Hello friends. It has been a wonderful week and I am super grateful to be able to make this entry.
This song has been on my mind for a few days now, so it naturally felt right to choose it for my entry this week, especially because of its simplicity. I have so much to be grateful for. I graduated from university yesterday, and this whole period has been one of deep reflection for me. Reality check, you know? 😂 Like, it’s really, truly over. Congratulations to myself and my friends 🎉. So, here’s me, expressing my gratitude to God.
Kudos to the team making this community thrive @verbal-d @silentscreamer @lordbutterfly and all participants. You all rock!🎉🎉🎉

LYRICS
Though seasons change, you stay the same
When all seems lost, your love remains
It doesn't run out or leave me empty
It's overflowing, I stand amazed at
How consistent You are
Lord, how patient You are
Love unfailing has found its way to me
How consistent You are
Lord, how patient You are
Love unfailing has found its way to me
How could I forget all that you've done?
You've been faithful
I can feel the fullness of Your love
It leaves me grateful
Your love, it runs over morning by morning
Mercy runs over morning by morning
Grace, it runs over morning by morning
It's new every morning
How could I forget all that you've done?
You've been faithful
I can feel the fullness of Your love
It leaves me grateful
Your love, it runs over morning by morning
Mercy runs over morning by morning
Grace, it runs over morning by morning
It's new every morning
Oh, it's new every morning
It's new every morning
It's new every morning
It's new every morning

Hello friendss. Happy new year to you all. Cheers to a wonderful year 🥂
I mentioned in my video that this entry is inspired by my friends. I recently completed my bachelor’s degree and this month happens to be my convocation (Yaayy 💃🏾). My engineer friends were inducted the other day and it was my first time having something to celebrate with these my friends, I felt pretty emotional. I felt like I was receiving the title with them because these were my closest friends throughout my study. I’ve known some of them since we were trying to study for the entry exams and we remained very cool till the very end.
A “hive” picture
It was emotional because I was by their side most of the time in the university, I knew the loads of challenges they had to overcome to be able to stand there that day. One of my friends lost his mum in our second year (it was a tough time), some had extra jobs (the good, bad and some ugly), together with the frustration of some individually sadistic people in school, depressions, insomnia, lots of stuff. These people were also there for me at every downtime and every celebration so I was just so proud to stand there and say yeah those are my friends. They didn’t quit and at the end we all turned out to be the real champions. Grades don’t make us losers, at the end of it all we all are winners because it took different layers of challenges to turn up at the other side and we are there.
@tenesha @starstrings01 @mayorkeys @monioluwa
Congratulations again y’all!
I have expressed these in their dms but also putting this out, it might encourage someone. A simple reminder for you not to give up on whatever things worthwhile you find yourself doing, the victory at the end will be magnificent and the pain will dull in that moment. Thanks for making it this far, kindly leave a comment on your experience watching and reading this. Till next time!

LYRICS
I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand
Kicked in my face
But I've come through
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World
I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
the human race
And I ain't gonna lose
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World

Hii friends in the Vibes community! It’s been a few weeks, and I’m so pumped to be able to make this entry and on time too! This week’s theme is right on point.
December has always been a fun time for me and, I believe, for everyone. A lot of good things have happened to me over the years in December, and this year is no different. I got inducted just two weeks ago, which is part of why I wasn’t able to drop an entry that week. I’m just super grateful to be here.
I recall seeing a video of a song that states there’s merriment and snow everywhere but not in Africa 😂. I know the song meant well (it was for aid or something), but yeah, it’s partially true. We’re happier now, but still no snow; it’s harmattan we have here in Nigeria. For the past few years, the weather hasn’t been “giving,” but this year, we have it on full blast
which makes it even more exciting despite the sore throat and blocked nose effect.
I picked this song because of that very effect. I was already starting to sound like a dude and didn’t want to stress too much. And though it’s a common song, I wanted to ask Mary those questions myself 😂. It’s a very thoughtful song, and I absolutely enjoyed making this video. I hope you have the same experience watching it.
I wish everyone all the love and goodwill this season brings and hope you feel the irresistible miracle of Jesus’ birth. Don’t forget to gift your loved ones—and don’t “box” them this season 😂. Loooots of love ❤️

Hi beauties and gents! It's an amazing week, and I have a story to share with my post. The Breakup Song by Francesca is one of my personal favorites, and I first discovered it about this time last year during my Industrial Training. I was far from my comfort zone and had no choice but to embrace the spontaneity, even though it was scary at first. After deciding to present this song this week, I rehearsed it several times. Guess what? My "faith"—or should I say "fear"—was tested.
After two days of singing this song at the top of my lungs, I saw a snake right outside my door! I had just walked back from seeing a friend off when I spotted it peeking out from a hole in the wall. I managed to open the small gate attached to the railings and ran inside. From the safety of my home, I kept watching as the snake would peek out and retreat back into the hole when it sights movement. We repeated this for a while until it finally stopped showing up.
I don’t like reptiles, and I’m absolutely terrified of snakes. I was alone at home, and I couldn’t sleep. My mind ran wild with thoughts of it sneaking in through the wall, into my bathroom, room, kitchen—even through the plumbing, maybe my water closet! It wasn’t a fun time—the paranoia was next level 😂😂. I eventually got some help to seal the hole and spent the next two days praying it wouldn't show up inside. Now, I feel comfortable in my house again because I know God is with me, and here I am, blasting away fear at the top of my voice once more.
I like to face my fears, but this was definitely not something I would have chosen to confront willingly. It was forced on me, but I’m better for it. If the snake shows up again, I know now that I’m brave enough to handle it—with wisdom.

Thank you for reading all the way through! One last thing: the promotional video was so much fun to make, and I’m grateful that this platform is pushing me out of my comfort zone and helping me grow. Great job @lordbutterfly, @silentscreamer, and the ever-versatile @verbal-d!
Lyrics
Sick and tired of being sick and tired
Had as much of you as I can take
I'm so done, so over being afraid
I've gone through the motions
I've been back and forth
I know that you're thinking you've heard this before
I don't know how to say it
So I'm just gonna say it, yeah
Fear, you don't own me
There ain't no room in this story
And I ain't got time for you
Telling me what I'm not
Like you know me, well guess what?
I know who I am
I know I'm strong
And I am free
Got my own identity
So fear, you will never be welcome here
Take a minute, let it settle in
You probably never saw it coming
Something's gotta give so I give up you, oh
There's no room for you here
Yeah, I've had enough
The no vacancy sign on my heart is lit up
In case you didn't hear it
Here it is again
Is there anybody out there just like me?
Anybody needing fear to leave?
If you don't know how to say it
Sing along with me

Hello everyone! It’s been such a long, beautiful week, with many entries bringing fire. Kudos to the team that keep this community growing @lordbutterfly, @silentscreamer and @verbal-d for always bringing life to this party.
I decided to share my latest favorite song, Flowers by Samantha Ebert. It feels like a soliloquy for those moments when you're at your lowest, and somehow, the music speaks to me. I’m not quite at my lowest, but I find myself at a crossroads, and it’s been overwhelming at times. In the midst of it all, I often turn back to my journals, reminding myself that God’s faithfulness never wavers, and this season is no exception. So here’s to the valleys and flowers—the peace, the beauty, and the growth they bring 🥂.
PS: I’m now a graduate 💅🏽😌.
Till later! ❤️
¡Hola a todos! Ha sido una semana larga y hermosa, con muchas entradas llenas de pasión. Felicitaciones al equipo que sigue haciendo crecer esta comunidad: @lordbutterfly, @silentscreamer y @verbal-d, por siempre traer vida a esta fiesta.
Decidí compartir mi canción favorita más reciente, Flowers de Samantha Ebert. Se siente como un soliloquio para esos momentos en los que estás en tu punto más bajo, y de alguna manera, la música me habla. No estoy en mi punto más bajo, pero me encuentro en una encrucijada, y a veces puede ser abrumador. En medio de todo, suelo volver a mis diarios, recordándome que la fidelidad de Dios nunca falla, y esta temporada no es una excepción. Así que brindemos por los valles y las flores, por la paz, la belleza y el crecimiento que traen 🥂.
PD: ¡Ahora soy graduada 💅🏽😌!
¡Hasta luego! ❤️
Lyrics / Letras
Well, blue skies and hillsides feel so far away
And I wrote in my notebook that I've seen better days
Than the ones as of late, I can't bear the weight
The rain won't stop pouring out my window pane
And I haven't left my bedroom in 76 days
I wish something would change
'Cause I'm losing faith
So I brought it up in a desperate prayer
Lord, why are you keeping me here?
Then He said to me, "Child, I'm planting seeds
I'm a good God and I have a good plan
So trust that I'm holding a watering can
And someday you'll see that flowers grow in the valley"
So whatever the reason, I'm barely getting by
I'll trust it's a season knowing that you're by my side
Every step of the way
And I'll be okay
'Cause I brought it up in a desperate prayer
Lord, why are you keeping me here?
Then He said to me, "Child, I'm planting seeds
I'm a good God and I have a good plan"
So trust that I'm holding a watering can
And someday you'll see that flowers grow in the valley
When I'm on the mountain and looking down below
I'll see a valley of flowers that needed time to grow
And I'll thank you for the rain the hurt and days of pain
And I'll bring it up in a grateful prayer
Thank you, Jesus, for keeping me there
You know just what I need, and you've planted seeds
'Cause you're a good God with a real good plan
And you hold my world and a watering can
So I can have peace 'cause flowers grow in the valley

Hello friends! It's been a while, hehe... Finals have been really finalizing, and the stress is beyond anything we were told to expect. Anyway, thank God for life and daily blessings.
I'm really excited that I got to make a video and even meet the deadline this week! I'm currently writing my final exams and will be signing out tomorrow. It's been both stressful and exciting, and the 5-year journey is finally coming to an end, which is why I chose this song.
"For the First Time in Forever" is one of my favorite Disney songs. The storyline of the movie (Frozen), combined with Kristen Bell's animated voice, made me fall in love with it. Although the lyrics may not directly correlate with my situation, I feel exactly how Anna does! It’s a bittersweet feeling, but I'm grateful to be leaving the university. I'm not the same person I was 6 years ago—this journey has had its sweet moments and, of course, the not-so-sweet ones. However, leaving here gives me a sense of freedom, and I’m no longer cooped up in this faulty system! I'm so grateful to leave these gates with my head held high and dreams ready to be fulfilled. I am hopeful because God is always with me, so I know the future can only get better! I'm happy and excited to share my joy with you all. I hope you enjoy my cover of this song! Till next time!
LYRICS:
The window is open, so's that door
I didn't know they did that anymore
Who knew we owned eight thousand salad plates?
For years I've roamed these empty halls
Why have a ballroom with no balls?
Finally, they're opening up the gates
There'll be actual, real, live people
It'll be totally strange
But wow, am I so ready for this change!
'Cause for the first time in forever
There'll be music, there'll be light
For the first time in forever
I'll be dancing through the night
Don't know if I'm elated or gassy
But I'm somewhere in that zone
'Cause for the first time in forever
I won't be alone
I can't wait to meet everyone!
What if I meet... the one?
Tonight, imagine me gown and all
Fetchingly draped against the wall
The picture of sophisticated grace
I suddenly see him standing there
A beautiful stranger, tall and fair
I wanna stuff some chocolate in my face
But then we laugh and talk all evening
Which is totally bizarre
Nothing like the life I've led so far
For the first time in forever
There'll be magic, there'll be fun
For the first time in forever
I could be noticed by someone
And I know it is totally crazy
To dream I'd find romance
But for the first time in forever
At least I've got a chance
Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don't feel, put on a show
Make one wrong move and everyone will know
But it's only for today
It's agony to wait
Tell the guards to open up the gate
For the first time in forever
I'm getting what I'm dreaming of
A chance to change my lonely world
A chance to find true love
I know it all ends tomorrow,
So it has to be today
'Cause for the first time in forever
For the first time in forever
Nothing's in my way!

Hello vibing friends!
I missed the competition last week due to health and schoolwork, but I could still feel the excitement! It was a successful event, and a big shoutout to the winners, @jessicaossom and all, as well as the judges @verbald and @silentscreamer for their excellent work and relentless efforts.
With that excitement, I’m presenting the song "Be Alright" for this week. It’s been a long time since I made a rap cover, and I wanted to try it again. I would do a song I know well, but I fell in love with this particular song while searching, and I had so much fun learning and making this presentation as well (my roommates will probably be singing this song for the next week 😂).
“He’s got the whole world in His hands” is a song many of us sang as children. I remember a game we used to play while singing that song. This song is a reminder to trust like we did as children. Sometimes when I have so many tasks to perform (like right now), I get overwhelmed and catch myself thinking that if I don’t get this set of tasks right, my future would be on the line. In that moment, I forget that God is actually in control. This song is just a reminder for me that everything will be alright. For you too. Don’t get ahead of yourself; everything is still under control.
Thanks for making it this far! I love you, and catch you next time! ❤️ Blessings ❤️

Vibes Week 12!
It was my birthday on Tuesday (28/05), and I was hoping to do a fun song or something bright and bubbly. Alas, thanks to @jessicaossom and Team Pain 😂😂. This is a long write-up, and I hope you make it to the end.
The last time we had a family picture was on my 8th birthday. Since then, everyone has been busy with their personal lives. One of my siblings relocated to the Netherlands, which made getting together even more difficult. However, everyone was home this time, and I had to appeal to my friends to help with my duties so I could make the family trip to my hometown. Thank God for good friends.
Highlights
I had no muse for the theme this week and was going to try a really sad Scottish folk song (so we could all cry together), but the morning after my birthday, we received news of my only grandparent’s passing. It was not a sad event, though I was pained. She was just a few minutes away, and I didn’t get to see her one last time before she passed.
My grandma was estimated to be 112 years old at the time of her death (there’s strong speculation she was older), so her passing didn’t come as a shock. I was listening to this song the morning she passed, and it really got me thinking.
My grandmother was a sweet woman, though we weren’t very close due to distance. However, there were times she’d fake illness just so my mom could rush down to see her, though we all knew she was agile and very active in her old age.
Made using Canva
There were times she’d call us and ask us to pray so she could die already. On several occasions, she’d dress herself up whenever she felt weird, expecting death to come for her (never caught unfresh hehehe). When nothing happened, she’d narrate all these to us herself. I blamed all this on a lack of peer pressure as she was famously the oldest in a number of neighboring villages, until she passed.
When I heard this song the morning of her demise, it made me wonder if that was how she felt. I was reminded of her life. My mother is the only surviving child of my grandmother’s five children. It made me wonder if old age gave her so much time on her hands that it brought back the pain of losing children and some grandchildren. I wonder if she faked those illnesses because she felt alone in the world and needed someone to hold onto. I wondered if her failing system made her feel unimportant here. I even wondered if she ever played dead because I know she has had her things in order for a long time, even before her system started to fail her recently.
All in all, I’m grateful she passed easily and that she knew the Lord. I hope she gets as much peer pressure as she wants in the bosom of the Lord.
Well, well, thanks for making it this far. God rest the soul of my darling grandma, and cheers to my 13 years and the additional yearss of experience gained 🥂.

Hii friends,
It's another week to viibe! A thousand thanks to the community for your support and for providing a safe space for growth. Cheers to making vibes last 🥂
"Always Remember Us This Way" is a song from the movie A Star Is Born. Originally by Lady Gaga, I first fell in love with Noelle Johnson's cover. This song tugs at the heartstrings, speaking of separation from a lover and holding on to cherished memories. I adore not only the melody but also the optimism in the lyrics and the soulful delivery of the music.
I hope you enjoy my cover of this masterpiece. Until next time, blessings ❤️

Hello friends, it’s Vibes Week 10, with a special theme: Eurovision. It’s been an enlightening week, learning about Eurovision for the first time and experiencing some great music from the competition. I might even have a favourite candidate in this edition of the competition; don’t ask who 😂.
Dizzy is emotional, upbeat music by Olly Alexander, the contestant representing the United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, a very good first release for him. Despite struggles so far, with the week being a long one and, most importantly, amid very strong and beautiful artists, he will be in the finals. Best of luck to him. We have made a cover of the acoustic version of the song.
Myself and @bobbydones have always wanted to do a physical collaboration, but if you ask, he’ll say I forced him (lies, don’t listen hehe). Anyway, it’s the school break, and what perfect timing to get it done, so here we are. It was a fun experience—learning a new song, rehearsing, and shooting the video. We hope you enjoy this music.
https://3speak.tv/watch?v=sekani/yjrkyttwsr
It’s a joy to be participating in the competition this week; I had to take time off reading for my exams for this one! I’ve always wanted to sing a song by the Beatles, and what perfect timing!
I encountered the Beatles’ music through a movie titled Yesterday. It was about a guy who had a crash, and when he woke up from the event, the entire world knew nothing about the Beatles, so he had to reintroduce the music. The song I’m presenting today was played at the end of the movie. While replaying this particular scene, I heard my parents humming the song, and I was shocked, but of course they would know the song. What was I thinking? I’m therefore dedicating this one to them, a cheer to life.
I hope you enjoy watching my entry as much as I enjoyed making it ❤️.

Hello friends! It’s Vibes Web3 music competition week 5 and I’ll be presenting Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On. It’s a song from the famous movie Titanic and even though I’ve not seen it, I love the song. It speaks optimism even through heartbreak.
I chose this song just because it’s one I’ve always wanted to do. I hope you enjoy my cover of the beautiful music. Thank you! Hasta luego!❤️

Hello my friends! Hola mi amigos!
It's Hive Open Mic week 205. It has been a loong while and I have sorely missed the camaraderie of the community! I am so glad to be here again. A lot has happened in a few months and I hope I'll be able to share some in coming entries.
The theme for the week states "Musical Idol" by @wealthwess. This theme brings one person to mind: Michael Jackson. Though I wouldn't call him my idol but, Michael Jackson was like my childhood fantasy.

First of all, I want to take the credits of being the first person to ever feature in a music video with my friend @monioluwa 😅. It was a really cool experience. We were going to do a song by the legendary Queen (you can guess which), but couldn't due to time constraints and limitations towards preparation.
Westlife could be called a household name as many of us grew up listening to their songs and these songs are still and always will be relevant, regardless of the generation and, Flying Without Wings is one that we both love.
I hope you enjoy our presentation as much as we enjoyed filming it! Thank you! Hasta luego!
LyricsEverybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be
Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary nights
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry
You'll find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
So, impossible as it may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
'Cause who's to know which one you let go
Would have made you complete
Well, for me it's waking up beside you
To watch the sunrise on your face
To know that I can say I love you
In any given time or place
It's little things that only I know
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
'Cause you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings
And you're the place my life begins
And you'll be where it ends
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring
I'm flying without wings
Thanks For Watching. XOXO ❤❤❤

Another week to viiibe 🎊
Hello friends! My cover is titled No One Knows Tomorrow by Nigerian artist Asa. I was on my way home when I heard the song on the radio of a commercial car. Hearing the song brought back memories of my childhood and friends, so I thought it would make a good entry for the week.
As a child, it was just a song we sang, now the lyrics make a lot more sense, especially as most of us are no longer together. Like the lyrics, “When I die someday, will I be in heavenly places, singing hallelujah with an angel on the piano?" we can only be optimistic about the future, looking forward to the best!
Thanks for making it this far. I hope you enjoyed the cover as well. Hasta luego!❤️

Vibes community is lighting up Hive with the vybz (horrible rhyme? 😂).
Hello friends! It feels so good participating in this competition. Looking back, this week has been one of the longest of my life but here we are.
Like I mentioned earlier, the Vibes community has sure caused a buzz on Hive. For many musicians on hive, this competition has ignited something different. Being a weekly competition coupled with the fact that it is open to all and sundry makes it evenbetter, kudos to the founding team @lordbutterfly. Many thanks to my beautiful friends who made the effort to reach out, I was literally summoned from my long overdue break to come see this! This one is for you @olujay, @hopestylist, @bobbydones, @monioluwa, @obaro, much looove.
Trust in You by Lauren Daigle is my go-to in times like this: frustrating and depressing times. The lyrics are just encouraging and sometimes relieving. It reminds me that I don’t have to do too much, just trust. This is the same I bring to you all. These are some trying times but trust God to take care of you.
Being a very long week, it took a while to get this done. And, I made a new friend in the process of making this video. I was exhausted and running on preserve battery when she offered to be my motivation, influencing the choice of music. Victory ticked all boxes in the vibe check and I’m glad to be acquainted with her.
This is not the last of me, cheers to many weeks of ticking the Vibes community checklist 🥂.

