Song Of The Day: Naeto C and Asa- Share My Blessings.


To me, this is the best song Naeto C ever put his voice on. As much as I love his other works, they all pale in Comparison to this. I believe it's the "Asa Factor" or how else do I describe it.
He did something he has never done on any of his songs. The Lyrics were educational, Positive, Moral and Inspirational.
But each time Asa takes her part, Most especially the bridge, the feeling is simply "Out of this World."
First time I listened to this song, I felt goose-bumps (This hardly happens to me) That was how powerful and enchanting it was, I had to listen to it for the rest of the day.
Practically speaking, I actually put it on replay for over 12 Hours in one day. Take a few minutes to listen to it, you may learn a lesson or two from it (I learned to value everyone I love.)
Feel free to share with us what you learned from the song.



LYRICS:
Naeto C

All white kaftan like the stripe on a tom tom
See how we got famous where we come from
walahi it's from teaspoons to lump sums - What a conundrum!
All I did was make plans like when ABC bus comes
Now they saying tread softly with caution
You attract the wrong people when they know about your fortune
I’m worried maybe that will be my portion.
I don’t need a new cut to feel level headed
My experience has justified where I’m headed
So when they talk about the things that I do wrong
I just pat them on the back like a new born
Cos that’s the rumor starts to spread like a bed sheet
I’m calculating money on excel spread sheets.
I’m too blessed to be stressed
So I’m giving out some love cos I'm getting it in excess
Now that you could respect.

Hook

It’s moving over me
It’s taking over me
And I’m feeling my way up now.

When heaven puts a hand on me
Come and share my blessings.

Naeto C

Firstst day of the year
my best-friend died in a car crash.
Couple of months before that, I survived in a car crash.
Now that's the irony of life
She was good enough to be a wife
I only cry once a year but that year, I cried thrice.
So dear friend, let me give you an advice
Keep your loved ones close cos they won't live twice
I should have told her how I felt but I couldn't be precise.
I didn't reply her emails even though she broke down her feelings in detail.
I was busy dealing with all sorts of female
Now it's hard for me to even open up my g.mail
I wish she had the same luck as me
but that's what i couldn't give unluckily.
And so I pray that my blessings extend
to the rest of my family and friends.

Hook

It’s moving over me
It’s taking over me
And I’m feeling my way up now.

When heaven puts a hand on me
Come and share my blessings.


Asa

Gbogbo ohun tan fe
...iyen lan fe f'omode ati awon agba
Eh Iya mi
Ireti mi
Koni dofo
Koni daru
Lai

I'm moving on
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine (let it shine)

Hook

It’s moving over me
It’s taking over me
And I’m feeling my way up now.

When heaven puts a hand on me
Come and share my blessings.

la la la la la la
yes Boss!

WHAT I HATE THE MOST?


There are somethings which I just find "Impossible" to bear. Some people might feel the word "HATE" might be too strong to describe these feelings, but trust me, this thing hurts more than you think.
It happens that I'm, in a position to change some of these "Situations" but, I just cant help some of them. And even when I try to run away from them, they begin to vehemently put their faces in mine.
I'm gonna share a number of them with you, and you can share yours by leaving a comment below.
I hate it when My Boss who happens to be a novice on a subject keeps pushing a wrong decision/view at me.
(Sometimes, I feel like punching him in the face, but that might cost me my job.)
I hate it when an Adult authoritatively displays his/her foolishness.
(Sometimes I try to correct them, but they'll mostly use their age as a reason they should be wiser than me, while some will even claim experience is the best teacher.)
I hate it when Someone repeatedly refuses to take correction.
(Dude, no one is an Island of knowledge. You shouldn't hoard it, neither should you refuse new ones. It's impossible to know everything, but it's possible to learn something New.)
I hate it when Someone tells a lie right to my face.
(Sometimes, I already know the truth, but will keep leading the person on, just for the fun. But it gets a lot more annoying when the person in question is openly trying to make a fool of you.)
I hate it when I'm telling the truth to a person, but the person just wouldn't believe me.
(Excuse me Sir/Miss, Not everybody that lie like you do, so believing me might just do you some good.)
I hate it when The Person I'm trying to ignore keeps putting himself in my face.
(Irrespective of the fact I'm actually shunning, ignoring, shutting or even giving him the "silence treatment" He just won't get the message.)
I hate it when I'm trying to talk to a girl, and she believes I'm hitting on her.
(Is there nothing else a guy can talk to a girl about other than asking her out or hitting on her? come on.... Even when I'm trying to ask for directions, she's busy trying to "form levels." If I wanted to ask you out, I'll not be asking all the questions, I'll be forthright with you)
I hate it when a girl I'm not interested in keeps throwing herself at me.
(Ladies, please, if he's not interested let him be. If I'm not interested, someone else will surely someone else will be. So just let me be.)
I hate it when someone wants to force me to love a song.
(We don't share the same brain, so I wouldn't necessarily love everything you love. Your best choice might be the worst to me, this shouldn't make you pick offense. And if I tell you I don't like it, then put it off or listen to it alone.)
N.B: This also applies to books, movies, artist, athletes, sports, clubs, videos, and every other thing.
I hate it when an established artist begins to put out trash songs.
(Do they take us for fools. You are a success today doesn't mean we the fans will follow your lead blindly. If you have no sensible song, just shut up, and we'll continue to celebrate your past glories.)
I hate it when a person continually puts up with an undeserving spouse.
(Relationships are meant to be enjoyed and not endured. He makes your life a liveing hell, cheats on you, beats you, treats you like trash, then what are you still doing with him? Trust me, there are over a thousand and one guy who'll be happy to have you. Leave him alone and move on with your life.)
N.B: This also applies to guys. And no Guy or Lady is so good that You'll die if you don't date her. GROW UP PLEASE.
There are still a lot of them, but I'll leave the rest for another day.

