A  Victoria in the garden of impeccability
Juliana from the clouds above the sky
I look afar for a merry band of winners
Be a legacy to awaiting offspring i plea
Our reason for seeing the beautiful lost eden again you are
Lancelot in vessel of support i know
Alas, you are a poetry worth writing again
On this road come a travelogue
Nurturing the faith of believing
Who will pay for this dialogue
Unprecedently i trance so high to ink this far
Cheering at the airport is near for you
Home coming a pleasure you will welcome
Eager we are for you to arrive sooner
Knowing that you are indispensible to this habitat
Walk down the challenges in strength
Another hero we have discovered in YOU.

Rapture

RAPTURE
Let the rain fall from the river of drought
Give the blind glasses to walk
Tame the povertarian with manifestoes
What a way my country politician have traveled
Did you remember the congo of the belly
The much we pay to sustain our breath
Fighting always to win with pride we lost
I lost hope we had a legacy
How many more will travel beyond
To reconcile our long grudge with nature
I guessed we are long due for freedom
What are they called ,the bastards that held our neck to thirst
punishing our innocent intestine for a sin that even our spine is not aware of
If taking it by tent pitching is the answer
I will prefer that which will tear cloths of dominance
Pour on our streets the water from the hunters socket
The devil that allows satan to go on vacation they are
My fingers cannot be tell lies , especially when naira is more scarce than pounds
Tell the survivors not to play to the gallery as nemesis is a season
Rushing like the wings of trumpet to blow away the worries of the sun city citizens

Tele Text To My Precious Pearl

Tele text to my precious pearl
Elegant victor in a nine ribs design
Star-studded pageant that i know first 
The teacher i cannot pay salary
Her sadness she hides to make me live
Even when doubt, hatred and many to quit clouds she resist 
Returning soldiers of long lost to their barracks for reformation
Always on the toe to fend like a lone ranger
Doing so much to think womb man is also a Lancelot
Ever consistent source of inspiration
God made for so many she knows not
Intolerance for indiscipline i have schooled from
Talking , toiling , and always working to enhance result
Esther, you are called; but i prefer a conqueror cause you have won so many battle to be called a KING.
HAPPY BORNDAY MAMY,IYA OLUWATOSIN