Hello friends! It's Hive open Mic Week 158, a special week! Congratulations sis @benii on being the spotlight artist for the week. It's been a couple of months since I've been in this space due to unavoidable circumstances but I'm very happy to be back.
¡Hola amigos! Es la Hive open Mic Week 158, ¡una semana especial! Felicidades hermanita @benii por ser la artista destacada de la semana. Han pasado un par de meses desde que estuve en este espacio debido a circunstancias inevitables, pero estoy muy contenta de estar de vuelta.
People is a very interesting theme that can mean a lot of things to different people. I remember one of my big brothers sharing me this popular song on social media: people love,people leave..., pointing out how true the lyrics of these song are but also to remember that despite all these, people are beautiful. If everyone was perfect, life wouldn't be as interesting as it should be.
La gente es un tema muy interesante que puede significar muchas cosas para diferentes personas. Recuerdo que uno de mis hermanos mayores me compartió esta popular canción en las redes sociales: people love,people leave..., señalando lo cierta que es la letra de esta canción, pero también para recordar que, a pesar de todo, la gente es hermosa. Si todo el mundo fuera perfecto, la vida no sería tan interesante como debería.
The idea of perfection drew my attention to this song. From the lyrics, it began as comparison of oneself with other people. Many times, we are tempted to compare ourselves to others, causing a great deal of unhappiness for ourselves and even people around us. Comparison can persuade you into things you shouldn't do and sometimes you just learn to accept you for you.
La idea de perfección me llamó la atención en esta canción. Por la letra, empezó como comparación de uno mismo con otras personas. Muchas veces caemos en la tentación de compararnos con los demás, lo que nos causa mucha infelicidad a nosotros mismos e incluso a la gente que nos rodea. La comparación puede persuadirte de cosas que no deberías hacer y a veces simplemente aprendes a aceptarte por ti mismo.
Sometimes in these circumstances, just like the lyrics, some of us come to realize that we are actually formidable because God is on our side. Everything we thnk we lack is made up for. And in times of uncertainty, this fact remains to remind us that we're never disadvantaged. This is my own confidence. Not only does this help us grow, it also helps appreciate the people we are surrounded with, despite our differences.

Lyrics/LetrasTheir human bones are as fragile as mine
I have my flaws, but they have the same kind
I was ashamed 'cause I couldn't see
That grace says that they're in the same boat as me
But what I lack
You are full of
And where I'm broken
You are whole
And what I'm doubting
You are sure of
So I'll trust the lover
Lover of my soul
I'm not afraid of the arrows by day
Nor the darkness that comes when the sun rolls away
Lord, You know that my strength never lasts
But You make up for every weakness I have
And what I lack
You are full of
And where I'm broken
You are whole
And what I'm doubting
You are sure of
I'll trust the Lover
Lover of my soul, yeah
What I confess
You will cover
And what I let go
You'll control
Lord, my hope is
In no other
I'll trust the Lover
Sus huesos humanos son tan frágiles como los míosYo tengo mis defectos, pero ellos tienen los mismosMe avergonzaba porque no podía verQue la gracia dice que están en el mismo barco que yoPero de lo que yo carezco
Usted está lleno de
Y donde yo estoy roto
Tú estás entero
Y de lo que dudo
Tú estás seguro
Así que confiaré en el amante
Amante de mi alma
No temo a las flechas del día
Ni la oscuridad que viene cuando el sol se va
Señor, Tú sabes que mi fuerza nunca dura
Pero Tú compensas cada debilidad que tengo
Y lo que me falta
Tú me llenas
Y donde estoy roto
Tú estás entero
Y de lo que dudo
Tú estás seguro
Confiaré en el Amante
Amante de mi alma, sí
Lo que confieso
Tú cubrirás
Y lo que deje ir
Tú controlarás
Señor, mi esperanza está
En ningún otro
Confiaré en el Amante

Konnichiwa! We are doing this week the Japanese way. I'm not a big fan of movies is probably why I've not delved into the anime world. I watched one with a friend some days ago and I must admit that it was better than I used to think, a bit dramatic though.

Moving on to my choice of song, it's been a couple of long weeks, but this week was particularly lengthy. I didn't have a chance to learn a song for the theme like I'd have loved to, but I chose to do one I love. This song speaks to me on different levels each time I listen to it. This time, it's more of a comfort to me than anything else. I'm glad I was able to get this done this week, and I hope you enjoy listening to it!
Like I said in my intro, it'll be a while before I show my face around here; these exams are getting me worked up, but I'm sure it'll turn out fine. Wish me the best. Catch ya later!

Lyrics I desire Jesus
Precious Lamb Who ransomed me
Upon the cross He took my sin
By His blood He set me free
I desire Jesus
Oh His Name My soul esteem
For upon His thorn-scarred brow
Is the crown of victory
He is worthy of all honour
All glory to His Name
He alone deserves Our highest praise
And forever He will reign
I desire Jesus
Triumphant One The earth awaits
For on that day The earth will shine
With the glory of Your Name
You are worthy of all honour
All glory to Your Name
You alone deserve Our highest praise
And forever You will reign
You are all glorious
You are all glorious
My heart leans in
My soul must sing
You are all glorious
Thanks For Watching. XOXO ❤❤❤

Hii friends, it's a beautiful week with a most timely theme. This week was a "cool" one (I'm maintaining positivity 😂) and I just had to tell myself that giving up is not an option. Making this video, I was stressed out and unprepared, but I didn't want to miss out on the week's theme, hence my unusual choice of music.
Coat of many colors is a song I heard and learned at a young age, and I'm sure most people are familiar with the song by the iconic Dolly Parton (the woman who never grows old). Talks about how a child's poor mother made her a coat from rags against the cold of the fall and likens it to Joseph's coat in the Bible.
Although the song itself has a message, I chose this song for the theme because whenever I want to give up, I'm reminded of hurdles I've overcome. There are some challenges we face that overcoming is like releasing your breath. So when greater challenges come our way, we believe that if we can overcome those hurdles, we can overcome any hurdle at all, even if they are greater.
I imagine being in her shoes and telling myself, "If I could live a childhood with no fancy things but a happy outlook towards life, bring it on; I can overcome anything. It's all a matter of our mindset. So next time you want to give up, remember that victory you're so proud of and remember that God's got you always.

Hola amigos, es una hermosa semana con un tema de lo más oportuno. Esta semana ha sido una semana "guay" (mantengo la positividad 😂) y sólo tenía que decirme a mi misma que rendirse no es una opción. Haciendo este vídeo, estaba estresada y poco preparada, pero no quería perderme el tema de la semana, de ahí mi inusual elección de música.
Coat of many colors es una canción que escuché y aprendí de joven, y estoy seguro de que la mayoría de la gente conoce la canción de la icónica Dolly Parton (la mujer que nunca envejece). Habla de cómo la pobre madre de una niña le hizo un abrigo con harapos contra el frío del otoño y lo compara con el abrigo de José en la Biblia.
Aunque la canción en sí tiene un mensaje, elegí esta canción para el tema porque siempre que quiero rendirme, me acuerdo de los obstáculos que he superado. Hay algunos retos a los que nos enfrentamos que superarlos es como soltar el aliento. Así que cuando se nos presentan retos mayores, creemos que si podemos superar esos obstáculos, podemos superar cualquier obstáculo, aunque sea mayor.
Me imagino en su pellejo y diciéndome a mí misma: "Si pudiera vivir una infancia sin lujos pero con una actitud feliz ante la vida, adelante; puedo superarlo todo". Todo es cuestión de nuestra mentalidad. Así que la próxima vez que quieras rendirte, recuerda esa victoria de la que estás tan orgullosa y recuerda que Dios te tiene siempre.
Lyrics / Letras
Chorus
My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money
Oh, I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
Coro
Mi abrigo de muchos colores
Que mi mamá me hizo
Hecho sólo de trapos
Pero lo llevaba con tanto orgullo
Aunque no teníamos dinero
Oh, yo era tan rico como podía ser
En mi abrigo de muchos colores
Mi mamá hizo para mí

Take Me Home, Country Roads is a favorite of mine that reminds me of memories I have with my brother of times when we were . The first time I heard this song was from the movie Kingsman: The Golden Circle, in a very emotional scene. It is hard to see that movie and not have this song imprinted on your mind.
The concept of home is relative. Several times I've heard people describe home as wherever they are, as long as they have their loved ones around them. In relation to the theme, this song describes home (to the singer) as a place. John Denver talked about the mountains and rivers of West Virginia and the environment as his home. This reminds me of where I grew up. I spent most of my childhood in the staff quarters of a tertiary institution. When I was younger, I'd take strolls with my siblings, visit the library, and admire statues, paintings, and flowers. It was like growing up with those elements. So when I had a friend over, I'd take them around and show off my non-living childhood friends (you could call them that). Below is a picture of my favorite location.
Abiola Lake
Every now and then when I'm away from home, I miss these sceneries so I make up for it whenever I'm home, especially when the students are not in session. It's a wonderful feeling that Mother Nature affords us. It would be a wonder for anyone not to love her.
Thanks for visiting my blog. It's a week to love up on Mother Nature, so let us love up together! Happy Weekend!❤❤❤

Take Me Home, Country Road es una de mis canciones favoritas que me recuerda recuerdos que tengo con mi hermano de cuando éramos más jóvenes. La primera vez que escuché esta canción fue en la película Kingsman: El Círculo Dorado, en una escena muy emotiva. Es difícil ver esa película y no tener esta canción grabada en la mente.
El concepto de casa es relativo. Varias veces he oído a gente describir el hogar como cualquier lugar en el que se encuentren, siempre y cuando tengan a sus seres queridos a su alrededor. En relación con el tema, esta canción describe el hogar (para el cantante) como un lugar. John Denver hablaba de las montañas y los ríos de Virginia Occidental y del entorno como su hogar. Esto me recuerda al lugar donde crecí. Pasé la mayor parte de mi infancia en las dependencias del personal de una institución terciaria. Cuando era más joven, paseaba con mis hermanos, visitaba la biblioteca y admiraba estatuas, cuadros y flores. Era como crecer con esos elementos. Por eso, cuando venía algún amigo a casa, lo llevaba por allí y le enseñaba a mis amigos no vivos de la infancia (se les puede llamar así). Arriba hay una foto de mi lugar favorito.
De vez en cuando, cuando estoy fuera de casa, echo de menos estos paisajes, así que los compenso siempre que estoy en casa, sobre todo cuando no hay clase. Es una sensación maravillosa la que nos brinda la Madre Naturaleza. Sería una maravilla que alguien no la amara.
Gracias por visitar mi blog. Es una semana para enamorarse de la Madre Naturaleza, ¡así que enamorémonos juntos! ¡Feliz fin de semana! ❤❤❤
Lyrics
Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees,
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
Take me home, country roads
All my memories gather round her,
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky,
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the morning hour,
She calls me,
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
Take me home, country roads
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, down country roads
Take me home, down country roads
Casi el cielo, Virginia Occidental, Montañas Blue Ridge, Río Shenandoah La vida es vieja allí, más vieja que los árboles, Más joven que las montañas, soplando como una brisa Caminos rurales, llévame a casa al lugar
Al que pertenezco
Virginia Occidental, mamma de la montaña,
Llévame a casa, caminos rurales
Todos mis recuerdos se reúnen en torno a ella,
Dama minera, extraña al agua azul
Oscuro y polvoriento, pintado en el cielo,
Brumoso sabor a luz de luna, lágrima en mi ojo
Caminos rurales, llévame a casa al lugar
Al que pertenezco
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
Take me home, country roads
Oigo su voz por la mañana, me llama,
La radio me recuerda mi hogar lejano.
Y conduciendo por la carretera tengo
La sensación de que debería haber estado en casa ayer, ayer
Caminos rurales, llévame a casa al lugar
Al que pertenezco
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
Take me home, country roads
Y me siento como en casa,
Como en casa.
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
Take me home, country roads
Llévame a casa, por caminos rurales
Llévame a casa, por caminos rurales

Hello friends. It's the week of hope. I think the theme Hopeful is just perfect for this period in time. It's a testy time that requires patience and forging ahead despite difficulties.
I discovered something while trying to make something of this theme. I came to the realization that the symbol of hope is the same as a heartbeat. As long as the heart is alive there is hope for better things to come. So as long as we are living, it's important to keep alive our hopes as well because that is living. In Passenger's words, they're like little lights shinning in our hearts.
The lyrics of this song passes the same message across. Even after our hearts have been broken we still have to pick ourselves up with the faith that better days will come around.
Thanks for visiting my blog, I hope watching this has encouraged you because I hope one day when I need it, I'll be able to watch this and be encouraged as well. See you next time ❤!
LyricsChorus:
Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again

Hello friends. It's another beautiful week in this community of awesome people. These are some stressful days, but it's always a pleasure to be here.
It's my birthday in a couple of minutes. It's been a long and meaningful year, but this is one of the times I actually think about and evaluate how much progress I've made. I was talking with a friend recently, and he was complaining about how he feels he has done nothing with his life lately. I could relate, but deep within me, I know I'm on a journey, but how is this related to the theme for the week?
Countless times, I've had people tell me how to make something of myself, how to tap into my potential, how to... I'm not complaining; it shows how much they care about me making the most of my time. I can't count how many times passion shows up on the "how-to" lists. I sometimes feel lost, but I have this peace in me knowing I'm doing it right and it'll all make sense someday.
Despite looking and not finding these "passions", I'm certain that I have a role and I have meaning, and I won't go speechless. I have a voice and a say, and I will make the best of it while I can.
Sometimes I get worried about time going by so fast, but my friend Gil tells me something from time to time. He says, "Gladdy, you are young. And if there is something you have, it is time". He taught me to think of myself as 13 years old with a few years of experience. Funny but meaningful. So here's me telling myself happy birthday and cheers to another year of experience.

Hola amigos. Es otra hermosa semana en esta comunidad de gente increíble. Son unos días estresantes, pero siempre es un placer estar aquí.
Es mi cumpleaños en un par de minutes. Ha sido un año largo y significativo, pero este es uno de los momentos en los que realmente pienso y evalúo cuánto he progresado. Hace poco hablaba con un amigo y se quejaba de que últimamente sentía que no había hecho nada con su vida. Yo me sentía identificada, pero en el fondo sé que estoy en un viaje, pero ¿cómo se relaciona esto con el tema de la semana?
En innumerables ocasiones, la gente me ha dicho cómo hacer algo por mí mismo, cómo aprovechar mi potencial, cómo... No me quejo; eso demuestra lo mucho que les importa que aproveche mi tiempo. No puedo contar cuántas veces aparece la pasión en las listas de "cómo hacerlo". A veces me siento perdida, pero tengo esta paz en mí sabiendo que lo estoy haciendo bien y que todo tendrá sentido algún día.
A pesar de buscar y no encontrar esas "pasiones", tengo la certeza de que tengo un papel y un sentido, y no me voy a quedar muda. Tengo voz y voz, y lo aprovecharé mientras pueda.
A veces me preocupa que el tiempo pase tan rápido, pero mi amigo Gil me dice algo de vez en cuando. Me dice: "Gladdy, eres joven. Y si hay algo que tienes, es tiempo". Me enseñó a pensar que tengo 13 años y unos cuantos de experiencia. Divertido pero significativo. Así que aquí estoy yo diciéndome feliz cumpleaños y salud por otro año de experiencia.

"When you bury emotions, you bury them alive. They only come back stronger, somewhere later in your life"
-- Andy Mineo, Family Photo
Hello, amazing friends of the Hive Open Mic community! Indeed, it's been a stressful but delightful week. A lot happened this week, that I'm beginning to forget some events. But all in all, it was a wonderful one.
The line I quoted above is from a song I love to listen to: Family Photo" by Andy Mineo. That particular line in the song has always intrigued me and made me curious to investigate if it's a fact. So far, I believe it is. The theme for this week is Be Okay and that line influenced my song choice this week.
After my little but important experience in my few decades on this earth, I've come to decide that the best way to "be okay" is to embrace whatever emotion is making you not okay. I can be a very emotional individual, and it disturbs me greatly when I feel what I don't like. Most of these emotions push me to speak to people around me who I feel are more experienced or might have something of value to share, and in all my learning, I've learned that these emotions are a perfectly normal part of our lives as humans.
Once, I recall one of my elder siblings telling me to use that feeling to do meaningful things. According to her, those emotions are what prompt us to be better. It's fine to indulge in distractions once in a while, but what would be disastrous is indulging in self-pity and moping around. These talks have changed my perspective about my "down times". Weirdly, I sometimes relish them. I take these times as a period to take a step back and reevaluate the circumstances surrounding these feelings. Believe me, it helps your mental health, helps you make better decisions in similar circumstances that are bound to happen in the future, and in fact, helps you guide others who might be in that same place. All in all, being okay, as portrayed in the art of the week's theme, means holding on to positivity in every situation we find ourselves in.

"Cuando entierras las emociones, las entierras vivas. Sólo vuelven con más fuerza, en algún momento posterior de tu vida"
-- Andy Mineo, Family Photo
¡Hola, increíbles amigos de la comunidad Hive Open Mic! En efecto, ha sido una semana estresante pero encantadora. Han pasado muchas cosas esta semana, que estoy empezando a olvidar algunos acontecimientos. Pero en general, ha sido maravillosa.
La frase que he citado antes es de una canción que me encanta escuchar: Family Photo" de Andy Mineo. Esa frase de la canción siempre me ha intrigado y me ha dado curiosidad por investigar si es cierta. Hasta ahora, creo que lo es. El tema de esta semana es Be Okay y esa línea influyó en mi elección de canción de esta semana.
Después de mi pequeña pero importante experiencia en mis pocas décadas en esta tierra, he llegado a decidir que la mejor manera de "estar bien" es abrazar cualquier emoción que te esté haciendo no estar bien. Puedo ser un individuo muy emocional, y me molesta mucho cuando siento lo que no me gusta. La mayoría de estas emociones me empujan a hablar con personas de mi entorno que creo que tienen más experiencia o que podrían tener algo valioso que compartir, y en todo mi aprendizaje, he aprendido que estas emociones son una parte perfectamente normal de nuestras vidas como humanos.
Una vez, recuerdo que una de mis hermanas mayores me dijo que utilizara ese sentimiento para hacer cosas significativas. Según ella, esas emociones son las que nos impulsan a ser mejores. Está bien distraerse de vez en cuando, pero lo que sería desastroso es autocompadecerse y deprimirse. Estas charlas han cambiado mi perspectiva de los "tiempos muertos". Curiosamente, a veces los disfruto. Me los tomo como un periodo para dar un paso atrás y reevaluar las circunstancias que rodean esos sentimientos. Créeme, ayuda a tu salud mental, te ayuda a tomar mejores decisiones en circunstancias similares que seguramente te ocurrirán en el futuro y, de hecho, te ayuda a guiar a otros que puedan estar en ese mismo lugar. En definitiva, estar bien, como se representa en el arte del tema de la semana, significa aferrarse al positivismo en cualquier situación en la que nos encontremos.

Hii Hive Open Mic familia 🥳🥳. I'm happy to be back this week, resumption palaver made me miss this previous theme. I appreciate the chance to present my videos here always.
The theme for this week is My Original Song. I don't have one, so I decided to present a song I've always wanted to instead. I'm not technically without an original song; I composed one when I was about 7 or 8 years old. Awesome right? I'm the last born in my family, so I didn't have a playmate. One particular day, I was so bored and didn't know what to do. So I sat there staring until my eyes caught a calendar hanging on the wall—a calendar of the maternity home where I was born. Myself and two of my siblings were born in that home, and some families close to us also had most of their children in the same hospital.
I remember once I was sick and was admitted there for 3 days; that's the only time I stayed overnight in a hospital, and the matron was so nice. She got me sweets and everything I wanted. So as a kind gesture in return, I decided to make a jingle (I'd never heard them advertise on radio, and I thought it'd be a great idea to do that). So I sat by myself that day and made a song for the jingle—a nice one, I must say, but there is a but. One of my siblings snuck up on me during the process and heard me. He went ahead to tell everyone else, and it became a family joke. Thinking about it now, those are memories we appreciate whenever we get a chance to catch up as a family (I still get embarrassed to this day), and it's usually fun. But I can't help but consider what would've happened if my family treated it differently; I'd probably be a great musician and jingle artist by now (just walking you through my wild thoughts🤣).
The first I heard of this song was from a friend in junior high school; she saw this funny audition and was so dramatic singing the song to me back then. I grew to love the original song, and every time I listen to it, my mind draws up that image of her singing and laughing. Killing me softly is a song that stirs something in me. I'm yet to decide what, but in simple words, I love the song so much, and I love Lauryn Hill even more since seeing her first in the movie Sisters' Act. I most certainly hope you enjoyed my presentation. Catch you next week!

