Original Song - Free

I wrote this song recently, decided to title it Free. I am still looking for a singer who will add melody to it and use it to bless humanity. If you have concrete ideas, please send an email.



Inspiration 
This is the summary of my life, I have a very graphic imagination and as such, ghosts from my past still come to haunt me and I struggled for years because I would be caught in the snare every single time. But when I surrendered to His Love, I have the strength to withstand and say no. Moreover, He took away the craving for sin and it became much easier to withstand the fiery darts in my mind. The renewal process of the mind is not an easy journey, since I didn't put the junks in my mind in one day, it will take much more time to get rid of the junk.



FREE
I've got flashbacks
Seeing faces I thought I'd escaped from
Why this lingering?
Like a stalking shadow
Can I ever be free?

In the deepest part of memory bank
In the farthest part of memory lane
There all the pain I kept
But like the smoke in life
It found a way back to haunt me
Can I ever be free?

Searching far and wide
For quick-fixes to these ghosts
But realized I have been set free
I just didn’t know it
I gave up my searching
And accepted His Love

Now I'm free (till fade)

WORLD SHAKER

The first time I said the words ''WORLD SHAKER'' was way back October 1, 2002. For the next 5 years, I kept on telling anybody that cared/didn't care to listen that I am a World Shaker even though I didn't fully understand what/how exactly I would go about shaking it. Sometime in 2007, God asked me who a World Shaker is and honestly between you and I, my head was blank; He [God] taught me right there and then that a World Shaker is someone who affects his neighbour positively i.e. someone who influences his neighbour to think/act positively; someone who adds value to another person. The power of 1 is so strong because that 1 person has the potential to influence 1 million others the world over; ergo, do all that is within your capacity to help someone think better. It is said that you act to the best of their knowledge per time; if you know better, you will do better. If you change a person's thoughts, you have inadvertently changed the person's li...

HOPE + FUL - LESS = HOPE

#OccupyNigeria #FuelSubsidy #ABSURAPE #ALUU4 #MUBI #BOKOHARAM #PLANECRASH #FESTACRAPE #UNBOMBING #KIDNAPPING #PILEUPS #BUILDINGCOLLAPSE #FIREDISASTER It is evident that we live in a broken world and nothing we do will fix the predicament we the inhabitants find ourselves because we ourselves are imperfect and there is no way we can create a perfect system out of an imperfect mind. The mere fact that we go from one tragedy to the other shows that the change we seek has to start with us, otherwise, we will remain in the same dysfunctional state where things seem to work, only to take turns for the worse and degenerate into terrible situations which jolts us back to reality. That some of the tragedies we have witnessed in recent times are man-made and preventable is enough reason for us to realize that we need to consciously work on renewing our minds. Where's the love gone? Love for self precedes love for others and this will breed fore-thought and help your decision-making ...

Highly Indebted

There is no self-made human being anywhere, we are all products of the people in our lives, a reflection of who they are. More often than not, we turn out just like the people closest to us, and we perpetuate or if at all possible, re-invent ourselves to chart a new course. I would like to appreciate some of those people who shared their knowledge with me. Sometime in December of the year 2000, my friend Bukola had told the class to expect someone who would come to teach us some science subjects after closing hours. I couldn't have imagined that the trajectory of my life would be altered forever. He sauntered in about a full-hour behind schedule, said simply "my name is Franklyn Eze, you can call me FRC" and after apologizing asked the about a dozen of us left in the class the question "what makes tomato red?" I was taken aback, not only because it had never crossed my mind, but because I had been asked by someone who was about the same age as me or a co...
