Look Before You Love
Take a look before
My dear
I have no love to share
Not a heart to care
Just a broken hope to mend

Naked
Naked I came
And naked shall I return
If it be the will of Allah
That I go today
Then let it not pass me by.

Rhyme
This is a rhyme I rhyme
And made rhyme
'Cause with you I like to rhyme
I want to give my best
Before I go to rest

A New Life
The midwife
Together with my wife
Strove to bring us a life
(A new life)
To care for our lives
After our strife.

Hell [ They Want Me Dead ]
Hell and the
People of Hell
Want me dead,
They lure me
Each day with
Things of the flesh.
And win for me
Nothing but death.

This city of love,

Police is your Friend
The police is your friend,
They will tell you in Nigeria
Though they never spare the naira
When you are caught in their lair.

Love Serenade
Love serenade
I sang at your
Window every night
My love serenade
And my reassurance
Of my love
My love which knows
No other love.

Time For A Rhyme
I guess its time
I make a rhyme
I dont care if this is art
But it is from my heart
This, I do with pleasure
For you are my treasure.

1984
Ninety eighty four
I was brought here
And now I struggle
To get there.
All of my years are
Composed of strife,
A Strife for survival.