Hola Hive Open Mic familia 🥳🥳. Estoy feliz de estar de vuelta esta semana, palaver reanudación me hizo perder este tema anterior. Agradezco la oportunidad de presentar mis videos aquí siempre.
El tema de esta semana es Mi canción original. No tengo uno, así que decidí presentar una canción que siempre he querido en su lugar. Técnicamente no carezco de canción original; compuse una cuando tenía unos 7 u 8 años. Impresionante, ¿verdad? Soy el último nacido de mi familia, así que no tenía compañero de juegos. Un día en particular, estaba muy aburrida y no sabía qué hacer. Así que me quedé mirando hasta que mis ojos vieron un calendario colgado en la pared: el calendario de la maternidad donde nací. Yo y dos de mis hermanos nacimos en esa casa, y algunas familias cercanas también tuvieron a la mayoría de sus hijos en el mismo hospital.
Recuerdo una vez que estuve enferma y me ingresaron allí 3 días; fue la única vez que pasé la noche en un hospital, y la matrona fue muy amable. Me dio caramelos y todo lo que quise. Así que, como gesto amable a cambio, decidí hacer un jingle (nunca les había oído anunciarse en la radio, y pensé que sería una gran idea hacerlo). Así que ese día me senté solo e hice una canción para el jingle -una bonita, debo decir, pero hay un pero. Uno de mis hermanos se me acercó durante el proceso y me oyó. Se adelantó a contárselo a los demás y se convirtió en una broma familiar. Pensándolo ahora, son recuerdos que apreciamos siempre que tenemos ocasión de ponernos al día en familia (a mí todavía me da vergüenza a día de hoy), y suele ser divertido. Pero no puedo dejar de pensar en lo que habría pasado si mi familia lo hubiera tratado de otra manera; probablemente ahora sería un gran músico y artista de jingles (solo te hago partícipe de mis alocados pensamientos🤣).
La primera vez que oí hablar de esta canción fue a una amiga del instituto; ella vio esta divertida audición y se puso muy dramática cantándome la canción por aquel entonces. Me encantó la canción original, y cada vez que la escucho, mi mente evoca esa imagen de ella cantando y riendo. Killing me softly es una canción que despierta algo en mí. Aún no he decidido qué, pero en palabras sencillas, me gusta mucho la canción, y me gusta aún más Lauryn Hill desde que la vi por primera vez en la película Sisters' Act. Espero que hayan disfrutado de mi presentación. Nos vemos la semana que viene.

Hii Hive Open Mic 🥳🥳. It's a very unique week and probably the most stressful one I've had in a long while, but I couldn't pass up the chance to appreciate my friends. Congratulations to my friend @jesus-son for giving us such a beautiful theme this week. You're doing well.
The theme states, "A Good Friend." Numerous times, I've asked myself if I'm actually a good friend to my beautiful friends. I've never really dwelt on that question, but this theme has made me think about it. That question led me to another question: How do I gauge a good friend?
Sacrifices and selflessness are what we often attribute to good friends. Those are important, but to me, a good friendship means much more. To me, friendship means coming to a place of mutual understanding with people. Friendship is a lot more than giving and taking; you let people in on your life, you get to know each other, and you grow and learn together.
One of the major things I have learned in my most cherished friendships is vulnerability. Friends know our weaknesses and down times, and they're always there to encourage us despite them. At times, we don't have as many chitchat sessions as we usually do, but whenever we get the chance, we make it worthwhile. I've also come to the realization that, as far as being there for one another goes, there are times or situations where friends can do little, but knowing that little might be their best at the time makes our friendships solid still.
I've met a number of coool people through Hive. A big shoutout to my friends on Hive @monioluwa, @josediccus, @olujay, @chosenfingers, @jaydr, @ @monica-ene, @hopestylist, @maryjacy, @rukkie, @ksam, @isaacngore, @jjmusa2004 and a lot of wonderful people. You all are the best 🥰. Cheers to more years of beautiful friendship 🥳

Hii Hive Open Mic 🥳🥳. Es una semana muy singular y probablemente la más estresante que he tenido en mucho tiempo, pero no podía dejar pasar la oportunidad de apreciar a mis amigos. Felicidades a mi amigo @jesus-son por regalarnos un tema tan bonito esta semana. Lo estás haciendo muy bien.
El tema dice: "Un buen amigo " Numerosas veces me he preguntado si realmente soy un buen amigo para mis hermosos amigos. Nunca me había parado a pensar en ello, pero este tema me ha hecho reflexionar. Esa pregunta me llevó a otra pregunta: ¿Cómo califico a un buen amigo?
Sacrificios y desinterés es lo que solemos atribuir a los buenos amigos. Son importantes, pero para mí una buena amistad significa mucho más. Para mí, la amistad significa llegar a un punto de entendimiento mutuo con la gente. La amistad es mucho más que dar y recibir; dejas que la gente entre en tu vida, llegas a conoceros y crecéis y aprendéis juntos.
Una de las cosas más importantes que he aprendido en mis amistades más queridas es la vulnerabilidad. Los amigos conocen nuestras debilidades y nuestros momentos de bajón, y siempre están ahí para animarnos a pesar de ellos. A veces, no tenemos tantas sesiones de cháchara como de costumbre, pero siempre que tenemos ocasión, hacemos que valga la pena. También me he dado cuenta de que, en lo que se refiere a estar ahí el uno para el otro, hay veces o situaciones en las que los amigos pueden hacer poco, pero saber que ese poco puede ser lo mejor en ese momento hace que nuestra amistad siga siendo sólida.
He conocido a mucha gente genial a través de Hive. Un gran saludo a mis amigos de Hive @monioluwa, @josediccus, @olujay, @chosenfingers, @jaydr, @ @monica-ene, @hopestylist, @maryjacy, @rukkie, @ksam, @isaacngore, @jjmusa2004 y un montón de gente maravillosa. Todos ustedes son los mejores 🥰. Salud por más años de hermosa amistad 🥳.

When all the tears are rolling down your face
And it feels like yours was the only heart to break
When you come back home and all the lights are out, ooh
And you getting used to no one else being around
Chorus
Oh, oh, I'll be there
When you need a little love, I got a little love to share
Yeah, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna come through
You'll never be alone, I'll be there for you
I'll be there, I'll be there for you
I'll be there, I'll be there for you
Oh, I swear, I got enough love for two, ooh, ooh, ooh
You'll never be alone, I'll be there for you

Cuando todas las lágrimas ruedan por tu cara
Y parece que el tuyo fue el único corazón que se rompió.
Cuando vuelves a casa y todas las luces están apagadas, ooh
Y te acostumbras a que nadie más esté cerca
Estribillo
Oh, oh, estaré allí
Cuando necesites un poco de amor, tengo un poco de amor para compartir
Yeah, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna come through
Nunca estarás solo, estaré ahí para ti.
Voy a estar ahí, voy a estar ahí para ti
Voy a estar ahí, voy a estar ahí para ti
Oh, lo juro, tengo suficiente amor para dos, ooh, ooh, ooh
Nunca estarás sola, estaré ahí para ti

Hii Hive Open Mic... The uniqueness of the theme of this week cannot be overemphasized. This is an awesome one, @karlex77. Well done, friend. During the course of the week, I've seen some awesome interpretations of the theme, especially that of our spotlight artist himself.I was speaking with a friend earlier this week, and we got talking about friends and adulthood. A Yoruba adage states that 20 children cannot play for twenty years. With time, we find ourselves apart from our friends and loved ones due to several reasons, including life generally. Sometimes we remember them, sometimes we don't.
We come to a place where we realize that distance doesn't necessarily mean we burn bridges. We graduate in our relationships and come to a level where we know that we keep ourselves in our hearts, and in dire times, we'll be there for one another. There are times when we might be lonely, but we know that we're not alone. We're united in our hearts, and together, despite the distance, we'll brave milestones.
I listened to this song for the first time two weeks ago and came across it again earlier this week. The lyrics of the song typically depict the meaning of the theme this week. The song states "You're not alone; we're family", which is true. You have some relationships that turn out to be as strong as biological. No matter what happens, you'll always have that bond. I flex that fact constantly in the face of my siblings and tell them that no matter how obnoxious or old I get, I'll always be their little sister. It's a beautiful thing, and it's worth replicating with the people we love.

No se puede exagerar la singularidad del tema de esta semana. Este es impresionante, @karlex77. Bien hecho, amigo. A lo largo de la semana, he visto algunas interpretaciones increíbles del tema, especialmente la de nuestro artista principal.
Hablaba con un amigo a principios de semana y nos pusimos a hablar de los amigos y la edad adulta. Un adagio yoruba afirma que veinte niños no pueden jugar durante veinte años. Con el tiempo, nos encontramos alejados de nuestros amigos y seres queridos por varias razones, incluida la vida en general. A veces nos acordamos de ellos, a veces no.
Llegamos a un punto en el que nos damos cuenta de que la distancia no significa necesariamente que quememos los puentes. Nos graduamos en nuestras relaciones y llegamos a un nivel en el que sabemos que nos guardamos en el corazón y, en tiempos difíciles, estaremos ahí para el otro. Hay momentos en los que podemos sentirnos solos, pero sabemos que no estamos solos. Estamos unidos en nuestros corazones, y juntos, a pesar de la distancia, afrontaremos los hitos.
Escuché esta canción por primera vez hace dos semanas y la he vuelto a escuchar esta semana. La letra de la canción describe perfectamente el significado del tema de esta semana. La canción dice "No estás solo; somos una familia", lo cual es cierto. Hay relaciones que resultan tan fuertes como biológicas. Pase lo que pase, siempre tendrás ese vínculo. Se lo repito constantemente a mis hermanos y les digo que, por muy odiosa o vieja que me haga, siempre seré su hermana pequeña. Es algo hermoso, y merece la pena repetirlo con las personas que queremos.
Lyrics / LetrasIn the dark of night
The stars light up the sky
We see them flying free
That's just like you and me
Everyone is lonely sometimes
But I would walk a thousand miles to see your eyes
You are not alone, we are family
Hold me, let's escape all this reality
You are my symphony
By your side, we are unity
You are my energy
My guiding light, we are unity
(We are, we are) We are unity
(We are, we are) We are unity
Although the rain might pour
A thunder starts to roar
The lightnin' wakes the waves
But through it, we are brave
Everyone is lonely sometimes
But I would walk a thousand miles to see your eyes
You are not alone, we are family
Hold me, let's escape all this reality
You are my symphony
By your side, we are unity
You are my energy
My guiding light, we are unity
(We are, we are) We are unity
(We are, we are) We are unity
We are unity
En la oscuridad de la nocheLas estrellas iluminan el cieloLas vemos volar libresComo tú y yoTodo el mundo se siente solo a veces
Pero caminaría mil millas para ver tus ojos
No estás solo, somos familia
Abrázame, escapemos de toda esta realidad
Eres mi sinfonía
A tu lado, somos unidad
Eres mi energía
Mi luz guía, somos unidad
(Somos, somos) Somos unidad
(Somos, somos) Somos unidad
Aunque llueva a cántaros
Un trueno comienza a rugir
Los relámpagos despiertan las olas
Pero a través de ella, somos valientes
Todo el mundo se siente solo a veces
Pero caminaría mil millas para ver tus ojos
No estás solo, somos una familia
Abrázame, escapemos de toda esta realidad
Eres mi sinfonía
A tu lado, somos unidad
Eres mi energía
Mi luz guía, somos unidad
(Somos, somos) Somos unidad
(Somos, somos) Somos unidad
Somos unidad

Hello, hive open mic 🥳.It's another beautiful week with an equally beautiful theme.The theme this week is basically asking you to describe who God is to you. I was in a conversation with a colleague of mine recently, and he kept going on and on about the "supreme being". I had to ask if he was scared to call him God 😂. I realize that we all have different perspectives on the existence of humans and the earth. Some believe in mother nature; some even in the inner god. Well, I am singing about the God I adore—the God who's three in one. I believe in Jesus, in His birth, death, and resurrection, and in the trinity, which is the basis of my faith. There's a song we used to sing when I was little; it says my God is big, bigger than the ocean, wider than the sea, deeper than the river, taller than a tree, higher than a mountain—my God is very big. Just like the song I presented, it acknowledges the awesomeness and unfathomable greatness of God.
How Great Is Our God by Chris Tomlin is a song that'll never be outdated. I recall hearing my sister sing this song several times when I was much younger, and that was how I came to learn the song. I was going through my archives recently and found it right there; it's a song for the season, and I'm glad to be sharing it with you. Thanks for being amazing!❤

Hola, Hive Open Mic 🥳.Es otra hermosa semana con un tema igualmente hermoso.
El tema de esta semana consiste básicamente en pedirte que describas quién es Dios para ti. Hace poco estuve en una conversación con un colega y no paraba de hablar del "ser supremo". Tuve que preguntarle si le daba miedo llamarlo Dios 😂. Me doy cuenta de que todos tenemos diferentes perspectivas sobre la existencia de los humanos y de la tierra. Algunos creen en la madre naturaleza; otros incluso en el dios interior. Pues bien, yo estoy cantando sobre el Dios que adoro: el Dios que es tres en uno. Creo en Jesús, en su nacimiento, muerte y resurrección, y en la trinidad, que es la base de mi fe. Hay una canción que solíamos cantar cuando era pequeño; dice que mi Dios es grande, más grande que el océano, más ancho que el mar, más profundo que el río, más alto que un árbol, más alto que una montaña; mi Dios es muy grande. Al igual que la canción que he presentado, reconoce la asombrosa e insondable grandeza de Dios.
How Great Is Our God de Chris Tomlin es una canción que nunca pasará de moda. Recuerdo haber oído a mi hermana cantar esta canción varias veces cuando yo era mucho más joven, y así fue como llegué a aprender la canción. Estaba revisando mis archivos recientemente y la encontré justo ahí; es una canción para la temporada, y me alegra compartirla con ustedes. ¡Gracias por ser increíbles!❤
Thanks for watching, sending you lots of love ❤

Oba alanu by Judikay is a trendy but extremely inspiring song that speaks of the mercies of God. Oba alanu means merciful king in Yoruba. Ever since the one time I was made to sing this song, I've been unable to get it out of my system. It's that song you wake up singing, the one that comes to mind when you are just brooding all by yourself. Should I go on about how much I love the song? Nah, you'll probably get bored. Thank God for the gift of Jesus and for the opportunity to be called a child of God and experience new mercies daily.
He redeems me from death and crowns me with love and tender mercies.
Psalms 103:4 NLT
With the joy of Jesus in my heart, I share this song with you all today, and I'm sharing my joy as well. I hope this lightens your heart.
Before I take my bow, distinguished members @ksam, @hopestylist, @maryjacy, @jesus-son, @ovey10, @obaro, @benii, @gloriaolar, @magicfingerz, everybody infact, I hail una 🙌🏾, make I no offend the gods 😂.

Hello, hive open mic 🥳.
It's been a stressful but interesting week. Is it just me that has brainstormed really hard for song choices in recent times? I can't be the only one 😂. I was going to do something interesting with my little friend in the thumbnail (a Disney special), but time didn't permit. I was on the edge of burnout, so I decided to do a song I have loved for a long time.
I remember as a kid, I'd sing this song whenever I had questions in my heart. This song and the hymn "Farther Along", especially one time when a family friend I loved dearly passed on, I just knew that no matter what's happening, God will always be God. If memory serves me right, this was my first special number in my secondary school weekly fellowship (embarrassing memories 🤣). Anyway, the lyrics of this song will always speak to me, and I hope they encourage you too. Thanks for watching ❤.

Hola, Hive Open Mic 🥳.
Ha sido una semana estresante pero interesante. ¿Soy yo la única que ha tenido una lluvia de ideas muy dura para elegir canción en los últimos tiempos? No puedo ser la única 😂. Iba a hacer algo interesante con mi amiguito de la miniatura (un especial Disney), pero el tiempo no me lo permitió. Estaba al borde del agotamiento, así que decidí hacer una canción que me encanta desde hace mucho tiempo.
Recuerdo que de niño cantaba esta canción siempre que tenía preguntas en el corazón. Esta canción y el himno "Farther Along", especialmente una vez, cuando falleció un amigo de la familia al que quería mucho, supe que pasara lo que pasara, Dios siempre sería Dios. Si la memoria no me falla, este fue mi primer número especial en la confraternidad semanal de mi escuela secundaria (recuerdos embarazosos 🤣). En fin, la letra de esta canción siempre me hablará, y espero que te anime a ti también. Gracias por verlo ❤️.
Thanks for watching, sending you lots of love ❤
Lyrics / LetrasLife is easy, when you're up on the mountainAnd you've got peace of mind, like you've never knownBut when things change and you're down in the valleyDon't lose faith, for you're never aloneAnd the God on the mountain is still God in the valley
When things go wrong, He'll make them right
And the God of the good times is still God in the bad times
The God of the day is still God in the night
We talk of faith when we're up on the mountain
But talk comes so easy when life's at its best
But in the valley of trials and temptations
That's when faith is really put to the test
And the God on the mountain is still God in the valley
When things go wrong, He'll make them right
And the God of the good times is still God in the bad times
The God of the day is still God in the night
The God of the day, is still God in the night
La vida es fácil, cuando estás en la montañaY tienes la paz de la mente, como nunca has conocidoPero cuando las cosas cambian y estás abajo en el valleNo pierdas la fe, porque nunca estás soloY el Dios de la montaña sigue siendo Dios en el valle
Cuando las cosas vayan mal, Él las arreglará
Y el Dios de los buenos tiempos sigue siendo Dios en los malos tiempos
El Dios del día sigue siendo Dios en la noche
Hablamos de fe cuando estamos en la montaña
Pero hablar es tan fácil cuando la vida está en su mejor momento
Pero en el valle de las pruebas y las tentaciones
Es cuando la fe es realmente puesta a prueba
Y el Dios de la montaña sigue siendo Dios en el valle
Cuando las cosas van mal, Él las arreglará
Y el Dios de los buenos tiempos sigue siendo Dios en los malos tiempos
El Dios del día sigue siendo Dios en la noche
El Dios del día, sigue siendo Dios en la noche

Hello, hive open mic 🥳.
It's another beautiful week with an amazing theme by @stickupboys. I found the theme DNA really fascinating and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought of Kendick Lamar's DNA when I saw the theme. It reminded me of high school days when my friends used to sing some pretty awful lyrics to that song 😹. Thanks for reviving sweet memories @stickupboys.
Inside me is a simple but melodious song by Pure Streams. It's also a song that reminds one of your limitless possibilities as a believer in Jesus, gladdens your heart right? I started loving this song sometimes last year when the lead singer came for a program in my school, it's one of my best memories of last year. I hope this song blesses you as much as it has blessed me.

Hola, Hive Open Mic 🥳.
Es otra hermosa semana con un tema increíble por @stickupboys. El tema DNA me pareció realmente fascinante y estoy segura de que no soy la única que pensó en DNA de Kendick Lamar cuando vi el tema. Me ha recordado a los tiempos del instituto cuando mis amigos cantaban una letra bastante horrible de esa canción 😹. Gracias por revivir dulces recuerdos @stickupboys.
Inside me es una canción sencilla pero melodiosa de Pure Streams. También es una canción que le recuerda a uno sus posibilidades ilimitadas como creyente en Jesús, alegra tu corazón ¿verdad? Empecé a amar esta canción a veces el año pasado cuando el cantante principal vino para un programa en mi escuela, es uno de mis mejores recuerdos del año pasado. Espero que esta canción te bendiga tanto como me ha bendecido a mí.
Thanks for watching, sending you lots of love ❤

Hello, hive open mic 🥳. It's an awesome week with one of my favorite themes so far by. Tú estas conmigo is such a beautiful and simple theme that makes me think about several things I'm grateful for, most of all God's presence and reassurance, hence my choice of song.
This theme reminds me of a book I started reading during the week. The writer was describing how God has created us and given us all we need to succeed in life's journey. He doesn't stop at this; He continually guides us when we surrender to Him and ask for help.
The writer related this to teaching his children to ride their bicycles. In the process of learning, he assists them by holding them, and when he eventually lets go, the child would not notice, having the confidence that he's held. When he realizes, followed by uncertainty, there is a rush that comes from realizing he can actually ride a bike.
The good part is that even when our heavenly Father is certain of our ability to make the right decisions, He's still constantly guiding us, so we don't have to look too far when we need Him. And to top it all, he has given us ourselves: humanity, to be a support system for one another. Isn't that amazing? So I'm grateful for you all as well 🤗❤.
I really hope you enjoyed my entry as much as I enjoyed making it.

