CREATIVE-SUNDAY || DAREY - PRAY FOR ME (COVER) BY WEALTHWESS

Hello, Hive Learners community and Happy Sunday to everyone. I am wealthwess by name a musician and a lover of good music. Making songs and cover of a song is my own way of getting creative so for this weeks edition of Creative Sunday, I will be making a cover of a song by Darey featuring Soweto Choir and the tittle is Pray For Me. I like this song because it has meaning it’s not just any random song you can use for party or owambe gathering, this song goes beyond that because it conveys a message to the youth or the young ones that is just taking the footsteps into the world in other to become their own man or woman. Pray For Me passes a message that it’s not always as easy as the young ones thought that leaving there home and going into the cruel world to make end means will be easy, No, it’s not because some people goes through extreme struggles once they are out there and most of them fall into temptation and lost there ways. I believe that’s why Pray For Me is used as the title of this song because prayer is indeed key and which every parent can use as light to guard their children’s. That being said, I hope you’ll find my acapella cover worthy, so stay tuned, enjoy the cover and the rest of your Sunday.

Pray For Me / Lyrics

Verse 1
Woke up one Sunday morning
Told my daddy I'm leaving home
I'm going off to the city tomorrow
Even though I don't know where to go
And daddy said “son don't be a fool,
Cos life in the city is unbelievable
You could get broken o you're just a lil’ boy
And you may never find your way”

And I said; I know I could get lost (I know ah)
I know I could get broken (I know ah)
Forgive me father but I gotta take a chance
Oh I'm already gone so just

Hook
Pray for me (Gbadura fun mi)
Pray I find my way (K’ori ba mi se) (that my destiny paves the way)
Forgive me father but I gotta take a chance
Oh I'm already gone so just…

Verse 2
Hello Daddy how you doin’?
Hope mamas doing ok?
It's been 4 years and eleven months now
Mo gbo pe Aduke ti di agba (I hear Aduke is all grown)
You were right when you said to me
That life in the city is unbelievable
Had to struggle just to get by everyday
And I could barely find my way, sugbon (nevertheless)
Mo mo pe mo le sina (o da mi Loju) (I know I could get lost) (I’m cocksure)
Tori pe aiye le (aiye yi soro) (For the world is difficult) (This world is perilous)
Forgive me father but I gotta take a chance
But I'm already gone so just…

And I said; I know I could get lost (I know ah)
I know I could get broken (I know ah)
Forgive me father but I gotta take a chance
Oh I'm already gone so just

Hook
Pray for me (Gbadura fun mi)
Pray I find my way (K’ori ba mi se) (that my destiny paves the way)
Forgive me father but I gotta take a chance
Oh I'm already gone so just…
