BRINGING BACK HISTORY

There is nothing in earth that lasts forever. One time something is reigning and in the top 3 most interesting, the next time it has gradually faded away without being noticed.

Even we as humans who has dominion over the earth, we still fade gradually with time.

There is a hypothesis that entered my head earlier this morning and the hypothesis is as follows: everything we do on earth, wether good or bad, leads us closely to to our grave (fading away). I have not actually made research to prove this, so it is still hypothesis.

There are many things that have faded away in my surrounding, ranging from people's character to fashion. Worthy of note is music.

In Nigeria, we have really good music. Music that actually feels good to listen and we have great musicians like davido, Wizkid, Burna boy, shalipopi, omaylay, naira marley e.t.c.

The music industry has proven it's capacity in Nigeria and the musics that are being produced as said earlier are very good.

However, compared to the music that was sang by musicians like Fela Kuti, Bob Marley e.t.c, the songs we are listening to today are trash. Yes, they have no meaning.

Personally, I see music as a medium of communication. A path through which one can reach out to the world and get their voice heard. I see music as something that comes from the heart of the singer, ad touches the heart of the listening.

Music is not all about good beat, but also about meaningful lyrics.

These have faded from my country and the songs that we have currently are those that talks about ass, pussy, and sex, Omah lay is an example of a musician that sings this type of song.

I am not saying that we do not have any singer who sings something meaningful in Nigeria currently, we do, but the thing is that their voice are not heard and their message are not passed.

Also, another thing that have changed drastically in my country is the government. I remember when Dr Goodluck was seated on the presidential seat, things were much more easier even though we complained.

The price of things was way more cheaper, the NGN/USD exchange was cheap and we could live comfortably without any stress.

Currently, the story of how Nigeria changed is too heavy to be told.

WHAT I WILL LIKE TO BRING BACK

There are two things I will love to bring back if I had the power.

The first thing is good music. Good music moves the soul and set a person in another dimensional level.

I will really love to bring music that talks sense, and if possible, change the beat and use the beat of nowadays.

Secondly, the thing I will love to bring back is our previous government. The current government has changed the country to an extent where the cost of living is as high as living in space while getting supplies from earth.

I wish there was a way to bring things to being how it used to be, but it is practically impossible.

It is easy to change something involving a few people but it is very difficult to change something involving an entire country.

The one thing my body knows how to do best is to adapt to any situation it finds itself without worry of anything.

Sir Peter Obi who ran for the president last year with intensions of changing Nigeria failed. The things happening in the system is our of my league and I don't want to end up in a bad place because I want to play the game of Nigerian politics..
Instead of wasting time trying to change it, I better loor for ways to make it out big. Hard times bring about plenty of opportunities, however, I am going to go for those opportunities and get what I need out of the hardship.

Same applies to the musical aspect, I would not want to change anything even though deep down I want to, I am not ready to start going through the stress.

I have not yet brought anyone into this earth through fertilization, so I think, I will want to build a family and carter for them first, before thinking of changing anything.
