Hello friends
I am excited to share with you all my entry for Hive Openmic week #250 which is a cover song of Child of the World by Falz.
Falz is a Nigerian rapper/song writer and this particular song has been in existence since 2017, it's a song that contains lot's of message in it, from the lyrics you will understand that the song is talking about a girl who was very special to her mother and has been getting good achievements which made her mum very proud not until her life changed along the way and things began going left and then lost her way due to some circumstances which led her deep into living a wayward life that brought her destructions.
Well, it's a very emotional story telling song
With the aim of educating the young ones to be mindful of the life we put ourselves into, so we don't come to realize it after we're long gone.
Even after all that had happened she still founds reasons to get people sensitised about the type of life she had lived and how destructive it could, this is a song with lots of educative measures which I believe will be a good idea to share with everyone here in the community. I am grateful for this opportunity and the lord bless us all, I believe you will all enjoy my presentation.
LYRICS
Yah
Apple of her mother's eye
She be trophy daughter
Mummy raised her
Daddy never dropped a dollar
Daddy ran away, didn't wanna have a child
Mummy wasn't ready
Still remember how she cried
But time flies, all that one is in the past life
Shola ti mature,
Gbogbo body ti di large size
She just collect Law
Degree for unilag
'First Class' in the bag
Make her mummy to dey brag
She went to be an intern for her uncle
Just a little hustle before she go to Law School
My daughter, the Lord will be your muscle
Omo Jesu, Mummy know she love the Gospel
But uncle Peter, agbaya, alainitiju
One late night, 'became wild in the Sitting Room
Uncle please stop... Shhh, be silent
Uncle didn't stop till he broke the hymen
Am I a fool?
Shey I don go astray?
Am I a victim of my circumstance?
Omoluabi ti bo s'owo aye
And now, I'm feeling like I don lost my way
Am I a fool?
Shey I don go astray?
Am I a victim of my circumstance?
Omoluabi ti bo s'owo aye
And now, I'm feeling like I don lost my way
I be "child of the world"
I don become a child of the world
I be child of the world
I don become a child of the world
I be Child of the World
I don become a child of the world
I be Child of the World
(Uhn) I don become a child of the world
Yeah
She don dey look for that thing
She dey resist before
She never had a Daddy figure
So she need the love
Uncle Peter don create beast
He can't tame the stuff
She like make e rough
She can't have enough
She met some ladies wey go like rub shoulder
On some quick business
With a high turn over
Say if you ride "stick", you go ride 'Range Rover'
Aristo PLC, shey you wan be Stakeholder
Now with Sugar Daddy-loving everyday
She don dey get the pay
If you get the dollar spend the pay, no dey negotiate
She's in deep, her whole life don deteriorate
Many "belle" she don get, she don terminate
Queen "Runs girl", she no get any competition
Gomina, Senator, she's giving every politician
Somebody tell am say the consequences no dey likely
Until she tested positive to HIV
Am I a fool?
Shey I don go astray?
Am I a victim of my circumstance?
Omoluabi ti bo s'owo aye
And now, I'm feeling like I don lost my way
Am I a fool?
Shey I don go astray?
Am I a victim of my circumstance?
Omoluabi ti bo s'owo aye
And now, I'm feeling like I don lost my way
I'm a child of the world
I don become a child of the world
I be child of the world
I don become a child of the world
I be child of the world
I don become a child of the world
I be child of the world
I don become a child of the world
She promised not to disappoint
I guess she broke her vow
She let herself go
She let Mummy down
But she go fight to defeat that depression
As long as she's alive she can still find redemption
She's getting people sensitized about the virus
She's now hoping that her story might inspire us
Don't be like me, help me tell the young ones
Don't come to realize it after you're long gone
Please, don't be a fool now
Don't go astray
Don't be a victim of your circumstance
Omoluabi, ma bo s'owo aye
I didn't know when I lost my way
Please, don't be a fool
Don't go astray
Don't be a victim of your circumstance
Omoluabi ma bo s'owo aye, please
I didn't know when I lost my way
I'm a Child of the World
I just became a child of the world
I be Child of the World
I don become a child of the world
Child of the World
I just became a child of the world
Child of the world
I don become a child of the world
THANKS FOR VIEWING MY POST.
