AfriTunes Week #135: Ijoba Orun BY Lara George | Cover by @adese

It is another wonderful opportunity to participate in afritune weekly contest. Lately I have been busy with work and so it has not given me to the platform to have dropped my entry long earlier but like they always say, it is never late than never.

Thinking through as what song should I make for this week, the first song that came to my mind was Ijoba orun by Lara George. One of the song I listened to years ago and I must say it really speak a lot of messages.

The inspiration behind me picking this song and even loving this song is it always makes me cautious of what life is after this life on earth and makes me to carefully evaluate the way I live my life.

Every single time of our life, we need to always be cautious of life after death. As a believer, I am always cautious to know that this earth is not my permanent home and I should really be cautious and careful how I live my life.

Song Lyrics

Ìjọba ọrùn lérè onígbàgbọ́ o