Hola, hive open mic 🥳. Es una semana increíble con uno de mis temas favoritos hasta ahora por. Tú estás conmigo es un tema tan bonito y sencillo que me hace pensar en varias cosas por las que estoy agradecida, sobre todo por la presencia y la seguridad de Dios, de ahí mi elección de la canción.
Este tema me recuerda un libro que empecé a leer durante la semana. El escritor describía cómo Dios nos ha creado y nos ha dado todo lo que necesitamos para tener éxito en el camino de la vida. Él no se detiene en esto; nos guía continuamente cuando nos rendimos a Él y le pedimos ayuda.
El escritor lo relacionó con enseñar a sus hijos a montar en bicicleta. En el proceso de aprendizaje, les ayuda sujetándoles, y cuando finalmente les suelta, el niño no se da cuenta, pues tiene la confianza de que le sujetan. Cuando se da cuenta, seguido por la incertidumbre, se produce un subidón al darse cuenta de que realmente puede montar en bicicleta.
La parte buena es que, incluso cuando nuestro Padre celestial está seguro de nuestra capacidad para tomar las decisiones correctas, sigue guiándonos constantemente, de modo que no tenemos que mirar demasiado lejos cuando le necesitamos. Y para colmo, nos ha dado a nosotros mismos: la humanidad, para que seamos un sistema de apoyo mutuo. ¿No es increíble? Así que estoy agradecida por todos ustedes también 🤗❤.
Espero de verdad que os haya gustado mi entrada tanto como a mí hacerla.
Thanks for watching, sending you lots of love ❤
Lyrics / LetrasI've seen love come and I've seen love walk away
So many questions, will anybody stay?
It's been a hard year, so many nights in tears
All of the darkness, trying to fight my fears
Alone, so long alone
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know You
I'd probably fall off the edge
I don't know where I'd go if You ever let go
So keep me held in Your hands
I've started breathing, the weight is lifted here
With you it's easy, my head is finally clear
There's nothing missing when You are by my side
I took the long road, but now I realize
I'm home
With You, I'm home
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know You
I'd probably fall off the edge
I don't know where I'd go if You ever let go
So keep me held in Your hands
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know You
I'd probably fall off the edge
I don't know where I'd go if You ever let go
So keep me held in Your hands
You're my safe place, my hide away
You're my anchor, my saving grace
You're my constant, my steadiness
You're my shelter, my oxygen
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know You
Thank God I do
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know You
I'd probably fall off the edge
I don't know where I'd go if You ever let go
So keep me held in Your hands
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know You
Thank God I do

Beautiful people of the Hive open mic community, it's another lovely week 🥳
Hermosa gente de la comunidad de micrófono abierto Hive, es otra semana encantadora 🥳
This week brought with it a theme that promotes and celebrates the unity in our diversity. Traditional music is and always will be a thing as long as humans exist, because our traditions and immediate environment first influence our principles and core values before life experiences exert further changes in us. I'd have loved to make an entry of my traditional music featuring my father (he adores his music), but time and circumstances didn't permit. Perhaps I'll get to do that sometime.
Esta semana trajo consigo un tema que promueve y celebra la unidad en nuestra diversidad. La música tradicional existe y existirá siempre que exista el ser humano, porque nuestras tradiciones y nuestro entorno inmediato influyen primero en nuestros principios y valores fundamentales antes de que las experiencias de la vida ejerzan más cambios en nosotros. Me habría encantado hacer una entrada de música tradicional con mi padre (adora su música), pero el tiempo y las circunstancias no me lo permitieron. Quizá pueda hacerlo algún día.
Usually, making videos stresses me out, especially new songs within a limited time frame as I had with this particular entry, but I totally enjoyed the process of making this entry. I found a lot of things amusing about my choice of music, which I'll share in this post. Firstly, I made this entry this morning when, at dawn, I didn't know what to sing yet. But, thanks to our mutual friend, Google, she came through. One phrase: "African traditional music," and I got my answer.
Normalmente, hacer vídeos me estresa, sobre todo si se trata de canciones nuevas en un plazo de tiempo limitado, como me ocurrió con esta entrada en particular, pero disfruté totalmente del proceso de hacer esta entrada. Encontré muchas cosas divertidas en mi elección de música, que compartiré en este post. En primer lugar, hice esta entrada esta mañana cuando, al amanecer, aún no sabía qué cantar. Pero, gracias a nuestro amigo común, Google, apareció. Una frase: "Música tradicional africana", y ya tenía mi respuesta.
Drawn by the title, Malaika is a song originally written by a Tanzanian named Adam Salim for his love. It was first recorded by Fadhili Williams, but the music became popular when Miriam Makeba recorded it as well. To no surprise, her name pops up first when you make a search for the song on the internet, and my cover was made after her version. Popular people have since made covers and versions of the song.
Atraída por el título, Malaika es una canción escrita originalmente por un tanzano llamado Adam Salim para su amor. La grabó por primera vez Fadhili Williams, pero se hizo popular cuando Miriam Makeba también la grabó. No en vano, su nombre es el primero que aparece cuando se busca la canción en Internet, y mi versión se hizo después de la suya. Desde entonces, muchos han hecho versiones de la canción.
This song in English means "Angel, I love you angel. I would marry you, angel. I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have." I found this really amusing. Most African cultures accept payment of a bride price when two people are to get married. The groom's family pays the bride's according to a stipulated standard. As amusing as this song is, that was exactly the situation in which Adam Salim found himself. His sweetheart was eventually given away to a richer man, sadly.
Esta canción en inglés significa "Angel, I love you angel. Me casaría contigo, ángel. I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have " (Me ha hecho mucha gracia). La mayoría de las culturas africanas aceptan el pago de un precio por la novia cuando dos personas van a casarse. La familia del novio paga a la de la novia según una norma estipulada. Por divertida que sea esta canción, ésa era exactamente la situación en la que se encontraba Adam Salim. Lamentablemente, su novia acabó siendo entregada a un hombre más rico.
The second thing I found amusing about this song is the fact that in this part of the world where I am, this song has a different adaptation in English. Here we sing the same tune but with these lyrics: "My lifetime, I'll give God my lifetime. When I give God my lifetime, He'll take care of me. He'll never ever let me down; I'll give God my lifetime." A highly thoughtful person gave us the beauty of this tune with a much different meaning, but even I personally, love that adaptation. Imagining the process makes me laugh out loud though; I can imagine hearing Malaika and substituting my lifetime. They sure sound alike.
La segunda cosa que me hizo gracia de esta canción es el hecho de que en esta parte del mundo donde estoy, esta canción tiene una adaptación diferente en inglés. Aquí cantamos la misma melodía pero con esta letra: "Toda mi vida, le daré a Dios toda mi vida. Cuando le dé a Dios mi vida, Él cuidará de mí. Él nunca me defraudará; le daré a Dios mi vida entera". Una persona muy atenta nos regaló la belleza de esta melodía con un significado muy diferente, pero incluso a mí, personalmente, me encanta esa adaptación. Imaginarme el proceso me hace reír a carcajadas; me imagino oyendo Malaika y sustituyéndola por mi vida.
I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Thanks for making it this far!
Espero que haya disfrutado leyéndolo tanto como yo escribiéndolo. Gracias por llegar hasta aquí.
There's no beautiful community without you guys; keep being amazing ❤.

Hellooo lovely people of the Afritunes community 🥰. Congratulations and happy anniversary to everyone🥳. I would've loved to wish us all in all african languages but then I remembered only Nigeria has over 500 languages already, this post would never end if I did.
This is my first entry this year and I'm glad to be a part of the anniversary 🥰, though time didn't permit me to do much. I love African music because it portrays a culture common to just us and would be recognized anywhere around the world as originally from Africa. Africa is blessed with a lot of things, the people in this community inclusive, kudos to @ksam and all the moderators who keep our community safe for us to thrive.
A bit ironic I'm smiling in my thumbnail right? Weird is cool sometimes 😂
I had quite a dilemma choosing a song for this week (all my african music seem to be archived somewhere in my head), but, my friend suggested this song and I have presented it my humble way. It's a heartbreak song, Asa tells the story of a love once healthy and thriving which gradually falls apart. Bibanke in Yoruba language means "if I cry". She says if I cry so hard (tears are flowing or it's raining), leave me alone. I interprete as an acceptance of grief, which an important stage on healing. She tells her ex-lover to leave her to mourn. Love lost is never a pretty thing but in all, we find expression to grow.
A brief shootout to fellow community members, @hopestylist, @ merit.ahama, @maryjacy, @benii, @sleemfit, @obaro, @jessicaossom, @wolfofnostreet, @ovey10 and everyone!, you guys are amazing 🔥🔥. Happy anniversary y'all 🥳❤
Thanks for making it this far! You live rent-free in my heart ❤

Hello, Hive open mic community; it's a beautiful week with a beautiful theme 🥳.
Hola, comunidad de micrófono abierto Hive; es una hermosa semana con un hermoso tema 🥳.
Sometime during the week, I was thinking to myself about how some values make up the core of our lives. I believe that faith, hope, and love (the greatest of all times) are at the heart of human life. I once did a study on these and discovered that all of these virtues are embedded in love; they are most often the different ways we express love. Love is much more than doting on one or a set of people; love is a virtue that influences most, if not every, of your actions. The way you love is reflected in the way you treat people and situations. Loyalty, bravery, and truth (authenticity) are also admirable virtues, virtues of a true warrior, which Mulan was. She was loyal to her family, brave enough to leave them to go to war, and true to herself. This song portrays the movie Mulan and the struggles of being a true symbol of what you represent within yourself and not just a figurehead.
En algún momento de la semana, estaba pensando en cómo algunos valores constituyen el núcleo de nuestras vidas. Creo que la fe, la esperanza y el amor (los más grandes de todos los tiempos) están en el corazón de la vida humana. Una vez hice un estudio sobre ellos y descubrí que todas estas virtudes están imbricadas en el amor; son, en la mayoría de los casos, las distintas formas en que expresamos el amor. El amor es mucho más que querer a una persona o a un grupo de personas; el amor es una virtud que influye en la mayoría, si no en todas, tus acciones. La forma en que amas se refleja en la forma en que tratas a las personas y las situaciones. La lealtad, la valentía y la verdad (autenticidad) son también virtudes admirables, virtudes de una verdadera guerrera, como era Mulán. Era leal a su familia, lo bastante valiente como para dejarlos e ir a la guerra, y fiel a sí misma. Esta canción retrata la película Mulán y las luchas por ser un verdadero símbolo de lo que representas en tu interior y no una mera figura.
We had so much fun making this collaboration, and it required so many takes as well 😂. This collaboration was @bobbydones' idea, and the song choice was his as well, brilliant, isn't it? I just had to listen once to fall in love with the music. It wasn't easy due to the lack of electricity supply, but here we are! And we hope you enjoy our presentation 🤗❤.
Nos divertimos mucho haciendo esta colaboración, y también requirió muchas tomas 😂. Esta colaboración fue idea de @bobbydones, y la elección de la canción también fue suya, brillante, ¿no? Solo tuve que escuchar una vez para enamorarme de la música. No fue fácil debido a la falta de suministro eléctrico, ¡pero aquí estamos! Y esperamos que disfrutéis de nuestra presentación 🤗❤.

Lyrics/LetrasWar is not freedomOver my shoulderI see a clearer viewAll for my family
Reason I'm breathing
Everything to lose
Should I ask myself in the water
What a warrior would do?
Tell me, underneath my armor
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Losing is easy
Winning takes bravery
I am a tiger's fool
Out in the open
No one to save me
The kindest of whispers are cruel
Should I ask myself in the water
What a warrior would do?
Tell me, underneath my armor
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Cold is the morning
Warm is the dream
Chasing the answers
'Til I can't sleep
Will I be stronger
Or will I be weak
When you're not with me?
Who am I without my armor?
Standing in my father's shoes
All I know is that it's harder
To be loyal, brave and true
La guerra no es libertadPor encima de mi hombroVeo una vista más claraTodo por mi familia
Razón por la que respiro
Todo por perder
¿Debería preguntarme en el agua
¿Qué haría un guerrero?
Dime, debajo de mi armadura
¿Soy leal, valiente y verdadero?
¿Soy leal, valiente y verdadero?
Perder es fácil
Ganar requiere valentía
Soy el tonto de un tigre
A la intemperie
Nadie puede salvarme
Los susurros más amables son crueles
¿Debería preguntarme en el agua
¿Qué haría un guerrero?
Dime, bajo mi armadura
¿Soy leal, valiente y verdadero?
¿Soy leal, valiente y verdadero?
Fría es la mañana
Cálido es el sueño
Persiguiendo las respuestas
Hasta que no pueda dormir
Seré más fuerte
O seré débil
Cuando no estés conmigo?
¿Quién soy sin mi armadura?
De pie en los zapatos de mi padre
Todo lo que sé es que es más difícil
Ser leal, valiente y verdadero

Hello, Hive open mic community; it's a beautiful week with a beautiful theme 🥳.
Hola, comunidad de micrófono abierto Hive; es una hermosa semana con un hermoso tema 🥳.
Sometime during the week, I was thinking to myself about how some values make up the core of our lives. I believe that faith, hope, and love (the greatest of all times) are at the heart of human life. I once did a study on these and discovered that all of these virtues are embedded in love; they are most often the different ways we express love. Love is much more than doting on one or a set of people; love is a virtue that influences most, if not every, of your actions. The way you love is reflected in the way you treat people and situations. Loyalty, bravery, and truth (authenticity) are also admirable virtues, virtues of a true warrior, which Mulan was. She was loyal to her family, brave enough to leave them to go to war, and true to herself. This song portrays the movie Mulan and the struggles of being a true symbol of what you represent within yourself and not just a figurehead.

This song choice was inspired by an Instagram reel. Unfortunately, I forgot to like the reel, or I'd have shared it in this post.Life is a journey in which many people are eager to tell you what to do with yours. The artist who sang this song, Colbie Caillat, mentioned that it was inspired by rejection and pressure to be what she isn't.
The song is obviously not about makeup; I'll love me a good makeover sometime. I even get my nails done every now and then.
I won't pass a chance to flaunt this beaut😍😂
The main message the song passes across is to make decisions and take actions independent of external pressure.
Relating to the theme of the week by our dearest friend @jessicaossom, the reel I mentioned seeing stated that instead of focusing on what people have to say about you and doing things because they said to, focus on what God says about you. Jesus instructs us to be the light of the world, a ray of sunshine wherever we go. That'd imply not refraining from kindness because it is perceived as stupidity or refraining from modesty in order to persuade people that you are knowledgeable about current events. Learn to be comfortable in your own skin and embrace what God says about you; that's fulfillment.
Español
Esta canción está inspirada en un vídeo de Instagram. Por desgracia, olvidé darle a me gusta al reel, o lo habría compartido en este post.
La vida es un viaje en el que mucha gente está deseando decirte qué hacer con el tuyo. La artista que cantó esta canción, Colbie Caillat, mencionó que se inspiró en el rechazo y la presión por ser lo que no es.
Obviamente, la canción no habla de maquillaje. Incluso me hago las uñas de vez en cuando.
No dejaré pasar la oportunidad de presumir de esta belleza😍😂
El principal mensaje que transmite la canción es que hay que tomar decisiones y actuar independientemente de las presiones externas.
En relación con el tema de la semana de nuestra queridísima amiga @jessicaossom, el rollo que mencioné ver decía que en lugar de centrarse en lo que la gente tiene que decir de ti y hacer las cosas porque te lo dicen, céntrate en lo que Dios dice de ti. Jesús nos instruye a ser la luz del mundo, un rayo de sol dondequiera que vayamos. Eso implicaría no abstenerse de la amabilidad porque se percibe como estupidez o abstenerse de la modestia para persuadir a la gente de que estás bien informado sobre la actualidad. Aprende a sentirte cómodo en tu propia piel y acepta lo que Dios dice de ti; eso es la plenitud.

Hello, Hive Open Mic! It's been a while 🤭...It's winter again (harmattan here), and it's so chilly already. I don't have a song this week, just as I don't have plans for the holidays 😂. But, there is something I'd love to share with my Hive family as a way of saying thanks to everyone for a wonderful year.
Every year, there's a talent hunt held in my university. I participated once about 3 years ago, but I didn't know to stay hydrated during this dry season, and a sore throat dropped me from the game. This year, I saw the flier last month and decided on the registration deadline. I wanted to keep my options open so if I eventually felt like participating, I wouldn't regret not registering when it was available. Thanks to my friend @monioluwa, he made sure I didn't bail on registering 😂. At the time I registered, he was the only one aware. During the first audition, my roommates learned about my decision. I had all yeses on the first audition, but I wasn't sure I'd continue any longer because I was super shy and my voice was quavering at some point, and the next audition was going to be at the motion ground! That meant everybody had access to the venue; everyone would see us. I almost freaked out at that point. My roommate had to remind me of the efforts I put in already. That made me feel like going, but I was pretty sure I wouldn't qualify because I didn't know how to face the crowd.
En-haddah is a name I've always admired. It means Well of Gladness.
Why En-haddah? I wanted a name that wouldn't make anyone guess it's me, I'd forgotten we'd use pictures also 🤦🏾♀️😂
We were asked to bring friends along for support, so I just had to inform some of my friends already. It wasn't easy, but I did it, and they came through. I learned that day that support from people you love helps with nervousness. I'm usually embarrassed to sing in front of these people, but knowing they were there helped boost my confidence, but this girl still forgot the lyrics. I was still so flustered that I forgot my lyrics; fortunately, I didn't have to sing for long. I got all yeses at this stage too, despite my shyness, which one of the judges corrected at the first audition. It was after this stage that the real work began.
We proceeded to the finals, and we were paired. At the finals, there would be two disqualifying stages: one with your partner and one with you alone before the final of the finals. I was paired with two great singers, and I knew there was little work for me. We had our first rehearsal on Saturday, the 10th of December, and I had a fun time. It was really amazing to bond with everyone. I laughed so hard there were tears in my eyes—that's a rare sight 😂. The next rehearsal was scheduled for Monday, December 12th. The instrumentalists didn't show up, and most of us were pissed because it was a waste of time. I was more pissed because I realized I was going to have a new partner because her partner dropped out of the competition. That was like starting over for me, but for her sake, I had to keep my cool. We were allowed to pick our song due to the peculiarities of the situation; that wasn't easy, but we did it.
There was another rehearsal on Wednesday; it was supposed to be a vigil, but security issues around the school currently made them change plans. In summary, we still had rehearsals up until the morning of the competition, which was on Friday, December 16th. I was not happy about the situation at all. @chosenfingers and @mayorkeys tried helping with rehearsals, but there was no time at all.
By Thursday, I was ready to drop everything and continue enjoying my life because I'd never been so stressed in my entire life. I wanted a grand dress, but I couldn't design one because of time, so I decided to use a makeshift petticoat. Lo and behold, the young lady I paid ruined my dress. I wasn't allowing it to get to me, so I asked her to fix it. When I reconsidered, I recognized that that might be a bigger disaster so I asked her to just undo it, I'd pay for the stress. Her rudeness caught me off guard. She asked me to undo it myself and send my account details so she could refund my money. Twas like a blow to my face. Here's someone I've never exchanged words with, just pleasantries. I tried being calm and explaining the situation, promising to pay her for the stress, but she said she didn't need my money. I was hurt and angry. The whole stress just came rushing at me. Hard Girl cried that day. She later came to explain herself, but I wasn't interested. I just asked her to do whatever she wanted and return my dress. My roommate, also a stylist just had to direct her on what to do. I still had to fix it up myself using pins and good ironing.
A friend of mine came around at that moment, and I'll never forget her for a long time. She assisted me with things I hadn't prepared for the competition, which relieved me of a lot of stress. I left for rehearsals with my glasses because I didn't want unnecessary questions about my puffy eyes. I guess I needed the tears, because I didn't feel bad after that. not even when I didn't get to rehearse one of my songs. I went to the competition with the consolation that I was going to enjoy myself and clap for the winners. I was already apologizing to my friends and family in my head because I wasn't going to kill myself. Another lesson, don't be ashamed to cry, it's sometimes what you need.
All this while, my manager was constantly in touch. In fact, we cried together. He sent the tears virtually. On Friday morning, something happened. If I had been a minute late, it would have altered the course of my entire life. Perhaps I'll share that someday, but that day made me grateful to the Holy Spirit and to God for the gift of friends. That happening made me late to the competition, but I wasn't a bit anxious.
It wasn't just a competition; it was a series of little victories for me. I learned to trust; I learned to cry; I learned to hear God; I learned to cope outside my comfort zone; and I learned to persevere and enjoy the process. Most of all, I learned to share the process with people around me, not just the victories. It was the perfect Christmas gift.
At the end of the competition, I emerged as the first runner-up. It was a close call, but I didn't have enough votes (the voting process was super tedious, and I didn't stress it enough to my friends).
It was a great competition, I met several awesome people, and I learned the power of friendships.
Thanks to Hive, I had support from great friends like @mayorkeys, @bobbydones, even @josediccus was ready to bring the fan base from Lagos😂. @chosenfingers is the best manager you can ever get; you don't get a chance to think about giving up. In fact, he had a buyer ready for the land prize even before we got it. And, thanks to @olujay, the video above will give you a taste of the competition. If you ever need a cheerleader, Olujay is the best there is; don't look too far 😂 (you can tell from the videos). @babymoyin and @joshuajessie were there to share the moment as well. You all are amazing people 🤗❤.
Finally, big thanks to Hive Open Mic; you all make me confident in my music and have been instrumental in my growth. I once asked @obaro how he keeps getting better, and he said he does nothing special, just the usual Hive videos, I now understand and can say the same. All songs I did for the competition were influenced by my entries here. I never imagined being brave enough to rap in front of a crowd. Thank you, Hive Open Mic; it's been a ride 😌❤.

