Heal The World!!!

in #esteem6 years ago

I just listened to a great song from one of Nigeria's artist called Patoranking titled "HEAL THE WORLD". I felt so emotional whenever I listen to that song. It's one of my best song so far because there's lot of in dept wisdom to derive from it. I almost cried the first day I heard the song. With a beautiful lyrics and well blended with good musical sounds.

He talks about the crazy world, how bad things have gone by. The maltreatment, the killings, the chaos around the world. The looting from government officials, the endless experiences of bad government especially in Africa. How, public funds re spent by just fear greedy individuals, how people want to kill just to gain power into political offices.

This song from Patoranking is heavily loaded. It was only back in those days we enjoy musicians who were mostly singing as activist with their great lyrical in dept. I could remember the likes of Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Bob Marley, Lucky Dube, Ras kimono etc. These musicians put government and nations on their toes to do what's right. I'm so proud of them all!

Let's checkout some verses of this song " HEAL THE WORLD"
Girls fighting over Gemini and
pisces, every corner it's war and crisis
Boko Haram, Al-Qaeda and ISIS,
how come the poor people are the nicest?
Africa blessed with lotta beautiful history
But these people makes we feel like everything is a mystery
They make we live we lives in jittery,
we pray to God father to give us victory
Take a look round the city now, no love oh what ah pity now
21 look 50 now, hatred make things shitty now
Back then she is a cutie now, you no longer do your duty now
You follow girls with big botty now,
all you do is booting and looting now

Just see through the above lyrics, that's the first stanza. It's self explanatory and I love it so much. How I'd wish people pay attention to great music!

After the first stanza comes a beautiful chorus where my soul desires the world was cold like this song.
So heal the world, heal the world, spread love and heal the world
Heal the world, heal the world, let love fill the world
Heal the world, heal the world, spread love and heal the world
Heal the world, heal the world, let love fill the world
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh

Another touching part of this great song was the second stanza, where it talks about the predicament of a family. How terrible the lives of the poor re and what people suffer just because they don't have enough money in their pocket, clustered with bad leadership makes life so hopeless to the less privilege.
Sickness is the status pon her Dp now, her mother dying of BP now
Father no get no TP now, she ah fail in school, low GP now
False prophets dem preaching now, fear thing dem teaching now
The girl dem bleaching now and the boy dem snitching now
Who am I to do the judging now, when everything is not original
Bad mind and grudging now, Father Lord the thing ah purge me now

In conclusion, this great song teaches us to heal the world and the only way we can heal the world is through LOVE. Love they said is the greatest weapon to live together with people around the world. Love does not hurt, does not hate, does not loot, does not cheat, does not kill, love does not underrate others. Love brings people to accomplish goals. Spread the LOVE and HEAL the world.

Heal the world, heal the world, heal the world, heal the world
