about

I re-consider my blackness and ask 'Can I rest my heaviness, can you hold it in your heart'. We built ideas that were reminiscent of songs melodies we heard in traditional Nigerian Churches, the result was Glorious.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Can I rest my heaviness
Oh can you hold it in your heart
Can I look to you
Walk with me through the darkest path
Candle in the night I hold you
Burning sun to my night
Walk with me shine bright oh
Dance with me shine bright

Chorus:
We are glorious
We are chosen
Found shelter in the golden
Build up our holy city
Can’t shake it down
Like Jericho

We are glorious
We are chosen
Found shelter in the golden
Build up our holy city
Can’t shake it down
Like Jericho

Verse 2:
Will you catch me when I fall
I’m falling far from the ground
Can I take my refuge
Carry me as your own
I will hold my head
Can you place my crown
Walk with me shine bright oh
Dance with me shine bright

Chorus

Middle 8:
Floating we float up high
Standing we raise the tide
Under the sun we smile
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Floating we float up high
Standing we raise the tide
Under the sun we smile
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Chorus

Current Mood: Melancholic Afrobeat Vibes here.

My music reflects the pace at which my heart beats in the same way ‘life is locked into a rhythm’, There is no better feeling than dancing to the sound of your own drum - this is my story. ... more