Hello Hive Open Mic 🥳🥳🥳. Hii friends, it's so cool participating this week.
It's that time of the year again: when you either choose to lament the end of another year or count your blessings. I was feeling like the former until I had the opportunity to be in a meeting this weekend and I was reminded of the awesome things that happened to me this year. Hive and you all being one of my greatest blessings this year 🥳.
A friend asked me a question yesterday. He said this 👇🏾
I had already answered before I actually thought about it. I give thanks always but sometimes, some realities hit you and you wonder yourself. The people in my life is just one of the many favours I receive from God daily. I feel like every person, every circumstance I come across is specially orchestrated by God and the bigger picture, even the little I've seen is so beautiful. Bible says all things work together for our good and I can testify that is absolutely true.
I've partaken of favours I never deemed possible and even the ones that seem pretty normal, there's the undeniable evidence of God's hand. Over the years, this has taught me that God's love is consistent. A love that consistent is beyond magical.
Thanks for visiting my blog once again, you are the best! ❤
LyricsChorus
And I could thank, my lucky stars
But that's not where, my blessings are
No they come from, the Father's heart
Not the sky, not chance, but truth is
I'm not lucky, I'm loved
I'm not lucky, I'm loved
I'm not lucky, I'm loved
I'm not lucky, I'm loved

Helloo wonderful people of the Afritunes community 🤗. It's been a while in this space, no thanks to school stress. You forgot I'm a student? Yeahh, I forgot too until I was forced back to reality a month ago. The stress hits different this time, like a new student was just birthed in me.
It's a beautiful Sunday and a month since I made this video. I had some initial difficulties editing the video and dumped it for weeks. I was able to finalize since I'm finally getting settled four weeks into the semester.
Like most people, I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it and recognized the undeniable touch of a Nigerian on the music. From his singing, it wasn't difficult to place Limoblaze's nationality even before hearing his name. I heard several remixes of songs like Jireh, Oceans especially, there are like a million remixes already but I can say that this is one of my favorite remixes ever. And I know a lot of people feel the same. Making this video was so much fun for me and I'll be listening to this for a long time. I hope you enjoyed listening as well?
@josediccus, @olujay, @monica-ene, @hopestylist, @merit.ahama, @onos-f, @maryjacy, @chosenfingers because you all like to be tagged, here's one for you 🤗❤. Thnaks for your support always, lots of love ❤😍💖💗💓💞💕❣
Thanks for watching. You live rent free in my heart ❤❤❤

Hello friends 🤗❤. It's another beautiful week in the Hive Open Mic community.
The theme fight oppression is a beautiful and insightful theme by @. As the world is advancing so are some social vices. Oppression can be cruelty or slavery, it can also be internal turmoil.
![[RNFetchBlobTmp_0bnjlyuku3rn2bjzpjltjbe.jpg]]
In every society, there is an unwritten strata. One thing I've observed that makes all the difference in these strata is the mindset. These days I see people justify their own wrongdoings, yet castigate and look down on other people who are sometimes, better morally than they are. This saddens me a lot and made me decide to hold my head up high wherever I find myself and stand for what I believe. And in cases when I can, help others fight against it as well. This has often gotten me in bad books with certain people, but I won't be oppressed or be a party to oppression.
![[hive dividers-02 1.png]]
Harriet Tubman was a young girl when she ran away from the home of her master and the rest of her family. Her master wasn't acknowledging the promise his father made to Harriet's parents that her generation would be free, so Harriet decided to take her own freedom in her own hands.
She succeeded at that and proceeded to help several other blacks. She stood her ground against the unfair ownership of her destiny. Despite being alone, she helped several people break free from slavery.
Finally, never let yourself be subject to worry or internal pressure. Stand your ground and stay positive!
Thanks For Watching. You Live Rent-free In My Heart 🤗❤

Lyrics I been walkin'
With my face turned to the sun
Weight on my shoulders
A bullet in my gun
Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head
Just in case I have to run
I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night
That's when I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I can feel it in my bones
Early in the mornin'
Before the sun begins to shine
We're gonna start movin'
Towards that separating line
I'm wadin' through muddy waters
You know I got a made-up mind
And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation
And I'll fight with the strength that I got until I die
So I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
And I know what's around the bend
Might be hard to face 'cause I'm alone
And I just might fail
But Lord knows I tried
Sure as stars fill up the sky
Stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Do you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
I hear freedom calling
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I can feel it in my bones
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you

Hii friendss, it's a beautiful week in Hive open mic community 🥳, one filled with "opportunities" 😂. Thank you, Hive Open Mic, for the honour given to me to choose the theme for this week. So far, I've seen so many beautiful entries and learned a lot about opportunities. My dad used to say something to us: It's "now or later," not "now or never," meaning opportunities will always come around and it's up to you to discern which to take and when. This is not a call to mediocrity; it's just an enlightenment on how to maximise opportunities that come our way. So we keep on keeping on, hoping for the best and, with God's help, making beautiful lives for ourselves.
Like I mentioned in my intro, I feel Hive has given me priceless opportunities. Being on Hive has opened my eyes to a lot of possibilities and has actually made me more confident in the person I am and am becoming. This would've taken a lot longer without this platform. I might as well turn this post into a vote of thanks 🤣. Certain people I met through Hive are already near and dear to my heart, and if I start making a list eh.... The love and support warms my heart 🥰🤗.
@olujay, @josediccus, @jaydr, @hopestylist, @monica-ene, @merit.ahama, @maryjacy, @onos-f y'all are absolutely wonderful people 🤗🤗, thanks for always! 🤗❤️
Thanks for watching my video, you live rent-free in my heart 🤗❤️
Hola amigos, es una hermosa semana en la comunidad de micrófono abierto Hive 🥳, una llena de "oportunidades" 😂. Gracias, Hive Open Mic, por el honor que me han dado de elegir el tema de esta semana. Hasta ahora, he visto tantas entradas hermosas y he aprendido mucho sobre las oportunidades.
Mi padre solía decirnos algo: Es "ahora o después", no "ahora o nunca", lo que significa que las oportunidades siempre aparecerán y depende de ti discernir cuáles tomar y cuándo. Esto no es un llamamiento a la mediocridad; es sólo una iluminación sobre cómo maximizar las oportunidades que se nos presentan. Así que seguimos adelante, esperando lo mejor y, con la ayuda de Dios, haciendo vidas hermosas para nosotros mismos.
Como mencioné en mi introducción, creo que Hive me ha dado oportunidades inestimables. Estar en Hive me ha abierto los ojos a un montón de posibilidades y me ha hecho confiar más en la persona que soy y en la que me estoy convirtiendo. Esto me habría llevado mucho más tiempo sin esta plataforma. También podría convertir este post en un voto de agradecimiento 🤣. Ciertas personas que conocí a través de Hive ya están cerca de mi corazón, y si empiezo a hacer una lista eh.... El cariño y el apoyo me calienta el corazón 🥰🤗.
@olujay, @josediccus, @jaydr, @hopestylist, @monica-ene, @merit.ahama, @maryjacy, @onos-f sois gente absolutamente maravillosa 🤗🤗, ¡gracias por siempre! 🤗❤️
Gracias por ver mi vídeo, vives libre de rentas en mi corazón 🤗❤️
Lyrics/ Letras
Under the glow of the very bright lights
I turn my face towards the warm night skies
And I am not afraid of a thousand eyes
When they're above five hundred smiles
Oh, I used to think
"What wouldn't I give
For a moment like this?"
This moment, this gift
Now look at me and this opportunity
It's standing right in front of me
But one thing I know, it's only part luck and so
I'm putting on my best show
Under the spotlight, I'm starting my life
Big dreams becoming real tonight
So look at me and this opportunity
You're witnessing my moment, you see?
My big opportunity
And now I'm right here and it's time
'Cause this is real, this is real and it's all mine
I'm not afraid, afraid to fly
When it's above five hundred smiles
Oh, I used to think
"What I wouldn't give
For a moment like this?"
This moment, this gift
And now look at me and this opportunity
Is standing right in front of me
But one thing I know, it's only part luck and so
I'm putting on my best show
Under the spotlight, I'm starting my life
Big dreams becoming real tonight
So, look at me and this opportunity
You're witnessing my moment, you see?
My big opportunity
I won't waste it
I guarantee
Bajo el resplandor de las luces muy brillantes vuelvo mi rostro hacia el cálido cielo nocturno Y no tengo miedo de mil ojos Cuando están por encima de quinientas sonrisas Oh, solía pensar
"¿Qué no daría yo
Por un momento como este"
Este momento, este regalo
Ahora mírame y esta oportunidad
Está delante de mí
Pero una cosa sé, es sólo parte de la suerte y así
Estoy dando mi mejor espectáculo
Bajo los focos, estoy empezando mi vida
Los grandes sueños se hacen realidad esta noche
Así que mírame y esta oportunidad
Estás siendo testigo de mi momento, ¿ves?
Mi gran oportunidad
Y ahora estoy aquí y es el momento
Porque esto es real, esto es real y es todo mío
No tengo miedo, miedo a volar
Cuando está por encima de quinientas sonrisas
Oh, solía pensar
"¿Qué no daría yo
Por un momento como este?"
Este momento, este regalo
Y ahora mírame y esta oportunidad
Está de pie justo en frente de mí
Pero una cosa sé, es sólo parte de la suerte y así
Estoy dando mi mejor espectáculo
Bajo los focos, estoy empezando mi vida
Los grandes sueños se hacen realidad esta noche
Así que, mírame y esta oportunidad
Estás siendo testigo de mi momento, ¿ves?
Mi gran oportunidad
No la desperdiciaré
Te garantizo

It's the first round of the Hive Music Festival; Week 1. I'm super glad to be participating, and this is my first entry to the community. Due to the general preference for original music, it's been a challenge for me to participate, but the generosity of the moderators has granted me access to this festival and I'm super glad.
About a week ago, I was wondering about something like this on Hive when I saw a mention by @obaro and @ksam, talking about this event. Reading through the regulations, I was encouraged to make my entry, and here I am 🥰.
Never Enough is the third song from the movie The Greatest Showman that I'm performing on Hive. That just shows how much of a masterpiece the movie is. Never Enough speaks of a love that surpasses anything anyone could wish for. A love desiring to share every moment. In one of his songs, Calum Scott says, "If everyone else had a love like us, they wouldn't call that place above heaven." Of course, if everyone was perfect (love is perfect), there wouldn't be heaven. If I were to make a wish that would come true for one day, it'd be for people to love for one day, just one, and experience just how powerful love can be.
I enjoy listening to this song every time I hear it, and I totally enjoyed making this video as well. I hope you enjoyed it. Please do well to leave your thoughts in the comments section.
Thanks for watching. You live rent free in my heart 🥰❤️
Lyrics I'm tryin' to hold my breath
Let it stay this way
Can't let this moment end
You set off a dream in me
Gettin' louder now
Can you hear it echoing?
Take my hand
Will you share this with me?
'Cause darling without you
All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough
For me
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me
For me
Never enough
Never enough
Never enough
For me
For me
For me
All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough
For me
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me
For me
Never enough
Never, never
Never enough
Never, never
Never enough
For me
For me
For me
For me

Hello friends in the Afritunes community🥳🥳. It's week 33 and another lovely weekend. It's my first entry and I'm super excited.
I've always tried to make entries but somehow, providence wouldn't permit until this day! Even this one, my eye don see shege on top this song 🤧😂, thank God for good friends.
This is one song I've know for a long time and have always wanted to do. In his live performance, Cobhams mentioned the quality of us learning to give thanks even in the most difficult situations. This day two years ago, Nigeria was in an uproar. The whole country was in mourning and it'll forever resonate in our minds. Tales of that day will be told to unborn children. Despite this, we learn to be grateful even in the most dreariest of situations.
Lyrics Have you read the papers do you hear what they say
Rising unemployment cost of living everyday
Is getting high
Another suicide bomber in a bus with thirteen kids
It kinda makes me wonder what those children ever did
Yet we still go to church
And sing shout to the Lord
And we lift up holy hands and we're reading His word
Now am sitting by my piano with nothing to play
But that doesn't change the fact that God is God anyway
So I sing bless ye the Lord
Through my trials and all my troubles
I have come with a heart of worship
For the gift of Your Son
For the grace to fight my battles
I have come to You with thanksgiving
Hear my humble cry see my broken spirit
But in every situation
I'll still choose to worship You uuu
Please forgive me this is not your normal worship song
I try to write a simple song that me and everyone can sing along
But i realize that there is something about praise
It shouldn't only come when all is seemingly okay
So when you start to cry like your life is a mess
Don't be scared don't be discouraged
It is only a test
Why don't you lift up your voice to the ears of your God
And release sweet smelling savor from your alabaster box
Singing bless ye the Lord
Through my trials and all my troubles
I have come with a heart of worship
For the gift of Your Son
For the grace to fight my battles
I have come to You with thanksgiving
Though the flowers die see the branches whither
But when troubles multiply
I'll still choose to worship You uuu
I worship You Almighty God
What a mighty God we serve
Who is there like You Jesus
Lover of my soul
Only God to whom all praise is due
Blessed be the
He will make a
You are highly oooo ooo
Bless ye the Lord
Through my trials and all my troubles
I have come with a heart of worship
For the gift of Your Son
For the grace to fight my battles
I have come to You with thanksgiving
Singing bless ye the Lord
Through my trials and all my troubles
I have come with a heart of worship
For the gift of Your Son
For the grace to fight my battles
I have come to You with thanks giving
Hear my humble cry see my broken spirit
But in every situation
I'll still choose to worship You
Only You

Hello friends 🤗❤️, it's hive open mic week 130! And we're doing it different this time 🥰 I'm finally doing something I've always wanted to do: sing a song a capella. Though I didn't plan it well, please take me as I am.
So, I decided to sing this song. It's from a movie I enjoy: Harriett and it's my friend @monioluwa's favourite song from the movie. The movie is about Harriet Tubman, a courageous woman and important in the black history. Acted by Cynthia Erivo, I'll call the movie a banger.
Creativity is no easy task but deciding to go a capella this week has enabled me put to use some things I learned when working with @jaydr and @olujay. I enjoyed making this and I hope you enjoy it as well.
And to my friends, I'm here again 🤗🤗, thanks always for your support. Sometimes I wonder why @hopestylist and @merit.ahama are so kind but I realized today that it is actually genetic 😂🤣. My personal hypeman @josediccus 😂, @chosenfingers tech bro🤲🏿😂, @monica-ene, mama🤗💝, @onos-f 🤗, @maryjacy darling❤️🤗, thank you all!
And thank you for watching. This is my first a capella and I'd appreciate corrections and tips on how to get better. Thanks in advance! Sending you a virtual hug!
Hola amigos 🤗❤️, ¡es la semana 130 del micro abierto de la colmena! Y esta vez lo hacemos diferente 🥰. Por fin voy a hacer algo que siempre he querido hacer: cantar una canción a capella. Aunque no lo he planeado bien, por favor, tomadme como soy.
Así que he decidido cantar esta canción. Es de una película que me gusta: Harriett y es la canción favorita de mi amiga @monioluwa de la película. La película trata de Harriet Tubman, una mujer valiente e importante en la historia negra. Actuada por Cynthia Erivo, la película es un bombazo.
La creatividad no es una tarea fácil, pero decidirme por la música a capela esta semana me ha permitido poner en práctica algunas cosas que aprendí al trabajar con @jaydr y @olujay. He disfrutado haciendo esto y espero que vosotros también lo disfrutéis.
Y a mis amigos, ya estoy aquí de nuevo 🤗🤗, gracias siempre por vuestro apoyo. A veces me pregunto por qué @hopestylist y @merit.ahama son tan amables pero hoy me he dado cuenta de que en realidad es genético 😂🤣. Mi hipnotizador personal @josediccus 😂, @chosenfingers tech bro🤲🏿😂, @monica-ene, mama🤗💝, @onos-f 🤗, @maryjacy darling❤️🤗, ¡gracias a todos!
Y gracias a ustedes por mirar. Este es mi primer a capella y agradecería correcciones y consejos para mejorar. ¡Gracias de antemano! ¡Te envío un abrazo virtual!

When that pharaoh chariot comes
I'm gonna leave you
I'm bound for the Promised Land
I'm gonna leave you
I'm sorry I'm gonna leave you
Farewell, Oh farewell
But I'll meet you in the morning
Farewell, Oh farewell
I'll meet you in the morning
I'm bound for the Promised Land
On the other side of Jordan
Bound for the Promised Land
I'm sorry I'm gonna leave you
Farewell, Oh farewell
But I'll meet you in the morning
Farewell, Oh farewell
Oh oh, I'll meet you in the morning
Farewell, Oh farewell
Oh, I'll meet you in the morning
Farewell, Oh farewell...
Cuando llegue ese carro del faraón
Voy a dejarte
Me dirijo a la Tierra Prometida
Voy a dejarte
Lo siento, voy a dejarte
Adiós, oh, adiós
Pero me encontraré contigo por la mañana
Adiós, oh, adiós
Me reuniré contigo por la mañana
Me dirijo a la Tierra Prometida
Al otro lado del Jordán
Rumbo a la Tierra Prometida
Lo siento, voy a dejarte
Adiós, oh, adiós
Pero me reuniré contigo por la mañana
Adiós, Oh adiós
Oh oh, te veré por la mañana
Adiós, Oh adiós
Oh, me encontraré contigo por la mañana
Adiós, Oh adiós...

