I'm excited to finally participate in the Vibes Web3 music competition after such a long time of planning to enter it. For week 30, I decided to sing a Nigerian song which falls in the Afrobeat style genre, and it's titled 'Comma' by Arya Star.
At first, it wasn't really easy for me to get a song to sing, but not until I came across this song, 'Comma' by Arya Star. Although it wasn't easy to practice and learn all the lyrics, I eventually got the hang of it. I'm happy that in the end, I was able to sing and give a decent performance.
Honestly, this song really gives me joy every time I listen to it. I feel a sense of rejoicing in my soul because I love the song. The song is actually about encouraging people to stay strong and strive for success. I love the song because it's so encouraging.
Another thing that was a challenge for me was the recording process. After rehearsing the song and perfecting the lyrics, I thought I was ready, but recording was a different story. Knowing that I had a limited number of takes before selecting the best one added some pressure. However, I'm happy that I finally got a take that I'm satisfied with, and I feel like I really connected with the song.
Lyrics
"Commas"
Na which kind life wey I never see?
I carry God, so I fear nothing
Steady increasing the commas
Comma, comma, commas
Original no be parody
E no fit clear for your memory
Whether na winter or summer, ajeh
Barbados, Havana, living life
See my fire burning bright
Wetin dey inside me?
Smallie wey dey mighty
Dem never know I kala, tori mo fine
Check and balance everything inside my mind daily
Trust me, you can't fool me
Energy wrong, I log off
Mo wa friendly and conscious
I'm allergic to sokuso
I'm not ready for confusion
Dem telly me, make I show love
Stability on gbona
Everything na connection
I'm not ready for confusion, hmm
Things happen
Inside life
Draw tattoo
Make I live my life
Dreams come true
If na fight
Fight the fight, make you no go tire
Fire dey go
Fire dey go
You need to put your body and soul
Leave your worries alone
Barbados, Havana, living life
See my fire burning bright
Wetin dey inside me?
Smallie wey dey mighty
Dem never know I kala, tori mo fine
Check and balance everything inside my mind daily
Trust me, you can't fool me
Energy wrong, I log off
Mo wa friendly and conscious
I'm allergic to sokuso
I'm not ready for confusion
Dem telly me, make I show love
Stability on gbona
Everything na connection
I'm not ready for confusion, hmm
Na which kind life wey I never see?
I carry God, so I fear nothing
Steady increasing the commas
Comma, comma, comma
Eh ai, eh ai, yeah yeai
Steady increasing the commas
Comma, comma, comma
