Hello Music lovers on Hive,
Welcome to Hive open Mic week 220, And the Theme for this week is TIME.
My cover for the week will be,
▶️ HUSTLE by TENI.
You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday most of the time. What's the essence of emphasising more on our problems when we don't have power over it, give it time problem comes problem goes that's whats make up of this life.
Hustle, the pain behind fame in new music Video, if you've ever experienced the pains and sacrifices to attain success, then you will agree well with Hustle by Teni.
The song, Hustle talk about the struggle behind success and fame, Sometimes it feels like success is a trap first sentence in the song, where some may seems to have it easy, the road to success is mostly covered with tears , criticism, fear and loses, not many where born with silver spoon in their mouth, many had it rough in life , but Living in a Ghetto doesn't mean we should be tout, we all were born with dreams in us, a life without one is meaningless.
Sometimes I gat pour water untop my head make this pressure no go drive me insane ooo
Teni finds herself between the life struggles in a mother who criticize her ambition for music and a father who believed in her dream, unfortunately that loving father who believe in her daughters dream met with an untimely death, died in an accident after his car was plunged into the lagoon.
Everything went AWOL for Teni after then, but she caught up with her music career after some months and didn't give up, Her fathers demise couple with the family pressure and the hatred of her mom towards her dream, gave her the motivation to keep moving.
Teni understand that tough time don't last but tough people do.
If Teni didn't give it time and gave up her dream , that will be all.
Lastly, Your time is your life.
SONG LYRICS
I wan talk my mind o
For anyone wey fit relate o
Ri di mah kool a yooo
Sometimes it feels like success is a trap
And sometimes it feels like people don’t understand
Cos the pressure e plenty and expectations high
Even your day ones wey suppose get your back
Sometimes day ones dey fight
And everybody has an opinion
On how you suppose live your life
And even people wey suppose to show you the way
Na the people dey backbite
No be pride no be ego
Sometimes I gas change my mind
Sometimes I gas dey behind
Sometimes I will have to say no
Sometimes I gas pour water on top my head
Make this pressure no drive me insane o
So if you see me outside and I no greet you
No vex baba my head e full o
And baba you know the level
Na this hustle I dey so
(Aye aye ah aye aye ah aye aye ah)
Na this hustle I dey so
(Aye aye ah aye aye ah aye aye ah)
This hustle can be so overwhelming sometimes
No add your own join my own
I gat so many things I dey reason
No bother me o
Wo ni iru pala pala wo gan gan l'eleyi
Ki lo se t'enikan o se ri o
Cos family go call enemy go call
I don’t know who is who
No be pride no be ego
Sometimes I gas stay away
When I have nothing to say
Sometimes I will have to say no
Sometimes I gas pour water on top my head
Make this pressure no drive me insane o
So if you see me for show and I no greet you
No vex baba my head e full o
And baba you know the level
Na this hustle I dey so
(Aye aye ah aye aye ah aye aye ah)
Na this hustle I dey so
(Aye aye ah aye aye ah aye aye ah)
Of course of course them say Teni pompous yeah
Cos I put myself first.