Hello friends 🤗❤️, it's another week in the hive open mic community.
I don't know if it's just me but this has been one long week. But it feels good (always) to be here. The theme for this week is Trust, a theme that requires thoughtfulness.
I've always found trust to be one of the most delicate aspects of human life. It's probably the peak of any kind of relationship.
Spirit lead me by Influence music is just one on the long list of music that expresses a believer's trust in God. Songs like this always serve as a reminder for me that faith and trust go hand-in-hand, so even when it all seems dreary, we keep trusting.
Here I come again friends 🤗 @olujay, @josediccus, @chosenfingers, @monica-ene, @merit.ahama, @hopestylist, @onos-f 🤗, for your support always ❤️🤗
And thank you for watching, lotss of love 🤗💖❤️💝💌
Hola amigos 🤗❤️, es una semana más en la comunidad del micro abierto de la colmena.
No sé si soy yo pero esta ha sido una semana larga. Pero se siente bien (siempre) estar aquí. El tema de esta semana es la confianza, un tema que requiere reflexión.
Siempre me ha parecido que la confianza es uno de los aspectos más delicados de la vida humana. Es probablemente la cima de cualquier tipo de relación.
La música Spirit lead me by Influence es una más de la larga lista de músicas que expresan la confianza de un creyente en Dios. Canciones como esta siempre me sirven como recordatorio de que la fe y la confianza van de la mano, así que incluso cuando todo parece lúgubre, seguimos confiando.
Aquí voy de nuevo amigos 🤗 @olujay, @josediccus, @chosenfingers, @jaydr, @maryjacy, @monica-ene, @merit.ahama, @hopestylist, @onos-f 🤗, gracias por su apoyo siempre ❤️🤗.
Y gracias a ustedes por ver, mucho amor 🤗💖❤️💝💌
Lyrics This is my worship
This is my offering
In every moment
I withhold nothing
I'm learning to trust You
Even when I can't see it
And even in suffering
I have to believe it
If You say "it's wrong", then I'll say "no"
If You say "release", I'm letting go
If You're in it with me, I'll begin
And when You say to jump, I'm diving in
If You say "be still", then I will wait
If You say to trust, I will obey
I don't wanna follow my own ways
I'm done chasing feelings
Spirit lead me
It felt like a burden
But once I could grasp it
You took me further
Further than I was asking
And simply to see You
It's worth it all
My life is an altar
Let Your fire fall
If You say "it's wrong", then I'll say "no"
If You say "release", I'm letting go
If You're in it with me, I'll begin
And when You say to jump, I'm diving in
If You say "be still", then I will wait
If You say to trust, I will obey
Teach me how to follow in Your ways
I'm done chasing feelings
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
When all hope is gone
And Your word is all I've got
I have to believe
You still bring water from the rocks
To satisfy my thirst
To love me at my worst
And even when I don't remember
You remind me of my worth
I don't trust my ways
I'm trading in my thoughts
I'd lay down everything
'Cause You're all that I want
I've landed on my knees
This is the cup You have for me
And even when it don't make sense
I'm gonna let Your Spirit lead
I'm gonna let Your Spirit lead (Spirit lead me)
I'm gonna let Your Spirit lead (Spirit lead me)
I'm gonna let Your Spirit lead (Spirit lead me)
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
If You say "it's wrong", then I'll say "no"
If You say "release", I'm letting go
If You're in it with me, I'll begin
And when You say to jump, I'm diving in
If You say "be still", then I will wait
If You say to trust, I will obey
You're the only truth, the life, the way
I'm done chasing feelings
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me
Spirit lead me

Ladies and gentlemen, it's Hive Open Mic week 128 🥂🥰
Talking about heartbreak, it's one topic we all have one thing or two to contribute. Breakfast as we Nigerians have termed it isn't necessarily a damaged relationship, it can arise from failed expectations too.
Often I see people say things like heartbreak won't stop them from loving, meaning,love is such a beautiful experience that you don't mind being down over and over again, to find the one for you.
Speaking for myself, the one time I was really heartbroken, I'm not sure I ever want to experience that again but living in the reality of that pain would hinder my growth, so anyway, I had to pick myself up and move. Not only did I discover that, I saw a lot of other things I would've been blind to if I didn't experience all that.
This is a song from the musical: The Greatest Showman. The same was the story of Barnum. He was in blind pursuit of ambition, forgot the point of his hustle and eventually realized he had lost what mattered most to him. If failure didn't set in, he wouldn't have but he eventually realized he had lost everything and he had to go make things right.
It's an honor making a video with the great @jaydr🥳💃🏽. I had a wonderful time making this collab with @jaydr. Wonderful is an understatement infact, it was fun! You can imagine how many times we had to film individually. I'm glad we could make this happen and we hope you enjoyed it! 🥂
It's a pleasure to have done this with you too, I recall when the idea started and we were wondering how to pull it through, I m glad thought became action and action produced results. To be sincere, I have considered doing a collab with many Artistes on Hive, my first was with @mipiano , how she shocked me with her awesome performance still awes me, now you made look like every bit of ease with butter. It was a pleasure and so much fun and I see us doing more soonest.
Like @sekani said, it wasn't an easy task to pull so we wanted to share some bloopers hehehe
Here was one time I jumped into singing her part heheh
Lyrics I saw the sun begin to dim
And felt that winter wind
Blow cold
A man learns who is there for him
When the glitter fades and the walls won't hold
'Cause from that rubble what remains
Can only be what's true
If all was lost
There's more I gained
'Cause it led me back to you
From now on
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
From now on
What's waited 'til tomorrow starts tonight
Tonight
Let this promise in me start
Like an anthem in my heart
From now on
From now on
I drank champagne with kings and queens
The politicians praised my name
But those were someone else's dreams
The pitfalls of the man I became
For years and years
I chased their cheers
A crazy speed of always needing more
But when I stop
And see you here
I remember who all this was for
And from now on
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
From now on
What's waited 'til tomorrow starts tonight
It starts tonight
And let this promise in me start
Like an anthem in my heart
From now on
From now on
From now on
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
From now on!
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
From now on!
And we will come back home
From now on!
Home again!
And we will come back home
From now on!
And we will come back home
From now on!
Yes!
Home again!
And we will come back home
From now on!
And we will come back home
From now on!
Home again!
From now on
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
From now on
What's waited 'til tomorrow starts tonight
It starts tonight
Let this promise in me start
Like an anthem in my heart
From now on
From now on
From now on
From now on
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
From now on
From now on
Home again!
From now on
From now on
Home again!

Heyy everyone 🤗, it's hive open mic week 127 💃🏽🥳
This week wasn't so easy, I almost found myself composing a song with the theme humility, should we call that singers' block? 😂
And now, I know you're probably thinking I'm obsessed with Lauren Diagle😂, maybe I am (not an obsession though) but recently, YouTube music has been bringing more of her songs my way and I'm loving her more.
This song expresses the exact words I'd love to say to God sometimes. Like @josediccus expressed in his post earlier this week:
when we're battling experiences such as this, it's always the lyrics of the song, we're more keyed into rather than the melody.
There are times when beyond the melody, the lyrics speak directly to your heart. Music is one of the most assuring ways to know you're never alone in whatever it is you're going through.
As a believer, there are times you get mad at yourself for doing some things, this song particularly speaks about that. But, it takes humility to admit you're wrong and actually ask for help. Humility is key to our lives just like @daniky sang in his entry this week.
Life is fleeting, always remember to walk circumspectly.
I'd like to express my gratitude to the moderators and everyone on hive open mic, I was delighted to see my name as the featured artist for the week 126, it was an awesome feeling. So that's how y'all feel? @jaydr, @chosenfingers, @obaro, @benii and other all-time wonderful artists!
To my friends @monioluwa, @josediccus, @olujay, @jaydr, @merit.ahama, @maryjacy 🤗, @monica-ene, everyone in fact, you all are the bestest🤗❤
Thank you for watching my video, one mighty hug for you 🤗❤
Hola a todos 🤗, es la semana 127 del micro abierto de la colmena 💃🏽🥳
Esta semana no fue tan fácil, casi me encuentro componiendo una canción con el tema humildad, ¿deberíamos llamarlo bloqueo de cantantes? 😂
Y ahora, sé que probablemente estés pensando que estoy obsesionada con Lauren Diagle😂, puede que lo esté (aunque no es una obsesión) pero últimamente, la música de YouTube me está trayendo más canciones suyas y la estoy amando más.
Esta canción expresa las palabras exactas que me gustaría decirle a Dios a veces. Como @josediccus expresó en su post a principios de esta semana:
cuando nos enfrentamos a experiencias como esta, siempre es la letra de la canción, en la que estamos más pendientes que de la melodía.
Hay veces que más allá de la melodía, la letra te habla directamente al corazón. La música es una de las formas más seguras de saber que nunca estás solo en lo que sea que estés pasando.
Como creyente, hay veces que te enojas contigo mismo por hacer algunas cosas, esta canción habla particularmente de eso. Pero, se necesita humildad para admitir que estás equivocado y pedir ayuda. La humildad es la clave de nuestras vidas, como cantó @daniky en su entrada esta semana.
La vida es efímera, recuerda siempre caminar con circunspección.
Me gustaría expresar mi gratitud a los moderadores y a todos los que participan en el micro abierto de la colmena, me encantó ver mi nombre como artista destacado de la semana 126, fue una sensación increíble. ¿Así es como os sentís todos? ¡@jaydr, @chosenfingers, @obaro, @benii y otros maravillosos artistas de todos los tiempos!
A todos en realidad, todos ustedes son los mejores🤗❤.
Gracias por ver mi video, un poderoso abrazo para ustedes 🤗❤.

Lyrics / Letras
Lord I offer up this rebel heart So stubborn and so restless from the start I don't wanna fight You anymore So take this rebel heart and make it Yours Father I no longer wanna run
You've broken my resistance with Your love
And drowned it underneath the crimson spill
So bend this rebel heart into Your will
I give it over to You
I give it over to You
Your love is like an arrow, straight and true
And now this rebel heart belongs to You
Help me lay the renegade to rest
Turn the stone inside me back to flesh
And hold me till my best defenses fall
And watch this rebel heart surrender all
I give it over to You
I give it over to You
Your love is like an arrow, straight and true
And now this rebel heart belongs to You
Oh take my life and let it be Yours
Oh take my life and let it be Yours
Oh take my life and let it be Yours
Oh take my life and let it be Yours
I give it over to You
I give it over to You
Your love is like an arrow, straight and true
And now this rebel heart belongs to You
Now this rebel heart belongs to You
Now this rebel heart belongs to You
Señor ofrezco este corazón rebelde Tan terco y tan inquieto desde el principio No quiero luchar más contra ti Así que toma este corazón rebelde y hazlo tuyo Padre, ya no quiero huir
Has roto mi resistencia con tu amor
Y lo ahogaste bajo el derrame carmesí
Así que doblega este corazón rebelde a tu voluntad
Lo entrego a ti
Te lo entrego a Ti
Tu amor es como una flecha, recta y verdadera
Y ahora este corazón rebelde te pertenece
Ayúdame a dejar descansar al renegado
Convierte la piedra dentro de mí en carne
Y sostenme hasta que mis mejores defensas caigan
Y mira cómo este corazón rebelde lo entrega todo
Te lo entrego a Ti
Te lo entrego a ti
Tu amor es como una flecha, recta y verdadera
Y ahora este corazón rebelde te pertenece
Oh, toma mi vida y déjala ser tuya
Oh, toma mi vida y déjala ser tuya
Oh, toma mi vida y déjala ser tuya
Oh, toma mi vida y déjala ser tuya
Te la entrego a ti
Te la entrego a ti
Tu amor es como una flecha, recta y verdadera
Y ahora este corazón rebelde te pertenece
Ahora este corazón rebelde te pertenece
Ahora este corazón rebelde te pertenece a Ti

Heyy everyone 🤗, it's another wonderful week 🥳 The theme this week is a very thoughtful one, courtesy @artmedina 🔥👏🏾.
One thing that distinguishes every individual from the rest is experience. No two people can have the exact same experiences, and, these experiences are part of the things that shape us. Trusting in the process is basically letting some things take natural course. That doesn't mean living life passively but doing the right things in the right time.
This love thingy, I've heard many people's opinions about it, the most hilarious I've heard is an 18 year old girl claiming no one would want to marry her the older she gets. I found that statement both funny and alarming. Of course it's funny but alarming because I feel she's not seeing anything else in her future, at least she's not focusing on anything else other than marriage. Everyone is entitled to what they think but I believe love is most beautiful when you're patient.
A thousand years by Christina Perri is one of those love songs that makes single people like me hopeful and enthusiastic about the future 😂. @chosenfingers is the love doctor, so please direct any of your questions at him, I'm just a love enthusiast. Perhaps @jaydr, @josediccus, @olujay, @merit.ahama and @hopestylist will have a few tips for you as well 😂.
Thanks for visiting my blog, you rock! ❤️🥰
Hola a todos 🤗, es otra semana maravillosa 🥳. El tema de esta semana es muy reflexivo, cortesía de @artmedina 🔥👏🏾.
Algo que distingue a cada individuo del resto es la experiencia. No hay dos personas que tengan exactamente las mismas experiencias, y, estas experiencias son parte de las cosas que nos forman. Confiar en el proceso es básicamente dejar que algunas cosas sigan su curso natural. Eso no significa vivir la vida de forma pasiva, sino hacer las cosas correctas en el momento adecuado.
Esto del amor, he escuchado las opiniones de mucha gente al respecto, la más hilarante que he escuchado es la de una chica de 18 años que afirmaba que nadie querría casarse con ella cuanto más mayor fuera. Esa afirmación me pareció divertida y alarmante a la vez. Claro que es gracioso pero alarmante porque siento que ella no está viendo nada más en su futuro, al menos no se está enfocando en otra cosa que no sea el matrimonio. Cada uno tiene derecho a lo que piensa pero creo que el amor es más bonito cuando se tiene paciencia.
A thousand years de Christina Perri es una de esas canciones de amor que hace que los solteros como yo tengamos esperanza y entusiasmo por el futuro 😂. @chosenfingers es el médico del amor, así que dirigidle cualquiera de vuestras preguntas, yo sólo soy un entusiasta del amor. Quizás @josediccus, @olujay, @merit.ahama y @hopestylist también tengan algunos consejos para ti 😂.
Gracias por visitar mi blog, ¡eres lo máximo! ❤️🥰
Lyrics / Letras
Heart beats fast Colours and promises How to be brave? How can I love when I'm afraid to fall? But watching you stand alone All of my doubt Suddenly goes away somehow One step closer
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer
One step closer
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
El corazón late rápido Colores y promesas ¿Cómo ser valiente? ¿Cómo puedo amar si tengo miedo de caer? Pero al ver que te quedas solo Toda mi duda De repente desaparece de alguna manera Un paso más cerca
He muerto cada día esperándote
Querida, no tengas miedo
Te he amado durante mil años
Te amaré por mil más
El tiempo se detiene
La belleza en todo lo que es
Seré valiente
No dejaré que nada me quite
Lo que está frente a mí
Cada aliento
Cada hora ha llegado a esto
Un paso más cerca
He muerto cada día esperándote
Cariño, no tengas miedo
Te he amado durante mil años
Te amaré por mil más
Y todo el tiempo creí que te encontraría
El tiempo me ha traído tu corazón
Te he amado durante mil años
Te amaré por mil años más
Un paso más cerca
Un paso más cerca
He muerto cada día esperándote
Querida, no tengas miedo
Te he amado durante mil años
Te amaré por mil más
Y todo el tiempo creí que te encontraría
El tiempo me ha traído tu corazón
Te he amado durante mil años
Te amaré por mil años más

Hello friends!
It's been a great week so far for me and I'm glad participating in the contest this week. Coincidentally, my whole week revolved around hope.
I am one person who easily feels overwhelmed and this week, I've been learning to get things done and not base my actions on my feelings, in specific instances of course. I was feeling quite overwhelmed this week and I reached out to some of my friends and I handled it way better than I have in previous instances.
One other thing that helps me when I feel overwhelmed, is reassuring myself in God's word and for me, music is just perfect for that. I use YouTube music usually, so, most of the songs in my playlist are curated specially, depending on my first choice of music. This is so comforting and therapeutic for me. Usually, I have Lauren Diagle, Zach Williams, Tasha Cobbs, Maverick city and some other great gospel artistes in my different songs mix.
Even before discovering YouTube music, You Say by Lauren Diagle has always been a song of comfort to me. It reminds me of my reality in Christ Jesus. When I feel down and uncertain about how things will go with me, God is saying the exact opposite, that I'm held, I'm loved and many other beautiful promises. And when He says all that, what's impossible? Absolutely nothing. I've come to learn that my feelings and ideas don't dictate my reality, God's word does. And His word says nothing is impossible for him so I need not worry anymore, because nothing is impossible for me.
I'm saying the same to you today, if God is for you, then 👇🏿
I appreciate my friends and supporters, what would I be without you all? @monioluwa, @chosenfingers, @josediccus🙌🏿 @olujay, @daniky, @mipiano, @fernanblog, @maryjacy, @thecuriousfool, @emrysjobber and everyone! I see you all! Thanks for always 😊.
You say is probably Lauren Diagle's most popular song and so far, I've not met anyone who doesn't like the song. Let me know if it's your favorite of her songs or you simply like it, in the comments section.
Thank you so much for watching my video and Happy Sunday 🥳. It's a wonderful week already! Enjoy!❤️
Español ¡Hola amigos!
Hasta ahora ha sido una gran semana para mí y me alegro de participar en el concurso de esta semana. Casualmente, toda mi semana ha girado en torno a la esperanza.
Soy una persona que se siente fácilmente abrumada y esta semana, he estado aprendiendo a hacer las cosas y a no basar mis acciones en mis sentimientos, en instancias específicas por supuesto. Esta semana me sentí bastante abrumada y recurrí a algunos de mis amigos y lo manejé mucho mejor que en ocasiones anteriores.
Otra cosa que me ayuda cuando me siento abrumada, es tranquilizarme con la palabra de Dios y para mí, la música es perfecta para eso. Suelo utilizar la música de YouTube, por lo que la mayoría de las canciones de mi lista de reproducción están seleccionadas especialmente, en función de mi primera elección de música. Esto es muy reconfortante y terapéutico para mí. Normalmente tengo a Lauren Diagle, Zach Williams, Tasha Cobbs, Maverick City y otros grandes artistas de gospel en mi mezcla de canciones.
Incluso antes de descubrir la música de YouTube, You Say de Lauren Diagle siempre ha sido una canción de consuelo para mí. Me recuerda mi realidad en Cristo Jesús. Cuando me siento deprimida e insegura sobre cómo me van a ir las cosas, Dios me dice exactamente lo contrario, que soy sostenida, que soy amada y muchas otras hermosas promesas. Y cuando Él dice todo eso, ¿qué es imposible? Absolutamente nada. He llegado a aprender que mis sentimientos e ideas no dictan mi realidad, la palabra de Dios lo hace. Y Su palabra dice que nada es imposible para Él, así que ya no tengo que preocuparme, porque nada es imposible para mí.
Lo mismo te digo hoy, si Dios es para ti, entonces 👇🏿
Agradezco a mis amigos y seguidores, ¿qué sería de mí sin todos ustedes? ¡@monioluwa, @chosenfingers, @josediccus🙌🏿 @olujay, @daniky, @mipiano, @fernanblog, @maryjacy, @thecuriousfool, @emrysjobber y todos! ¡Os veo a todos! Gracias por siempre 😊.
You say es probablemente la canción más popular de Lauren Diagle y hasta ahora, no he conocido a nadie que no le guste la canción. Hazme saber si es tu favorita de sus canciones o simplemente te gusta, en la sección de comentarios.
Muchas gracias por ver mi vídeo y feliz domingo 🥳. ¡Ya es una semana maravillosa! Que lo disfrutéis!❤️
Lyrics / Letras
I keep fighting voices in my mind that say I'm not enough Every single lie that tells me I will never measure up Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low? Remind me once again just who I am because I need to know Ooh oh
You say I am loved when I can't feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
And You say I am held when I am falling short
And when I don't belong, oh You say I am Yours
And I believe, (I) oh I believe
What You say of me (I)
I believe
The only thing that matters now is everything You think of me
In You I find my worth, in You I find my identity
Ooh oh
You say I am loved when I can't feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
And You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don't belong, oh You say I am Yours
And I believe, oh I believe
What You say of me
Oh, I believe
Taking all I have and now I'm laying it at Your feet
You'll have every failure God, You'll have every victory
Ooh oh
You say I am loved when I can't feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don't belong, oh You say I am Yours
And I believe, oh I believe
What You say of me
I believe
Oh I believe, oh
Yes I believe, oh
What You say of me
Oh I believe
Sigo luchando contra las voces en mi mente que dicen que no soy suficiente Cada mentira que me dice que nunca estaré a la altura ¿Soy más que la suma de todos los altos y bajos? Recuérdame una vez más quién soy porque necesito saberlo Ooh oh
Dices que soy amado cuando no puedo sentir nada
Dices que soy fuerte cuando pienso que soy débil
Y dices que soy sostenido cuando me estoy quedando corto
Y cuando no pertenezco, oh Tú dices que soy tuyo
Y creo, (yo) oh creo (yo)
Lo que dices de mí (yo)
Yo creo
Lo único que importa ahora es todo lo que Tú piensas de mí
En ti encuentro mi valor, en ti encuentro mi identidad
Ooh oh
Dices que soy amado cuando no puedo sentir nada
Dices que soy fuerte cuando pienso que soy débil
Y Tú dices que soy sostenido cuando me estoy quedando corto
Cuando no pertenezco, oh Tú dices que soy tuyo
Y creo, (yo) oh creo (yo)
Lo que dices de mí (yo)
Oh, yo creo
Tomando todo lo que tengo y ahora lo pongo a Tus pies
Tendrás cada fracaso Dios, tendrás cada victoria
Ooh oh
Dices que soy amado cuando no puedo sentir nada
Dices que soy fuerte cuando pienso que soy débil
Dices que soy sostenido cuando me estoy quedando corto
Cuando no pertenezco, oh Tú dices que soy tuyo
Y creo, (yo) oh creo (yo)
Lo que dices de mí (yo)
Yo creo
Oh, yo creo, oh
Sí, yo creo, oh
Lo que dices de mí
Oh, yo creo

Hello friends!
It's been a long week and it's so good to be here again. A big shout out to everyone who makes the time to share with us the musical part of their lives ❤❤.
Once again, our artists manage to give an awesome depiction of this week's theme moonshine by @anna-newkey. I find both the theme and its depiction really intriguing. In this work of art, I see a combination of loneliness and hope. Moonshine has always been related to love but there's also a sense of loneliness related to it as well. @babymoyin gave a beautiful cover of "Talking to the moon" by Bruno Mars, the lyrics of this song is a vivid picture of love, loneliness and persistent hope. This is the exact vibe "You are my sunshine" gives.
The last time I recollect listening to this song, was a time I was really heartbroken but listening to this song, it was like an embrace. Checking it out, once again, on YouTube during the week, I saw similar stories of losses in the comments section. My heartbreak then paled in comparison to the tales of loss many people had and they all found comfort in this song.
it is a sweet/bittersweet declaration of pure and simple love, with a simple yet powerful metaphor at its core. For that reason, “You Are My Sunshine” — in addition to being a lament, a lullaby, and a sing-along — has also become something of a secular hymn. The love it professes isn’t necessarily earthly or romantic; it could be spiritual or heavenly.
This is a review of the song by Salon.com.
Infact, some people have claimed the song has spiritual abilities, like in the 2013 Oklahoma tornado, some children in a daycare facility survived the disaster singing the song You are my Sunshine. The whole facility was destroyed but the children were totally unharmed.
Spiritual? I don't know about that. But this song, I'll say, is a musical masterpiece and I particularly enjoy Jasmine Thompson's cover of the song. You might enjoy it too, check it out here👇🏾
Thank you very much for watching my video ❤❤❤. I'd like to hear your own thoughts on the song in the comments section. Have a beautiful week!
Español ¡Hola amigos!
Ha sido una larga semana y es muy bueno estar aquí de nuevo. Un gran saludo a todos los que sacan tiempo para compartir con nosotros la parte musical de sus vidas ❤❤.

