It's a new month beautiful and talented souls. I welcome you all to the Afritunes community contest week 64. It's a new month to participate and have fun and as always, I'm glad.
Shout out to all my Friends here, you rock 🔥 and guess what??? This month is going to be super great for all of us here.
I still remain utymarvel and I'm back on your screens with one of my Favourites. My Choice of song this week is Jailer by ASA.
Jailer was the very first song I learnt performed by Asa, seconded by There's fire on the mountain…………
Asa remains my favorite female artist here in the Nigerian Music industry. She has good ways with words. There's so much expression in her lyrics. Her songs are always poetic and soothing to the nerves. She is unique and stands out amongst others with her style of music.
She is bold while using her Word, expression g whatever she feels withouti ding the consequences. She has some moves like Bob Marley, Fela Kuti and the rest.
JAILER is the True cry of anyone that has been victimized by security Agents. This masterpiece was brought to light in the year 2007 with every single word of it TRUTH.
Watch this piece, enjoy, comment, reblog, upvote, T for Thenks…🤗
(Song Lyrics)[https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/asa/jailer.html]
"Jailer"
I'm in chains you're in chains too
I wear uniforms and you wear uniforms too
I'm a prisoner,
You're a prisoner too Mr Jailer
I have fears you have fears too
I will die, you sef go die too
Life is beautiful
Don't you think so too Mr Jailer
[Chorus:]
I'm talking to you jailer
Stop calling me a prisoner
Let he who is without sin -
Be the first to cast the stone Mr Jailer, Mr Jailer Man
You suppress all my strategies
You oppress every part of me
What you don't know,
You're a victim too Mr Jailer
You don't care about my point of view
If I die another will work for you
So you treat me like a modern slave Mr Jailer
[Chorus]
You see, if you're walking in a market place
Don't throw stones
Even if you do, you just might hit
One of your own
Life is not about your policies
All the time
So you better rearrange your
Philosophies and be good to your Fellow man
Jailer
[Chorus x2]
I hear my baby say
I wanna be president
I wan chop money
From my government
What he don't know
What he won't know
What he can't know
Jailer, Jailer oh
Be good oh [x3] somebody
Be good oh [x6]
Jailer, Jailer
