A Tribute to a dear friend who passed on on May 16th, 2014
I’d do that and add a yacht
For you to sail back in style along the River Nile
Where we’d sit at the banks and count the miles
The blade of Abaddon has abandoned a wound in my heart
It cut you in your prime, just like that!
I send my tribute with tributaries of tears
That alas can’t bring you hence
If I could make a wish, I'll make a wish
That you and Shekau should make a switch
But where you go he cannot tread
My wish is...certified dead!
Rest on, dear friend.

Dead Wish
If I could send a river of tears to bring you back upon its backI’d do that and add a yacht
For you to sail back in style along the River Nile
Where we’d sit at the banks and count the miles
The blade of Abaddon has abandoned a wound in my heart
It cut you in your prime, just like that!
I send my tribute with tributaries of tears
That alas can’t bring you hence
If I could make a wish, I'll make a wish
That you and Shekau should make a switch
But where you go he cannot tread
My wish is...certified dead!
Rest on, dear friend.