Una vez más, nuestros artistas consiguen dar una representación impresionante del tema de esta semana luz de luna por @anna-newkey. Me parece que tanto el tema como su representación son realmente intrigantes. En esta obra de arte, veo una combinación de soledad y esperanza. La luz de la luna siempre se ha relacionado con el amor, pero también hay una sensación de soledad relacionada con ella. @babymoyin hizo un hermoso cover de "Talking to the moon" de Bruno Mars, la letra de esta canción es una imagen vívida del amor, la soledad y la esperanza persistente. Esta es la misma sensación que transmite "You are my sunshine".
La última vez que recuerdo haber escuchado esta canción, fue un momento en el que tenía el corazón roto, pero al escuchar esta canción, fue como un abrazo. Al volver a escucharla en YouTube durante la semana, vi historias similares de pérdidas en la sección de comentarios. Mi angustia palideció entonces en comparación con las historias de pérdida de muchas personas y todas encontraron consuelo en esta canción.
Es una declaración dulce y agridulce de amor puro y simple, con una metáfora sencilla pero poderosa en su núcleo. Por eso, "You Are My Sunshine" -además de ser un lamento, una canción de cuna y un canto- se ha convertido en una especie de himno laico. El amor que profesa no es necesariamente terrenal o romántico; podría ser espiritual o celestial.
Esta es una reseña de la canción realizada por Salon.com.
De hecho, algunas personas han afirmado que la canción tiene habilidades espirituales, como en el tornado de Oklahoma de 2013, algunos niños de una guardería sobrevivieron al desastre cantando la canción You are my Sunshine. Toda la instalación quedó destruida pero los niños salieron totalmente ilesos.
¿Espiritual? No lo sé. Pero esta canción, diré, es una obra maestra de la música y me gusta especialmente la versión de Jasmine Thompson de la canción. Puede que tú también la disfrutes, compruébala aquí👇🏾
Muchas gracias por ver mi vídeo ❤❤❤. Me gustaría saber tu opinión sobre la canción en la sección de comentarios. ¡Que tengáis una bonita semana!
Lyrics / Letras
The other night, dear As I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear I was mistaken So I hung my head and I cried You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are gray
You'll never know, dear
How much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
I'll always love you
And make you happy
And nothing else could come between
But if you leave me to allow another
You'll have shattered all of my dreams
You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are gray
You'll never know, dear
How much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
La otra noche, querida Mientras dormía Soñé que te tenía en mis brazos Cuando me desperté, querida Me equivoqué Así que colgué mi cabeza y lloré Tú eres mi sol
Mi único sol
Me haces feliz
Cuando el cielo está gris
Nunca sabrás, querida
Lo mucho que te quiero
Por favor no me quites mi sol
Siempre te amaré
Y te haré feliz
Y nada más podría interponerse
Pero si me dejas para permitir a otro
Habrás destrozado todos mis sueños
Tú eres mi sol
Mi único sol
Me haces feliz
Cuando el cielo está gris
Nunca sabrás, querida
Lo mucho que te quiero
Por favor no me quites mi sol

Hello friendss
Feels great to be back! I went for a visit with family and couldn't make my entries but I'm back now, in great form. Many thanks to friends who reached out😊 @chosenfingers, na person you be, one cold zobo for you 🥤 and @daniky, thanks so much. Also, congratulations @jorge234nv on the arrival of your baby🥳.
My song choice might seem strange, especially as it seems like a lullaby, but here is why. A few years ago, in my senior year in high school, I came across Karen Kingsbury's books and became an addict (to her books). Karen Kingsbury is a Christian fiction author and in most, if not all, of her books, adoption is one of the key themes. Infact, she has 3 adopted children. Not a big deal? In this part of the world, it is a big deal. Adoption is not very common and is strange to most people here. Reading Karen's books enlightened me on adoption and it's invaluable impact on both individual and the society.
Source
Maybe from the movie Annie, is a silent cry or call it conversation, of an orphan girl desperate for love in form of her birth parents. There are many movies about the same topic these days which express the anger and silent cry for love children like this experience. So, my own idea of making a better world for all is reaching out to them in love. Not necessarily adopting but making them feel like a part of the society and make them feel wanted. I could never bear the feeling of being alone so no one should be left to feel that way. I believe love will guide them to make the right decisions and this will definitely impact the world at large.
Thanks for this awesome theme @daniky.
Español ¡Hola amigos!
¡Se siente muy bien estar de vuelta! Me fui de visita con la familia y no pude hacer mis entradas pero ya estoy de vuelta, en gran forma. Muchas gracias a los amigos que me tendieron la mano😊 @chosenfingers, na persona que seas, un zobo frío para ti 🥤 y @daniky, muchas gracias. Además, felicidades @jorge234nv por la llegada de tu bebé🥳.
Mi elección de canción puede parecer extraña, sobre todo porque parece una nana, pero aquí está el porqué. Hace unos años, en mi último año de instituto, conocí los libros de Karen Kingsbury y me convertí en una adicta (a sus libros). Karen Kingsbury es una autora de ficción cristiana y en la mayoría de sus libros, si no en todos, la adopción es uno de los temas clave. De hecho, tiene tres hijos adoptados. ¿No es gran cosa? En esta parte del mundo, sí lo es. La adopción no es muy común y es extraña para la mayoría de la gente aquí. La lectura de los libros de Karen me ha servido para entender la adopción y su valiosa repercusión tanto en el individuo como en la sociedad.

Tal vez de la película Annie, es un grito silencioso o llámalo conversación, de una niña huérfana desesperada por el amor en forma de sus padres biológicos. Hoy en día hay muchas películas sobre el mismo tema que expresan la rabia y el grito silencioso por el amor de los niños como esta experiencia. Así que mi idea de hacer un mundo mejor para todos es acercarme a ellos con amor. No necesariamente adoptar, sino hacer que se sientan parte de la sociedad y que se sientan queridos. Nunca pude soportar la sensación de estar sola, así que nadie debería sentirse así. Creo que el amor les guiará para que tomen las decisiones correctas y esto repercutirá definitivamente en el mundo en general.

Lyrics / Letras
Maybe far away
Or maybe real near by
He may be pouring her coffee
She may be straightening his tie!
Maybe in a house
All hidden by a hill
She's sitting playing piano
He's sitting paying a bill!
Betcha they're young
Betcha they're smart
Bet they collect things
Like ashtrays, and art!
Betcha they're good
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake
Was giving up me!
So maybe now it's time
And maybe when I wake
They'll be there calling me baby
Maybe
Betcha he reads
Betcha she sews
Maybe she's made me
A closet of clothes!
Maybe they're strict
As straight as a line
don't really care
As long as they're mine!
So maybe now this prayer's
The last one of it's kind
Won't you please come get your baby
Maybe?
Tal vez muy lejos O tal vez muy cerca Él puede estar sirviendo su café Ella puede estar enderezando su corbata Tal vez en una casa Toda escondida por una colina Ella está sentada tocando el piano
Él está sentado pagando una factura
Apuesto a que son jóvenes
Apuesto a que son inteligentes
Apuesto a que coleccionan cosas
Como ceniceros y arte
Apuesto a que son buenos
¿Por qué no iban a serlo?
Su único error
Fue renunciar a mí.
Así que tal vez ahora es el momento
Y tal vez cuando me despierte
Estarán allí llamándome bebé
Tal vez
Apuesto a que él lee
Apuesta a que ella cose
Tal vez ella me ha hecho
Un armario de ropa
Tal vez son estrictos
Tan rectos como una línea
no le importa realmente
¡Mientras sean míos!
Así que tal vez ahora esta oración es
La última de su tipo
No vendrás por favor a buscar a tu bebé
¿Quizás?

Hola amigos! Hello friends.
It's another Hive Open Mic week, with the theme "Prejudice" by @lisbeth26. A very relevant and brilliant topic. We can't discuss history today without considering some major events based on prejudice like apartheid in South Africa, the Nazi anti-Semitism. And these events have huge effects on humans, even till the present day. Deaths, enslavement, exilation, misinformation are some of these effects. Why should so many suffer because of one person's faulty sense of judgement?
On a lighter mood, prejudice is why some people sometime ago had the mindset that somehow, negroes didn't make the last stage of evolution and have a remnant of a tail somewhere hidden in their clothes.
Prejudice is not extinct yet, it's still very much present in the society. Discrimination based on gender, race, nationality, religion, etc are practical examples. People who were once discriminated against have done great things on history. How do you or the world get the best a person has to offer if you sentence them without experiencing who they are?
There's a lot wrong in this world and some might seem beyond our control. But we have to realize that to actually effect any kind of change on the world, we have to first deal with ourselves and eliminate genocidal mindsets. So, this is a call to heal put world and treat fellow humans right.
I had a good time shooting this video with my friends: Inioluwa and Success. Thank you guys.
A big shout out to everyone on Hive Open Mic and everyone who supports my posts, a big hug for you all
Español Es otra semana de Hive Open Mic, con el tema "Prejuicio" de @lisbeth26. Un tema muy relevante y brillante. No podemos hablar de historia hoy en día sin tener en cuenta algunos acontecimientos importantes basados en los prejuicios, como el apartheid en Sudáfrica o el antisemitismo nazi. Y estos acontecimientos tienen enormes efectos en los seres humanos, incluso hasta el día de hoy. Muertes, esclavitud, exilio, desinformación son algunos de estos efectos. ¿Por qué tienen que sufrir tantos por el sentido erróneo del juicio de una persona?
En un tono más ligero, el prejuicio es la razón por la que algunas personas, hace algún tiempo, tenían la idea de que, de alguna manera, los negros no llegaron a la última etapa de la evolución y tienen un remanente de cola en algún lugar escondido en su ropa.
Los prejuicios no se han extinguido todavía, siguen estando muy presentes en la sociedad. La discriminación por razón de sexo, raza, nacionalidad, religión, etc. son ejemplos prácticos. Las personas que en su día fueron discriminadas han hecho grandes cosas en la historia. ¿Cómo puedes tú o el mundo sacar lo mejor de una persona si la condenas sin experimentar lo que es?
Hay muchas cosas que están mal en este mundo y algunas pueden parecer fuera de nuestro control. Pero tenemos que darnos cuenta de que para efectuar cualquier tipo de cambio en el mundo, primero tenemos que tratar con nosotros mismos y eliminar las mentalidades genocidas. Así pues, este es un llamamiento a sanar el mundo y a tratar bien a nuestros semejantes.
Me lo pasé muy bien grabando este vídeo con mis amigos Inioluwa y Success. Gracias, chicos.
Un gran saludo a todos en Hive Open Mic y a todos los que apoyan mis posts, un gran abrazo para todos.
Lyrics
There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me
If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving
If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
So make a better world
Make a better world
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me
And the dream we were conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth, crucify its soul
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be God's glow
We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me
Hay un lugar en tu corazón Y sé que es el amor Y este lugar podría ser mucho más brillante que el mañana Y si realmente lo intentas Encontrarás que no hay necesidad de llorar En este lugar sentirás que no hay heridas ni penas Hay maneras de llegar allí
Si te preocupas lo suficiente por los vivos
Haz un poco de espacio
Haz un lugar mejor
Sana el mundo
Hazlo un lugar mejor
Para ti y para mí
Y para toda la raza humana
Hay gente muriendo
Si te preocupas lo suficiente por los vivos
Haz un lugar mejor
Para ti y para mí
Si quieres saber por qué
Hay un amor que no puede mentir
El amor es fuerte
Sólo se preocupa por dar con alegría
Si lo intentamos veremos
En esta dicha no podemos sentir
Miedo o temor
Dejamos de existir y empezamos a vivir
Entonces se siente que siempre
El amor es suficiente para que crezcamos
Así que haz un mundo mejor
Haz un mundo mejor
Sana el mundo
Hazlo un lugar mejor
Para ti y para mí
Y para toda la raza humana
Hay gente que está muriendo
Si te preocupas lo suficiente por los vivos
Haz un lugar mejor
Para ti y para mí
Y el sueño en el que fuimos concebidos
Revelará un rostro alegre
Y el mundo en el que una vez creímos
Volverá a brillar en gracia
Entonces por qué seguimos estrangulando la vida
Herimos esta tierra, crucificamos su alma
Aunque es evidente que
Este mundo es celestial
Ser el resplandor de Dios
Podríamos volar tan alto
Que nuestros espíritus nunca mueran
En mi corazón siento que todos ustedes son mis hermanos
Crear un mundo sin miedo
Juntos lloraremos lágrimas de felicidad
Ver a las naciones convertir sus espadas en rejas de arado
Podríamos realmente llegar allí
Si te preocuparas lo suficiente por los vivos
Haz un poco de espacio
Para hacer un lugar mejor
Sanar el mundo
Hacerlo un lugar mejor
Para ti y para mí
Y para toda la raza humana
Hay gente muriendo
Si te preocupas lo suficiente por los vivos
Haz un lugar mejor
Para ti y para mí
Hay gente muriendo
Si te preocupas lo suficiente por los vivos
Haz un lugar mejor
Para ti y para mí

Hello friends! It's Hive Open Mic Week 118 with the theme: Love Hurts by @khaleesii. We all have different love stories, some regretful and some happy. Sometimes we become estranged from people we love because of bad decisions and a thousand other reasons. Just like the lyrics of the song, departure of someone from your world leaves you feeling lonely and sad, it hurts so much sometimes we could never imagine living our lives without them. Thinking about things like this, occasionally makes me ask myself why humans can't just be without the emotions and drama and all, knowing within myself that I'd never actually wish to live like that. Despite the hurt, love is an aspect of life we wouldn't want to miss out. May you find love that'll stand by you at all times. Also, don't forget God loves you too. Thanks for visiting ❤️
¡Hola amigos! Es la semana 118 de Hive Open Mic con el tema: El amor duele por @. Todos tenemos diferentes historias de amor, algunas lamentables y otras felices. A veces nos alejamos de las personas que amamos por malas decisiones y por mil razones más. Al igual que la letra de la canción, la marcha de alguien de tu mundo te deja solo y triste, duele tanto que a veces no podríamos imaginarnos vivir nuestra vida sin ellos. Pensar en cosas como esta, de vez en cuando me hace preguntarme por qué los humanos no pueden simplemente estar sin las emociones y el drama y todo eso, sabiendo dentro de mí que nunca desearía vivir así. A pesar del dolor, el amor es un aspecto de la vida que no querríamos perder. Que encuentres un amor que esté a tu lado en todo momento. Además, no olvides que Dios también te ama. Gracias por visitarnos ❤️
Lyrics
If only you could see the tears
In the world you left behind
If only you could heal my heart just one more time
Even when I close my eyes
There's an image of your face
And once again I come to realise
You're a loss I can't replace
Soledad
It's the keeping for the lonely
Since the day that you were gone
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
In my heart, you were the only
And your memory lives on
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
Walking down the streets of Nothingville
Where our love was young and free
Can't believe just what an empty place it has come to be
I would give my life away
If that could only be the same
'Cause I can't still the voice inside of me
That is calling out your name
Soledad
It's the keeping for the lonely
Since the day that you were gone
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
In my heart, you were the only
And your memory lives on
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
Time will never change the things you told me
But after all, we're meant to be
Love will bring us back to you and me
If only you could see
Soledad
It's the keeping for the lonely
Since the day that you were gone (You were gone)
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
In my heart, you were the only
And your memory lives on
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
It's the keeping for the lonely (Keeping for the lonely)
Since the day that you were gone
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
In my heart, you were the only
And your memory lives on
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
Si pudieras ver las lágrimas En el mundo que dejaste atrás Si sólo pudieras curar mi corazón una vez más Incluso cuando cierro los ojos Hay una imagen de tu cara Y una vez más me doy cuenta Eres una pérdida que no puedo reemplazar Soledad
Es la guarda para los solitarios
Desde el día que te fuiste
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad
En mi corazón, tú eras la única
Y tu recuerdo sigue vivo
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad
Caminando por las calles de Nothingville
Donde nuestro amor era joven y libre
No puedo creer el lugar tan vacío que ha llegado a ser
Daría mi vida
Si eso pudiera ser lo mismo
Porque no puedo callar la voz dentro de mí
Que grita tu nombre
Soledad
Es la guarda para los solitarios
Desde el día que te fuiste
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad
En mi corazón, tú eras la única
Y tu recuerdo sigue vivo
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad
El tiempo nunca cambiará las cosas que me dijiste
Pero después de todo, estamos destinados a ser
El amor nos devolverá a ti y a mí
Si sólo pudieras ver
Soledad
Es la guarda para los solitarios
Desde el día que te fuiste (Te fuiste)
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad
En mi corazón, tú eras la única
Y tu recuerdo sigue vivo
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad
Es la guarda para los solitarios (Guarda para los solitarios)
Desde el día que te fuiste
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad
En mi corazón, tú eras la única
Y tu recuerdo sigue vivo
¿Por qué me dejaste?
Soledad

