Cold world, When you feel all alone. Cold world, When the pain is like what you own. Cold world, When it's like you fell from the sky With no one to call your type. Cold world, When they want you to repent And no one cares about you. Cold world. Cold world, When everything is your fault Whether you're right or not. Cold world.

Cold World
We didn't want to be in your country In this first place, You dragged us to your country. On our backs we built the future. You called us different nasty names, Reduced us to animals Despite all the degradation We made it still. Shame on you. It's painful being you right now. The more you make us feel small The bigger we are, we define ourselves. We are real deal, we are love Of course yes, we are BLACKS

Things be somehow As I be man, I dey try make I no bow To pressure around town. I no wan too think am I no wan too show am. Man dey try Make man no cry. To the world I sleek Between you and me, I weak. Come give me breast Make I **** first, Make I recharge my joy, Treat me like a little boy. I don sick And na you be my medicine. - @Olladave

Na You Be My Medicine
Sometimes I want to be the poet Other times, I say not yet. Sometimes I want to enjoy life Other times, I want a wife. One time I say no to a bottle of beer Other times, too much a pain to bear

Pain to bear
In every little thing you do Be fair and true Not only for others good. For what you sow, the world gives to you. More than the seed you can hold, Your harvest in multiple folds. From the top, the ground is hard to see. The ground is where we slept, Where we dreamt, And lept; In hope to find our strength. Up, you are today, Heed, is all i'll say. For next time you fall to the ground It may be in the cold hands of death. Heed.

Heed
Kept feeling this hurt  In my heart, I left last night.  I kept looking back Thinking you will call back.  A little birdie  Told me you won't.  Alone. ‎ After all these years.  Back to where I stated from Alone.

Last Night
A jungle of trouble Where people live once, Wish they die and rise In another Place and time Love to live once, die and live twice. The bad jungle that harbors good men A good man will eventually gets tired of here He'll search for a land christened good Where good stones are longing To be pillars for the head of good men. Good man gets carried away Snuffs live out of himself And stopped being good cos he killed a soul. Once a killer, always a killer And the land named good forbids bad people. So if today is bad Do not be touched. When today goes, you die Tomorrow comes you live again The creator is not nut He wants to see what you'd do With what you've always complained about More lives.

Mr Jonah was sent to Nineveh He head out but took a detour Now in the belly of the beast. Mr Jonah cannot change things overnight Says his town's men Who will Carry or move anything Without power? Obviously no one, so we need power They also said; That's not possible overnight. Our palm oil is dry No groundnut oil to fry Nobody is buying our powerful oil Yet we have to sell before we boil If we don't sell something We will not eat anything. Our children are misbehaving Is this the future we are saving? Will Mr Jonah build a place Full of tutors? Well,that's not possible overnight Cows everywhere Is there no one to check these cows? Mr check cow is busy Burning our farms and farmers Mr Jonah cannot stop Mr check cow Not overnight. 365 days make a year How many years make an overnight? The writer coughs; 6 years makes one night. Wait o, is 6years overnight?
