Hello guys… So in my previous post where I announced the release of Give Me Life I said little about how the song came about. Well, the song came out of pain and fantasies, song’s actually deeper than you think. (I’ll explain that later in future)
But for now let me actually share with you the words to the song itself.
The song was written in Nigerian pidgin (brokin), also written in English language, swahili, hausa, igbo, yoruba and Afrikaans.