The fact is the things sometimes act as comic relief to me, but when it gets over-bearing it begins to piss me off.Feel free to share with us some acts, habits, or things that annoy you.

Song For The Day: T.I and Chris Brown - Get Back Up




This is My song for the day, It describes exactly How I'm feeling.
It's a song for everyone who's stuck at the bottom of life's cycle, It's a song of hope and encouragement for the despairing, It's a song of succor.
The most important lesson I learned from the song is that in our strive for perfection and success, we'll make a lot of mistakes, we'll go through the ups and downs of life, but it's our response to such situations that makes all the difference.
No matter the mistake you have made, or the situation you find yourself in, don't give-up, as lond as there is still breath in you, then there should still be a will, desire and strength to keep the struggle going.
Never Forget, "When they Push You down, You'd better get back Up."





Here's the Lyrics:
T.I ft Chris Brown – Get Back Up Lyrics

[T.I]
I’m only human dawg
I’m only human dawg
I’m only human dawg

[Chris Brown]
Can you forgive me
It’s an SOS to let me be me

[T.I]
ay, ay, ay listen to me
And when they push you down,
you got to get back up
And when they push you down,
you got to get back up

[T.I]
Push the dirt off your jersey than go for the cup
or the trophy or the ring, champion no matter what
cause when you got the belt and the ring
people with ya poppin bottles, taking pictures look around
as soon as you fall down all the haters pass a judgement
surprise, i’m here to show that I’ma rise above this

Ay, what it is World
yeah it’s me again, back before you, at your mercy
don’t bend your knee again, no running from the truth
as much as we pretend, that it aint what it is, than it hits CNN
apologies to my fans and my closest friends, (I’m sorry)
for letting you down, I wont take you down this road again
most of you now saying whatever, here we go again
blogs, radio, and television all going in
I laugh to keep from crying through all of the embarrasment
I gotta say you f-cking haters is hilarious
how dare you sit right there and act as if you holier than thou
point your finger now with me looking down
same clown that was twitpic’ing at my wedding
on the same twitter page disrespecting
wait a second (hold up)
never mind my imperfections this is fact, remember that
no mistakes too great to recover and bounce back

[Chris Brown]
and when they push you down, you got to get back up
and when they push you down, you got to get back up

[T.I]
Push the dirt off your jersey than go for the cup
or the trophy or the ring, champion no matter what
cause when you got the belt and the ring
people with ya poppin bottles, taking pictures look around
as soon as you fall down all the haters pass a judgement
surprise, i’m here to show that I’ma rise above this

[T.I]
I admit, yeah, I done some dumb sh-t,
disappointed everybody I know
try not to hold that against me though
my road to redemption has no GPS
so guess the time must be invested for this to be manifested
yes it’s hard living life in the spotlight
trying to dodge the haters same time as the cop light
the bible say “let he without sin cast the stone first” (stone first)
the sinner or the one who judged him, who was wrong first?
yeah he go to work, never done no drugs or to be fair
he just drink his liquor, touch his kids, beat his wife instead
difference is, my shortcomings hit the media
thanks to TMZ, the AJC and Wikipedia
see the stairway to heaven while stepping down Jacob’s ladder
my good outweigh the bad, God, aint that what really matters, nope
a matter of fact I’m wrong but after that the good i’ve done in your hood
should it overshadow that?
got the World laughing at me for the moment
but it gonna be your turn ‘fore it’s over with
even if you so legit that you get a house with a dog and a picket fence
the people with you then but when they turn on you remember this

[Chorus]
Push the dirt off your jersey than go for the cup
or the trophy or the ring, champion no matter what
cause when you got the belt and the ring
people with ya poppin bottles, taking pictures look around
as soon as you fall down all the haters pass a judgement
surprise, i’m here to show that I’ma rise above this

[Chris Brown]
Hello, out there
can you hear me
can you hear me
ah, ah, ah, ah
can you (hear you)
hello, out there,
can you hear me
you gotta get you
you gotta gotta believe in me
hey

[T.I]
I accept full responsibilty for the all the wrong I’ve done
If y’all thought I were perfect
I apologise for being human man
but never again partner
you can put my life on that

[Chorus]

And you can love me, or you can leave me
before you judge me, just let me be me
and you can love me or either leave me
before you judge me, see life aint easy
[End]