Hello friends. I'm so excited to participate in the contest this week. Friends are an underrated aspect of life, well, until you find the right ones (or lose them). We often misinterpret the concept of friendship, I feel friends, no matter the distance or frequency of communication, always want the best for you and they are people you can always depend on. Not the ones who would grab every opportunity to hurt you or the ones you can never count on for help.
This theme reminds me of an incident in my third year in secondary school. I was a good student but my mathematics teacher expected me to perform better in that particular assignment (even though I had a good score). His judgement was 12 strokes of cane; disadvantages of having teachers who have a personal relationship with your family🤦🏾♀️. At a point I got teary, I was looking around for who could help me beg for mercy when I noticed my closest friend at the time, girl was in tears 😂. As funny as it seemed, seeing her put me on the verge of tears. The man noticed her too and started laughing, he reduced the sentence anyway so mission accomplished😂. Sometimes, friends don't need words to communicate, they feel your pain and celebrate little wins with you. Though we don't talk as much now, we remain friends and talk once in a while.
I am always grateful for my friends because true friends are priceless and I have the best, no doubt. So this song is dedicated to my friends. You're the absolute best and I'm blessed to have you in my life. Life is much easier having the right people around and mine is no different. And to everyone who sees this, I wish you the best friends you can ever wish to have and may you find happiness in your relationships.
Kudos to @chosenfingers for such a thoughtful theme and a big shout out to everyone sharing their talents with us on Hive Open Mic, you're the real MVPs.
Hola amigos. Estoy muy emocionada de participar en el concurso de esta semana. Los amigos son un aspecto infravalorado de la vida, bueno, hasta que encuentras los adecuados (o los pierdes). A menudo malinterpretamos el concepto de amistad, yo siento que los amigos, sin importar la distancia o la frecuencia de comunicación, siempre quieren lo mejor para ti y son personas en las que siempre puedes confiar. No los que aprovechan cualquier oportunidad para hacerte daño o con los que nunca puedes contar para que te ayuden.
Este tema me recuerda un incidente en mi tercer año de secundaria. Yo era un buen estudiante, pero mi profesor de matemáticas esperaba que me desempeñara mejor en esa tarea en particular (a pesar de que tenía una buena puntuación). Su sentencia fue 12 golpes de caña; desventajas de tener profesores que tienen una relación personal con tu familia🤦🏾♀️. En un momento dado se me saltaron las lágrimas, estaba mirando a mi alrededor para ver quién podía ayudarme a pedir clemencia cuando me di cuenta de que mi mejor amiga en ese momento, la chica estaba llorando 😂. Por muy gracioso que pareciera, verla me puso al borde de las lágrimas. El hombre también se dio cuenta de ella y empezó a reírse, de todas formas redujo la condena así que misión cumplida😂. A veces, los amigos no necesitan palabras para comunicarse, sienten tu dolor y celebran las pequeñas victorias contigo. Aunque ahora no hablamos tanto, seguimos siendo amigos y hablamos de vez en cuando.
Siempre estoy agradecida por mis amigos porque los verdaderos amigos no tienen precio y yo tengo los mejores, sin duda. Así que esta canción está dedicada a mis amigos. Sois los mejores y tengo la suerte de teneros en mi vida. La vida es mucho más fácil teniendo a las personas adecuadas alrededor y la mía no es diferente. Y a todos los que vean esto, les deseo los mejores amigos que puedan desear tener y que encuentren la felicidad en sus relaciones.
Felicitaciones a @chosenfingers por un tema tan reflexivo y un gran saludo a todos los que comparten sus talentos con nosotros en Hive Open Mic, ustedes son los verdaderos MVP.
Lyrics
Just fight a little longer, my friend It's all worth it in the end But when you got nobody to turn to Just hold on and I'll find you I'll find you I'll find you Just hold on and I'll find you I'm hangin' on by a thread
And all I'm clinging to is prayers
And every breath is like a battle
I feel like I ain't come prepared
And death's knockin' on the front door
Pain's creepin' through the back
Fear's crawlin' through the windows
Waiting for 'em to attack
They say "Don't get bitter, get better"
I'm workin' on switchin' them letters
But tell God I'ma need a whole lotta hope keeping it together
I'm smilin' in everyone's face
I'm cryin' whenever they leave the room
They don't know the battle I face
They don't understand what I'm going through
The world tryna play with my soul
I'm just tryna find where to go
I'm tryna remember the way
I'm tryna get back to my home
But I can't do this on my own
That's why I'm just trusting in You
'Cause I don't know where else to go
And I don't know what else to do
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you got nobody to turn to
Just hold on and I'll find you
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you got nobody to turn to
Just hold on and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on and I'll find you
They say fear haunts
And pain hates
I say pain strengthens
And fear drives faith
And I don't know all of the outcomes
Don't know what happens tomorrow
But when that ocean of doubt comes
Don't let me drown in my sorrow
And don't let me stay at the bottom
I feel like this hole is too deep to climb
I've been lookin' for a way out
But I'll settle for a peace of mind
Picking up the pieces of my life and hopin' that I'll put together something right
Tell me all I got is all I need
Tell me you gon' help me stay and fight
The world tryna play with my soul
I'm just tryna find where to go
I'm tryna remember the way
I'm tryna get back to my home
But I can't do this on my own
That's why I'm just trusting in You
'Cause I don't know where else to go
And I don't know what else to do
No don't let the fear make you feel like you can't fight this on your own
You know I – I'll be there for you no matter where you go
You'll never be alone, no
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you got nobody to turn to
Just hold on and I'll find you
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you got nobody to turn to
Just hold on and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on and I'll find you
Lucha un poco más, amigo mío Al final todo vale la pena Pero cuando no tienes a nadie a quien recurrir Sólo aguanta y te encontraré Te encontraré Te encontraré Sólo aguanta y te encontraré Estoy colgando de un hilo
Y todo a lo que me aferro es a las oraciones
Y cada respiración es como una batalla
Siento que no he venido preparado
Y la muerte está llamando a la puerta principal
El dolor se arrastra por la espalda
El miedo se arrastra por las ventanas
Esperando a que ataquen
Dicen "No te amargues, mejórate"
Estoy trabajando en cambiar las cartas
Pero dile a Dios que necesitaré mucha esperanza para mantenerlo unido
Estoy sonriendo en la cara de todos
Estoy llorando cada vez que salen de la habitación
No saben la batalla a la que me enfrento
No entienden por lo que estoy pasando
El mundo intenta jugar con mi alma
Sólo estoy tratando de encontrar a dónde ir
Estoy tratando de recordar el camino
Estoy tratando de volver a mi casa
Pero no puedo hacer esto por mi cuenta
Es por eso que estoy confiando en ti
Porque no sé a dónde más ir
Y no sé qué más hacer
Lucha un poco más, amigo mío
Al final todo vale la pena
Pero cuando no tienes a nadie a quien recurrir
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré
Lucha un poco más, amigo mío
Todo vale la pena al final
Pero cuando no tienes a nadie a quien recurrir
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré
Te encontraré
Te encontraré
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré
Te encontraré
Te encontraré
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré
Dicen que el miedo persigue
Y el dolor odia
Yo digo que el dolor fortalece
Y el miedo impulsa la fe
Y no sé todos los resultados
No sé lo que pasará mañana
Pero cuando llegue ese océano de dudas
No dejes que me ahogue en mi dolor
Y no dejes que me quede en el fondo
Siento que este agujero es demasiado profundo para escalar
He estado buscando una salida
Pero me conformaré con una paz mental
Recogiendo los pedazos de mi vida y esperando que junte algo bien
Dime que todo lo que tengo es todo lo que necesito
Dime que me vas a ayudar a quedarme y a luchar
El mundo intenta jugar con mi alma
Sólo estoy tratando de encontrar a dónde ir
Estoy tratando de recordar el camino
Estoy tratando de volver a mi casa
Pero no puedo hacer esto por mi cuenta
Es por eso que estoy confiando en ti
Porque no sé a dónde más ir
Y no sé qué más hacer
No dejes que el miedo te haga sentir que no puedes luchar contra esto por ti mismo
Sabes que yo... estaré ahí para ti sin importar a dónde vayas
Nunca estarás solo, no
Sólo lucha un poco más, mi amigo
Todo vale la pena al final
Pero cuando no tienes a nadie a quien recurrir
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré
Sólo lucha un poco más, mi amigo
Todo vale la pena al final
Pero cuando no tienes a nadie a quien recurrir
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré
Te encontraré
Te encontraré
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré
Te encontraré
Te encontraré
Sólo aguanta y te encontraré

Welcome back to my vlog!🤗 It's another wonderful week🥳. Unlike some themes, I knew exactly what I was going to sing for this theme, Trumpet sound. Jesus culture is a group of gospel musicians and worshippers of the Bethel church. I discovered this song, Rooftops in my junior secondary school and I must say, listening to songs by Jesus Culture, Hillsong, Jamie Grace and many others, exposed me to an intimacy with God that I've enjoyed and I'm glad I discovered quite early.
The Aldrich and James cover of Rooftops is the first version I heard and fell in love with. Well, anyone would. I once read one of the God's general series and there was one general who encountered God and all he could say was "Hotdog, I got it!". Hilarious right?🤣. But that's exactly how I feel sometimes, like come on, hotdog, I got it! This song is just an expression like that, more in the lines, I got it, I acknowledge and I give it back. And nothing would give me greater joy than to have everyone around me have that same great feeling. I hope one day, you will have a taste of God and be left with nothing to say than "hotdog, I got it!". Thanks for visiting, you live rent-free in my heart 💗.
Bienvenidos de nuevo a mi vlog!🤗 Es otra maravillosa semana🥳. A diferencia de algunos temas, yo sabía exactamente lo que iba a cantar para este tema, Sonido de trompeta. Jesus culture es un grupo de músicos de gospel y adoradores de la iglesia Bethel. Descubrí esta canción, Rooftops en mi escuela secundaria y debo decir que escuchar canciones de Jesus Culture, Hillsong, Jamie Grace y muchos otros, me expuso a una intimidad con Dios que he disfrutado y me alegro de haber descubierto bastante pronto.
El [cover] de Aldrich y James (
) de Rooftops es la primera versión que escuché y de la que me enamoré. Bueno, cualquiera lo haría. Una vez leí una de las series de generales de Dios y había un general que se encontraba con Dios y lo único que podía decir era "¡Perro caliente, lo tengo!". Divertidísimo ¿verdad? 🤣. Pero así es exactamente como me siento a veces, como vamos, perrito caliente, ¡lo tengo! Esta canción es justo una expresión así, más en las líneas, lo tengo, lo reconozco y lo devuelvo. Y nada me alegraría más que todos los que me rodean tuvieran esa misma sensación. Espero que un día tengan el gusto de Dios y no les quede más que decir "¡caliente, lo tengo!". Gracias por visitarme, vives libre de rentas en mi corazón 💗.
Lyrics
Here I am before You
Falling in love and seeking Your truth
Knowing that Your perfect grace
Has brought me to this place
Because of You I freely live
My life to You, oh God, I give
So I stand before You, God
I lift my voice cause You set me free
So I shout out Your name, from the rooftops I proclaim
That I am Yours, I am Yours
All the good You've done for me
I lift up my hands for all to see
You're the only one
Who brings me to my knees
To share this love across the earth
The beauty of Your holy worth
So I kneel before You, God
I lift my hands cause You set me free
So I shout out Your name
From the rooftops I proclaim
That I am Yours, I am Yours
All that I am, I place into Your loving hands
And I am Yours, I am Yours
Here I am, I stand
With arms wide open
To the One, the Son
The everlasting God
The everlasting God
Here I am, I stand
With arms wide open
To the One, the Son
The everlasting God
The everlasting God
So I shout out Your name
From the rooftops I proclaim
That I am Yours, I am Yours
All that I am, I place into Your loving hands
And I am Yours, I am Yours
So I shout out Your name
From the rooftops I proclaim
That I am Yours, I am Yours
All that I am, I place into Your loving hands
And I am Yours, I am Yours
Aquí estoy ante Ti
Enamorado y buscando Tu verdad
Sabiendo que tu gracia perfecta
Me ha traído a este lugar
Por ti vivo libremente
Mi vida a ti, oh Dios, la doy
Así que me presento ante ti, Dios
Alzo mi voz porque Tú me liberaste
Así que grito Tu nombre, desde los tejados proclamo
Que soy tuyo, soy tuyo
Todo el bien que has hecho por mí
Alzo mis manos para que todos lo vean
Tú eres el único
Que me pone de rodillas
Para compartir este amor a través de la tierra
La belleza de tu santo valor
Así que me arrodillo ante Ti, Dios
Levanto mis manos porque Tú me liberas
Así que grito Tu nombre
Desde los tejados proclamo
Que soy tuyo, soy tuyo
Todo lo que soy, lo pongo en tus manos amorosas
Y soy tuyo, soy tuyo
Aquí estoy, estoy de pie
Con los brazos abiertos
Al Único, al Hijo
El Dios eterno
El Dios eterno
Aquí estoy, estoy de pie
Con los brazos abiertos
Al Único, el Hijo
El Dios eterno
El Dios eterno
Así que grito Tu nombre
Desde los tejados proclamo
Que soy tuyo, soy tuyo
Todo lo que soy, lo pongo en tus manos amorosas
Y soy tuyo, soy tuyo
Así que grito Tu nombre
Desde los tejados proclamo
Que soy tuyo, soy tuyo
Todo lo que soy, lo pongo en tus manos amorosas
Y soy tuyo, soy tuyo

Hello friends! It's a great pleasure participating in the contest this week, I was really undecided on what to sing until I decided to settle for this.
From the popular movie: The Lion King, Circle Of Life is a beautiful song written by Tim Rice and Elton John. As the writer of the lyrics of the song, Elton basically explained the lyrics to meaning life is full of ups and downs, full of different experiences common and some peculiar to each person. Also, from the lyrics, I believe it also means there's too many things in life but it's up to you to do with it what you will and within your limit.
So while you're making something of yourself, don't forget to experience the wonder of life.
Over time, there have been different versions of the song but this is the version by Lindiwe Mkhize and Lebo M.
Lyrics Nants ingonyama bagithi baba

From the day we arrive on the planet
And, blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
'Til we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle
The circle of life
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala (se-to-kwa!)

I discovered this song a few weeks ago and I've been listening to it nonstop for a while now. I enjoy the Spanish and Latin American cultures and I've been learning the language for a few years on and off (that's a story for another day😂). And so far, I'm loving every aspect of the culture I've come across. This particular genre, the salsa, is one of my favourites. One day I'll get the courage to display all the salsa steps I've been practising in my room.
Vivir mi vida by Marc Anthony is a spirit lifting and popular song. I hope you enjoyed it half as much as I enjoy listening to the original. My fingers are crossed to hear what you think of my Spanish singing skills in the comments section (glowing reviews I hope!😂). Thanks for watching!
Descubrí esta canción hace unas semanas y hace tiempo que la escucho sin parar. Me gusta la cultura española y latinoamericana y llevo unos años aprendiendo el idioma de forma intermitente (eso es una historia para otro día😂). Y hasta ahora, me están encantando todos los aspectos de la cultura que he encontrado. Este género en particular, la salsa, es uno de mis favoritos. Un día me animaré a mostrar todos los pasos de salsa que he practicado en mi habitación.
Vivir mi vida, de Marc Anthony, es una canción popular que levanta el espíritu. Espero que la hayas disfrutado la mitad de lo que yo disfruto escuchando la original. Cruzo los dedos para que me digáis lo que pensáis de mis habilidades para cantar en español en la sección de comentarios (¡espero que con buenas críticas!😂). ¡Gracias por verlo!

It's my birthday (28-05) and most importantly, I'm grateful for life. A lot is going on in Nigeria on a daily basis and if one is to actually consider all this, paranoia could keep you indoors for the rest of your life. I'm 20 now and I can't but wonder how many people my age and younger have lost their lives to shortcomings of the governance of this country. Just 2020, we had the #EndSars massacre in Lekki, Lagos. So many stories may never come to light, many stars cut short before they got a chance to shine. Dr. Chinelo and the other people killed in the train incident will forever live in our hearts. When we finally rise above all this, may we be here to tell the story. Rest on heroes ❤️
@ebingo wrote this beautiful song, accurately predicting the situation. Sometimes you just sit and ponder things going on around and the end of it all is a prayer to God that you get the chance to leave the country as soon as possible. Yet, we remain strong ❤️🤍.
Lyrics I can't keep holding on
To this small town
I've got to keep moving on
Before it all falls down
Now...
Thanks to @donirosayandi and @rosana6 for the instrumental tracks. And thanks to #openmic for this Global Harmony initiative. As a Nigerian myself, it feels good to be seen and acknowledged. To know we're not alone. Thank you!
Thanks for watching ❤️.

This song is a favourite song of myself and my brother. When I was much younger, on starry nights or when there is full moon in the sky, we'd go outside the house, sit side-by-side and watch the stars in the sky. Sometimes we have a lot to say, sometimes we just share earphones and watch in silence. We used to listen to this song on repeat and it's one of my favourite memories.
Though quite melancholic, the song holds a ray of hope that's equivalent, for me, to an embrace. Like you're almost certain someone is definitely talking back to you. Days when I feel lonely, I'd listen to the song and just feel optimistic.
Esta canción es una de las favoritas de mi hermano y yo. Cuando era mucho más joven, en las noches estrelladas o cuando hay luna llena en el cielo, salíamos de casa, nos sentábamos uno al lado del otro y observábamos las estrellas en el cielo. A veces teníamos mucho que decir, otras veces simplemente compartíamos los auriculares y observábamos en silencio. Solíamos escuchar esta canción repetidamente y es uno de mis recuerdos favoritos. Aunque es bastante melancólica, la canción encierra un rayo de esperanza que equivale, para mí, a un abrazo. Como si estuvieras casi seguro de que alguien te está respondiendo. Los días en que me siento solo, escucho la canción y me siento optimista.
Lyrics I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away
I want you back, I want you back
My neighbors think I'm crazy
But they don't understand
You're all I had, you're all I had
At night, when the stars light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the moon
Trying to get to you
In hopes you're on the other side talking to me too
Or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon?
Oh-oh
I'm feeling like I'm famous, the talk of the town
They say I've gone mad
Yeah, I've gone mad
But they don't know what I know
'Cause when the sun goes down, someone's talking back
Yeah, they're talking back, oh
At night, when the stars light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the moon
Trying to get to you
In hopes you're on the other side talking to me too
Or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Do you ever hear me calling?
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah) oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
'Cause every night, I'm talking to the moon
Still trying to get to you
In hopes you're on the other side talking to me too
Or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon?

Flying Without Wings originally sung by Westlife is a personal favorite. In relation to the theme of the week, the song talks about finding the special thing that completes us. We sometimes have that special thing within our grasp and yet we can't find words to describe how it feels or what exactly it is. The words to describe are undisclosed, even to us, at that moment but we know it's real. It might not necessarily be found in a romantic relationship, even in friendships or in solitude sometimes. And for some of us, we have it in our faith also. In case you're still searching for that one thing, I wish you all the best ❤️.
Lyrics
Everybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be
Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary nights
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry
You find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
So, impossible as they may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
'Cause who's to know
Which one you let go
Would have made you complete
Well, for me it's waking up beside you
To watch the sunrise on your face
To know that I can say, "I love you"
In any given time or place
It's little things that only I know
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
'Cause you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings
And you're the place my life begins
And you'll be where it ends
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring
I'm flying without wings

Hi friends in the Hive Open Mic community. It's another wonderful week with the theme Brave Minds by @obaro.
This is me, (originally sung by Keala Settle and the Greatest Showman ensemble), is a song from the movie The Greatest Showman. It was sung by an ensemble of social outcasts, all brought together by one man.
One thing I observed in myself and people around me is the fact that we try so hard to change who we are. Our looks, our personalities and many other things we don't seem to like about ourselves. Eventually, we come to realise that to achieve our goals and to find the love we all desire, we have to accept who we are, build on that and make something of our lives. Often I've heard that your difference is your greatest strength, but it's not easy embracing that difference. It takes bravery and courage to accept who you are. And that is what we are, brave minds, exploring and learning to accept ourselves daily in order to make something of our lives and make our own pact on the world.
This is to everyone feeling alone or dejected, you're never alone. You're strong and beautiful. You're a masterpiece, see it and live it.
Lyrics I am not a stranger to the dark
Hide away, they say
'Cause we don't want your broken parts
I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars
Run away, they say
No one'll love you as you are
But I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
We are bursting through the barricades and
Reaching for the sun, we are warriors
Yeah, that's what we've become (yeah, that's what we've become)
I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh-oh-oh-oh
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
This is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
This is brave, this is bruised
This is who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh-oh-oh-oh
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
This is me

Hii friends in the Hive Open Mic community. It's a real pleasure participating in this contest. My name is Gladness, aka Sekani and this is my first time participating in Hive open mic contests.
Bicycle is an intriguing theme but not so easy either. I stumbled on this song by chance and I loved it, listening to it for that very first time. It talks about how there are nine million bicycles in Beijing. According to research, an average family in Beijing owns bicycles. And annually, about 20 million bicycles are sold in average domestically. I would love to visit Beijing just to see the crowd of cyclers in the morning. I'm sure it'd be a very pretty sight.
I hope you enjoy the song ❤️
Lyrics There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you till I die
We are twelve billion light years from the edge
That's a guess
No-one can ever say it's true
But I know that I will always be with you
I'm warmed by the fire of your love everyday
So don't call me a liar
Just believe everything that I say
There are six billion people in the world
More or less
And it makes me feel quite small
But you're the one I love the most of all
We're high on the wire
With the world in our sight
And I'll never tire
Of the love that you give me every night
There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a Fact
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you till I die
And there are nine million bicycles in Beijing
And you know that I will love you till I die!
