Opomolero by Angel, is a song I have been signing since I was little, did many choreographies with, danced to.
Up until this week I realise I had never really paid keen attention to the lyrics and its meaning. Now doing a cover
It to me is a declaration of faith unashamedly ("I look them face and I tell then say"). It reminds me of the unexplainable joy I feel whenever I am in the service, in church for either a fellowship meeting or rehearsal meeting.
I am of God, for God, and to God. All that I am will forever unashamedly declare the praise of my God upon the earth.
Said in my heart and in my soul
Everything dey alright I dey kampe
Owa leyin mi oluwa mi
