WOW!









BULLETPROOF VERSE 3

Kante:
You're so cold, but now I know
And you try to help, that I know
I'll pick up the pieces and grow
But up to you, I won't show

If you're ready, you'll come home
From east or west or where you roamed
I'll take a vacation; travel to Rome

Didn't do all that for you to love
Did it for you because I loved
But now, for me to prove my worth?

If you're in love, you'll show up
Please don't tell me to shut up
You left me, but like yeast, 
I'll come up

People keep asking me: what's up
But I just want them to shut up!
I'm dealing with things I never thought,
Don't forget we never fought.


Shore-Nice: 
You make me happy 
And you make me sad — all at once!
Memories with you are bittersweet all together!

You are just like the devil 
You give me little and you take much 
You rekindle my little heart with love 
Just for you to shatter my world 

You came to my life for a little while;
It felt like heaven
Only for you to give me scar forever
A scar that I still recovering from!

It's funny how certain people claim to love you 
Without evidence of love to show
Without evidence of love to prove
Love has action, but yours is just a reaction
To the circumstances around us.

I'm yet to recover 
From the scars you gave me 
But here I am 
Still reminiscing how real it felt. 
With tears in my eyes, 
I'm a victim of loving the devil 
When I thought you were an angel..

3rd March, 2022.


Shore told me he wasn't expecting a twist when I sent him Vashti's verse. He read and responded to the scene. It's a beautiful story with more twists, something we've seen and will see happening around our world. If you'll like to join the story, you know where I'll be.


Yours truly,
Iyanu.

WITH GOD, WE'LL RUN THROUGH A TROOP

Like Humpty Dumpty in a house of cards Your house fell down like the walls of Jericho [And it's hard to pick up the spare parts] Every spring of idea became a dying plant (God forbid!) Something of colour ends up in monochrome  Look before you leap, are words of wisdom But what if faith is leaping before you look? Or is faith leaping before you look? And where then does that place our reasoning? Is it still faith if it breaks like a broom? And what if this leap doesn't pay as due? Should our faith in God make everything (exactly) possible? However, base your plans on something solid Not something that could go up in smoke Do not be too hasty to strike gold Neither delay too long a decisive blow  Be confident in your ability to win the race But don't jump the gun and think it's going to be okay (it's not!) Have faith in God, believe he can do all things But don't back yourself into a corner and put your God to test... Like refusing to serve in a tennis game Then ...

TO KNOW I GOT YOU (WONDER WOMAN)

Omo, you dey make my heart dey beat Thinking of you, my mind dey sweet Like Chike I wan dey run to you Dem say life na suru But for you I be Eran Nuru I still smile when I think of you Revisit talks I had with you I dey bless God because of you Like which material he use make you?

THE ROAD IS NEVER ALONE

I Spoke to King Solomon yesterday, Told him I was sad and lonely, yeah; He looked at me and deeply smiled, Showed me a god-forsaken road, Then said: Listen carefully and watch, my child— The road is never alone! Listen, he said, the road is never alone! Your joy is yours, and so is sadness, Listen carefully, he said, my child— The road is never alone, And so you never walk alone! The path is lonely, and the lane is dark, Your mind is filled With a lot of things you can't track, Still, you never walk alone. Dark skies like a blacked-out picture, Blowing like garments without cincture, Tripping your feet chasing the future, Bad news that keeps the soul injured; At times, happiness becomes a decoy, Deflecting attention like a wind-up toy, But sadness remains behind the smile, Mind shattering like a broken tile… But I spoke to King Solomon yesterday, Told him I was sad and lonely, yeah; He looked at me and deeply smiled, Showed me a god-forsaken road, Then said: Listen carefully and wa...
